Once you imported  the controller you can call any function of this controller. <?php    //Import controller   App : : import ( 'Controller' , 'SmsOutgoings' ) ;    class ReportsController extends AppController {           public function add ( ) {           $message = "Notification: New report submitted!" ;           //Instantiation          $SmsOutgoings = new SmsOutgoingsController ;        //Call a method from SmsOutgoingsControllerwith parameter        $SmsOutgoings - > notify_user ( $user_id , $message ) ;      }    } ?>    Other way is by using the requestAction() function <?php class ReportsController extends AppController {           public function add ( ) {           $message =

<?php   //users controller   if ($this -> User -> save($this -> request -> data)) {                 if ($this -> request -> data[ 'User' ][ 'id' ] == AuthComponent :: User( 'id' )){ //if current logged in user   update user session data                   $this -> Session -> write( 'Auth.User.first_name' , $this -> request -> data [ 'User' ] [ 'first_name' ]); //updating first_name only                       $this -> Session -> write( 'Auth.User.username' , $this -> request -> data [ 'User' ] [ 'username' ]); //updating username only                                 $this -> Session -> write( 'Auth.User' , array_merge ( AuthComponent :: User(), $this -> request -> data[ 'User' ]) );   / /updating all user session data                 }                 $this -> Session -> setFlash( 'The user has been saved' );
