The values of some of the fields I created on the Order Form do not appear in any Views; the columns are empty. This although the attributes exist, the fields on the form are correctly linked to the attributes, the values in the fields on the forms contain non-zero values and the correct columns are added to all Views.
The fields correctly appear as columns in the Views, but these columns are all empty.
Any clue anyone ?

Hi Peter
Thanks a lot, this is it! I made the field read/write, opened and saved a few orders and saw the fields getting filled before my eyes. All (-; I now have to do is to go trough all orders and open/save them to submit the values to the database
Although it did solve this problem, can you tell me where I can read a bit more about the background of this ? I am still somewhat intrigued.
You are you saying because the field is read-only, it's value is not sent during a form submit. Because the assumption is that no change can occur to a read-only field ? And the database will always hold the initial value (null). And if I somehow (by a script) manipulate a read-only field value, it should not reach the database either ? Why does a form reload then show the new value ? Do the onchange scripts run at form load ? Or is there a cache somewhere in between that fools me ?
Thanks again
Niko
Hi Niko
I have the same thing with Phone Call activities - please let me know if you have any luck solving this. I've also found that I DO see the data if I look at the same view using advanced find. Do you find the same?

Hi Niko,
try setting
crmForm.all.linx_calctcv.ForceSubmit = true;
Since thi is a read-only field CRM does not send its value during submit.
Ciao,
Peter
Dear Leon,
Thanks for your quick reply. We were at roll-up 4 and ran roll-up 5 over the weekend. Unfortunately it did not change CRM's behavior; the fields shown on the forms do contain values, but in the views there are still no values in the respective columns.
Some additional info that may be helpful: I calculate the value of one of these fields, linx_calctcv by multiplying the values of 3 other fields (linx_nrc, linx_mrc and linx_term); the onchange script of these 3 fields is shown below.
var term = crmForm.all.linx_term.DataValue;
var nrc = crmForm.all.linx_nrc.DataValue;
var mrc = crmForm.all.linx_mrc.DataValue;
var result = term*12*mrc + nrc;
crmForm.all.linx_calctcv.DataValue = result;
As soon as a user changes one of the 3 fields, the correct value of linx_calctcv appears in linx-calctcv on the order form. I would now expect any view in which this order record appears to show this value as well, but no.
This field is read-only, so a user cannot change it directly, but I don't think this should cause the above problem.
Again, any clues ?
Thanks
