Select multiple records to add to a grid

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

I have 1:N relationship between entitiy A and B. I want to have a grid on the form of entity A with a button on the right corner (something like the + button of the out of box crm grid) when I click it i want to see a model window showing a grid with all the records of entity B and I want to be able to select as many records as I want then click an Add button on the model window which would close the model window and refresh only the grid on the form A where the new associated records of entity B will be visible. I think the only way to do it is to create an html web resource for the grid and the model window. Am I right? If so, how can i make my html web resource look like crm? Is there a framework out there that helps with developing htm webresource that have the look and feel of crm? Thank you in advance guys.

    Hi Walloud,

    You can show associated Grid in an iframe or use JqGrid plugin in a custom html. This will look similar to CRM Grid and also you can change some of the styles if required.

    Please have a look at below post.It is same post as your query.

    This can be achieved by using N:N relationship. If you specifically need 1:N relationship than you will have have to create records of the other entity and you can still add multiple records but the lookup field of the main entity should not be mandatory. But if you select a record which is already associated with another record, that will be overwritten. So change the view to show only non associated records in the lookup view.
