Hi Team,

I was try to set the option set value through javascript on a bulk edit form, I enabled the javascript Onload function on the Bulk Edit, and written this line of code in my onload function Xrm.Page.getAttribute("result").setValue(2); This line gets executed set the value but at some point the CRM is changing this to null.I am wondering if this is a bulk edit limitation ? because the same works fine on a single record onload.

Thanks in Advance...!!!

Regards,

Awad.

RE: CRM 2016 Bulk Edit -Unable to Set Option Set Value through Javascript.

Hi Awad,

I am also facing the same issue but not for bulk edit. I am just setting the option set value from parent record to child record using javascript on load. Unfortunately it's a global optionset. I have 5 values in the optionset. Out of which for the first 4, the values are setting up in the child record. Only for the 5th value which is added newly to the set, it is not getting set on the child record. Instead, null value is pushed. Can you please let me know if your issue is resolved. If so, what is the solution to mitigate it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ryan,

The field name is "Result" and is of type Option Set. and it is a global option set and is used in multiple entities. I am try to set a default Option value to this option set when the users do a bulk edit of Assessment Result Records, as in most of the cases the option set value they select as "completed" option when entering the results using Bulk Edit form. And this way they will save time while entering the results.

Thanks & Regards,

Awad.

Hey Awad, changing the value of BehaviorInBulkEdit is not supported or recommended. The documentation for <event> (FormXml) states For internal use only. Do not change this value.

It's difficult to recommend an alternate approach without knowing what this field is, and the reason behind the business requirement to set the value when doing bulk edits.
