Hi,

I have doubt how to achieve the autosave functionality in javascript. I have concatenated two fields and setting value to another text field,after that I have to save the form.

Can anyone  give some idea how the auto functionality is working behind in CRM.

    Autosave functionality save data after a specified interval of 30 sec automatically, you can enable disable this option at organization level. You go through below KB for more information:

    technet.microsoft.com/.../dn531073.aspx

    blogs.msdn.com/.../manage-auto-save.aspx

    Through java script you can call save method as suggested by others.

    Thanks

    Hi Kishore,

    Hope you know that CRM auto saves the form regularly. To save the form after field concatenation use 'Xrm.Page.data.entity.save();' function. Hope this helps.

    Thanks And regards
