I would like to make fields appear in a form after they're filled during the steps of a business process flow, so people don't try to fill these fields before the have to, but can still see the filled fields easily after the step.

Help me! :D

Hi Vincent,

I think it's possible via JavaScript triggered OnLoad and OnChange for the field.

Basically what the method should do is following

function setControlVisible() { if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("yourField").getValue() != null) { Xrm.Page.getControl("yourField").setVisible(true); } else { Xrm.Page.getControl("yourField").setVisible(false); } }

Hope this helps,

Radu

I would also expect you could do this via a Business Rule

Hmm so I tried with a Business Rule first, but the problem is that the field also disappear in the business process flow (it is the same field).

Do you have any idea how to make it work?

Is it possible ?

By the way the problem would probably be the same with the javascript code.

Hi Vincent,

by using JavaScript, the field in bpf will not hide as long as you do not includeheader_process before the field schema name, because the field schema name in bpf is a bit different compared to form field. Refer to below post.
