JS onLoad form notification help (only show when field contains data)

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi all,

I'm trying to show a form notification when a specific field on the form contains data.

I'm not good with Javascript, but have pieced together the below:

function ResellerAlert(executionContext) {

    var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

    var reseller = formContext.getAttribute("parentaccountid");

    if (reseller != null) {

        formContext.ui.setFormNotification("This account has a Reseller listed, please check before quoting.""WARNING");

    }

}


The problem I have is that the notification shows all the time. Even if the 'reseller' field is empty


The 'reseller' field is a lookup field to another account.


What am I doing wrong?

    I've discovered what was wrong.

    for anybody searching this in future, i was missing 'getvalue()' from the 'getAttribute()' function.

    new code as below:

    function ResellerAlert(executionContext) {

       var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

       var reseller = formContext.getAttribute("parentaccountid").getValue();

       if (reseller != null) {

           formContext.ui.setFormNotification("This account has a Reseller listed, please check before quoting.", "WARNING");

       }

    }
