Hello,
I've been receiving the following error in my code once I've injected it onto my form - formContext.ui.tabs.get(...).setDisabled is not a function
Here is my code:
function HideAndDisableTabsBasedOnBPFStage(executionContext) { var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); // Hide and disable tabs based on the current BPF stage var bpfStageId = formContext.data.process.getActiveStage().getId(); switch (bpfStageId) { case "abbda151-be8f-462a-99b9-b32231baadaf": // Hide and disable tabs for Request stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "ea3aa60c-f952-4edb-b955-c78c2cebc3a6": // Hide and disable tabs for Court Approver stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "0d92ffa6-786d-4e4b-b790-695f4495c7a7": // Hide and disable tabs for Court Approver (non-charging) stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "bdcfd44f-6b69-47ef-9785-a7a3c029169c": // Hide and disable tabs for JBSIS stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "bccdfa2d-831a-4f4e-a370-c0d3b130914b": // Hide and disable tabs for Finance stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "fcfaceed-fc37-4dde-9351-f8942fe2b73f": // Hide and disable tabs for CTS Review stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break; case "f712096e-f750-4b6e-a10e-0e8d3184387e": // Hide and disable tabs for CTS Entry stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(true); break; default: break; } } // Add event handlers for OnLoad and OnStageChange events Xrm.Page.data.process.addOnLoad(HideAndDisableTabsBasedOnBPFStage); Xrm.Page.data.process.addOnStageChange(HideAndDisableTabsBasedOnBPFStage);
I'd also like to note that if I delete all the setDisabled code and leave the setVisible code, the script executes perfectly. Not sure why it is not working for setDisabled even though I see a lot of documentation online where the code is the same in my script above.
Hi AK91,Not sure what is it you are trying to do. you can't disable a section/tab - there is no setDisabled() method:learn.microsoft.com/.../formcontext-ui-tabs
Thanks,Manoj Mane.Please mark this as VERIFIED if it helps.
Hi Manoj Mane ,
As my business process flow progresses to different stages, I would like to hide/disable other tabs on my form. So, for instance, when my BPF reaches the 'JBSIS' stage, I want to display the Requestor and Court Approver tabs but not allow the users to edit the information within them.
case "bdcfd44f-6b69-47ef-9785-a7a3c029169c": // Hide and disable tabs for JBSIS stage formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").sections.get("General").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").sections.get("RequestorInformation").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").sections.get("RequestInformation").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").sections.get("OffenseInformation").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Requestor").sections.get("AdditionalOffenseInformation").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CourtApprover").sections.get("CourtApprover").setDisabled(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_JBSIS").setVisible(true); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTS").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_Finance").setVisible(false); formContext.ui.tabs.get("tab_CTSEntry").setVisible(false); break;
I've tried this code to try disabling the sections within a tab and received the error: formContext.ui.tabs.get(...).sections.get(...).setDisabled is not a function
export function getFormContext(parent?: Window): Xrm.FormContext { //debugger; let context: Xrm.FormContext; if (formContext) { context = formContext; } return context; } //Hide a tab export function hideTab(tabName: string): void { var tab = getFormContext().ui.tabs.get(tabName); if (tab != null) { tab.setVisible(false); } } //show a tab export function showTab(tabName: string): void { var tab = getFormContext().ui.tabs.get(tabName); if (tab != null) { tab.setVisible(true); } }
The only thing that comes to mind why it wouldn't work is I remember when we went from V8 to V9 we had to swap all the 1/0 to true/false but that doesn't seem to be the case
As I was working with the issue, I realized that setVisible can be applied to tabs, however, setDisable can only be applied to individual controls. I was able to modify my code to fit this although it was a bit tedious.
Hi AK91,Yes we can not apply setDisabled() method to the tab/section. You can hide the tabs based on your current selected tab.Thanks,Manoj Mane.Please mark this as VERIFIED if it helps.
