DateTime field: Removing options from Time dropdownlist

Posted on by Community Member

Hello,

In my Phonecall records, I have a field "Due Date", which is a date time field, with the time dropdownlist showing times from 12:00 AM till 11:30 PM. It seems that I will never need to use values from 12:00 AM till 9:00 AM and from 8:00 PM to 11:30 PM Is there a way i can remove these values from the time dropdown using javascript or any other method?

Thanks,

Hi SB,

You can hide it dynamically at the time of from loading, Please see the below syntax :

var control = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("fieldname");

control.removeOption(value);

value will be your optionset value which you want to remove

fieldname is the name of your optionset field.

I appreciate your replies, but I think it would need more work. The attribute scheduledend contains multiple controls. One for Date and one for time. How can I access the Time dropdownlist control using javacript?

I managed to do the following:

Xrm.Page.getAttribute('scheduledend').controls.forEach( function (control, i) { if (i==1) {
control.getControlType(); // result is : standard control.getName(); // result is : header_scheduledend
control.setLabel('Test'); // changes the Time control label to "Test" } } );

Does this get us any closer to accessing the optionset?

Hello,

There is no supported way of modifying of time control in mentioned way. One thing I see possible is to create own webresource that will replace standard datetime control but that could take a lot of time and I'm not sure that it is worth to develop it.
