Hi.
In Dynamics CRM I have a requirement to display a popup screen to the user off the click of a button on the ribbon within a particular CRM record.
On this popup there will be two checkboxes, so the user can choose one or both options.
I have tried implementing this as a custom page - with 2 checkboxes, a Cancel button & a Submit button.
I am able to pass down an object via a JSON string to the custom page.
I'm opening the custom page using a Javascript Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo call.
I assumed I would be able to pass the items selected by the user back to the calling javascript method when the submit button was clicked, but it seems this cannot be easily done.
The suggestion I have seen in a couple of places involves storing a record to a dataverse table on the click of the submit button & then reading that record back in the calling javascript.
is there truly no other way to achieve this nowadays? It seems hacky in the extreme.
If it cannot be done - anyone have any other recommendations of a good way to achieve the requirement of allowing the user to select values off the click of a ribbon button (they have the ability to select from one of two specific contacts but can also select both of them). It doesn't seem to fit the out of the box alert popups.
Any advice appreciated.
