How to set Value of Field on click of button

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi experts, 

I've created a button on ribbon workbench and I have a single line of text field on my case form called new_timer. 

I have added a javascript action on my button to check if the field is empty and also set the value of the field to "Inactive" onclick. 

Im using the following code but it doesn't seem to be working:

function CheckValue() 
{
        var phoneNo = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_timer').getValue();
        if (phoneNo != null)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
setValue();
}

function setValue()
{
Xrm.Page.getAttribute("phoneNo").setValue(Inactive);

}

    You have to call the setValue() before return statement & as others suggested the value "Inactive" should be enclosed in double quotes.  This  should solve the problem

    I tried my code with only the second function and it works. But when I call the second function from the first function, it doesnt work.

    Hi,

    In the same replace the attribute name with your field name.

    function CheckValue()

    {

           var phoneNo = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_timer').getValue();

           if (phoneNo != null)

               Xrm.Page.getAttribute(Attribute).setValue("Inactive");

    }

    I found there is  wrong in your code - Try with  below code

    function CheckValue() 
{
        var phoneNo = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_timer").getValue();
        if (phoneNo != null)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
setValue();
}

function setValue()
{
Xrm.Page.getAttribute("phoneNo").setValue("Inactive");  /// You need to write inside double quote 

}

    What type of field you are using?

    If its single line text then please use below code.

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldName").setValue("Any value"");

    Hope this helps.

    Mark as answer if its answer your question.
