How to add Custom Controls to D365 F&O.

(4) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hello, hope you're all doing fine
 
i just stumbled across a limitation in the Microsoft D365 F&O form controls, where no control can either do what i exactly want or expose a property that helps with the issue (at hand). So after some research it seams the only option is to create a new Control with my custom behavior (HTML+CSS+JavaScript). But it seams either there's no documentation about it, or the Microsoft Documentation is so vast that it's confusing me.
 
i am just trying to do a very simple "Hello World" control to use later in my form for demonstration purposes, (i even inlined the JavaScript to make it one file, so i don't have to worry about loading stuff).  but even that didn't work.
 
so, if anyone knows about the steps for creating a new custom control, i would appreciate it a lot (if you share).
 
if something is vague or unclear please let me know,
 
Thanks in Advance,
I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    I'm not sure what do you want your control to do exactly, can you please explain further? What functionality are you trying to achieve that isn't possible with the standard controls?

    F&O doesn't support custom form controls. You will have to work with the standard form controls that are available in the Visual Studio form designer, which can probably cover most possible scenarios, if not all of them. Can you explain your requirements in detail as to why you would require creating a new form control?

    You can create custom controls; the keyword you need to use for searching is extensible controls. For example, here is the documentation: Build extensible controls. I also shared a tutorial showing how to create a control with a map.
     
    Depending on your specific needs, a possible alternative may be embedding a Power App rather then creating an F&O control.

    I stand corrected.
