Hey All,

I am using the following code to set the value of an option set field based on the input values from a multi option set field. I receive the error saying "TypeError: formContext.getAttribute(...).SetValue is not a function at SetMultiSelValues "

Error Log:

TypeError: formContext.getAttribute(...).SetValue is not a function
at SetMultiSelValues (ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/.../new_MultipOptionset)
at eval (eval at RunHandlerInternal (ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx), <anonymous>:1:1)
at RunHandlerInternal (ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx)
at RunHandlers (ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx)
at OnScriptTagLoaded (ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx)
at https://ssgrp.crm8.dynamics.com/form/ClientApiWrapper.aspx?ver=-269532236:202:1

Javascript Code: 

function SetMultiSelValues(executionContext)
{
debugger;
var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
var selectedValues = formContext.getAttribute("new_flagreason").getSelectedOption();
var selectedOptionText = formContext.getAttribute("new_flagreason").getText();
if(selectedValues != null){
if(selectedValues != 100000000){
formContext.getAttribute("new_flagstatus").SetValue("100000000");
}
else{
formContext.getAttribute("new_flagstatus").SetValue("100000001");
}
}
}

    Hi GVR,

    It should work without "header" try using

    var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

    formContext.getAttribute("new_flagstatus").setValue("100000000");

    Thanks,

    Shahbaaz

    Hi GVR,

    Try below code, "header_new_flagreason"

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("header_new_flagreason").setValue(intOptionSetValue);

    Thanks,

    Shahbaaz

    You are correct Wei!

    It was a syntax mistake.

    Thanks a lot

    Hi Vighnesh,

    try to set the optionset value like

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute(optionsetAttribute).setValue(intOptionSetValue);

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_flagstatus").setValue(100000000);

    Hi,

    change the below part 

    1. SetValue(100000000); to setValue(100000000); 

    2. SetValue(100000001); to setValue(100000001);
