Hi,
I encountered an error on mobile version of CRM:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'text' of null
It is caused by following line of code:
var statusofsell = Xrm.Page.getControl("header_process_statusofsell").getAttribute().getText();
"statusofsell" is a field on business process flow.
It doesn't occur on browser. (version 9)
I will be grateful for any suggestions!

I have no idea what's wrong but following should make your code work:
1. Put this field to form and make it hidden.
2. Change your code to following:
var statusofsell = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("statusofsell").getText();
According to this article - msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg334409.aspx it should work but if you keep getting errors try following:
var statusofsell = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("statusofsell").getValue() == null ? "" : Xrm.Page.getAttribute("statusofsell").getText();
Field schema name: statusofsell
Screenshots:
1. Web version of business process flow:
2. Mobile version of business process flow:
Field label: Status of this sell
Note that script error pops up only when field is empty- when it contains data, everything works well.
Hi Pocia,
I had a similar issue.
And the reason was the same field having different schema name in web and uci.
Follow following steps
1)open record in web chrome do f12 and check schema of that field.
2) open same entity record in chrome uci format pop out bpf fields collection. Check schema name i.e. Id.
3) the they are different while writting first check null for both schema and put value in a variable.
Var name;
If(formContext.getControl(webschemaname)!==null)
{name=
formContext.getControl(webschemaname).getValue()}
If(formContext.getControl(ucischemaname)!==null)
{name=formContext.getControl(ucischema).getValue()}
Regards,

Try to use following:
var statusofsell = Xrm.Page.getControl("header_process_statusofsell").getAttribute().getValue() == null ? "" : Xrm.Page.getControl("header_process_statusofsell").getAttribute().getText();
Thank you, Oleksandr.
Unfortunately, changing Xrm.Page, to formContext didn't help.
I may add, that when field "status of sell" is filled, the error doesn't occur. Maybe it's a problem with getting text from an empty field?
The script is executed OnLoad.
Hi Pocia,
This is because mobile version of CRM using new UCI interface, which doesn't support Xrm.Page object model. Please use formContext instead of Xrm.Page to be able to use getText in new interface. You can find more about using new client side API model here and about using formContext with getText() function here.
