(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2,175

Hi all,

I've created a custom entity and want to have a lookup field sit on that custom entity pointing to Email Templates in CRM. The reason being is that I want to have a javascript running that copies certain values from the custom entity to a mapped email template.

The problem is that when I create a lookup field, the template entity is not selectable. My question is that is there a way to do this? I basically want users to select a email template and therefore giving me the email template ID which I can then use in my script. If there's another user friendly way for someone to select the template then please let me know.

I have the same question (0)
