CRM365 Jscript get Value from Field in Quick View on Related Entity

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hi--

I'm trying the get the Value of Field, that's located in a QuickView on a Related Entity.

I know how to get the value if it's on the same form; and I know how to get the value of a 'normal' field on a related entity; ...but I can't get the two working together.

Example--

To get the value out of a QuickView I'd use this:

var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("RelatedCaseInformation");
var jobnumberField = quickViewControl.getControl(1).getAttribute("gs_jobnumber").getValue();


 To get value from a Related Entity, I'm using (as an example):

var poField = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("msdyn_purchaseorder").getValue();

	if (poField != null && poField != undefined) {
		// get id
		var poFieldId = poField[0].id;
		var poFieldId = poFieldId.replace('{', '').replace('}', '');
		var poFieldEntity = poField[0].entityType;
		var columns = ['gs_Case'];
		var poFieldRecord = gs_CrmRestKit.Retrieve(poFieldEntity, poFieldId, columns, null);
		
		var Caseno = poFieldRecord.gs_Case;
	}


Any ideas how I can use the latter code to get to the Value of Field in QuickView on a Related Entity?
Maybe something like this (though I've tried and it didn't work):

var poFieldRecord.quickForms.get("RelatedCaseInformation");


 Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    Hi Pete ,

    Could you please try below code . You can enable the debugger and check what you are getting in poField object.

    var poField = Xrm.Page.getControl('manufactureQuickView_manufactureQuickView_new_manufacture_new_Country'); //Replace the id
		if (poField != null && poField != undefined) {
			var id= poField.getValue()[0].id;
			var name= poField.getValue()[0].name;
		}

    Hi Goutam,

    yes thanks. My requirement is a little different though. Basically I need to get to the value on a grandparent record; either via a quickview that exists on the parent, or via a lookup field on the parent.  I can get to the parent fine, but from there I struggle to get to the grandparent.

    thanks,

    pete.

    Hi Guillaume,

    thanks for your quick reply.  Could you give me an example of how to do that 2nd retrieve? I'm trying to get the value/id from but I can't get the syntax right, and I seem unable to find it online.

    I would expect something like :

    var Caseno = poFieldRecord.gs_Case;
Caseno.getValue()[0].id;


     ...but that's not working for me. Any tips would be hugely appreciated!

    Hi,

    I wouldn't try to do it your way but rather do it like that:

    1. get the ID of the related Entity

    2. create a webapi Retrieve call to get the 2nd related record ID(as you have a quick view on the 1st related entity you should have a relationship between the 1st and the 2nd related entity) with CRM rest Builder: github.com/.../CRMRESTBuilder

    3. create a 2nd webapi Retrieve cal to get finally the desired values even those which are not on the quick view form :)
