Issue with FormContext in Subgrid on the Second Page of Subgrid Event

Posted on by VP-14061248-0

Hello,

I'm currently facing an issue with the FormContext in a subgrid, specifically on the second page of a subgrid on record select event. I'm hoping someone here can provide some guidance or shed some light on this problem.

Here's a brief description of the problem I'm encountering:

I have a subgrid on a form that displays a list of related records.
I've implemented a subgrid on the record select event.
On the first page of the subgrid rows, I am able to access the form context in the record select event. However, when I navigate to the second page of the subgrid without clicking on any row of the first page and try to select a record from the second page records, I am unable to get Form Context in on the record select event.

I've checked the available documentation and community resources but haven't found a specific solution to this problem. I suspect there might be something related to the page lifecycle or the way the subgrid event is handled, but I'm not entirely sure.

If anyone has encountered a similar issue or has any insights on why the FormContext might not be available on the second page of a subgrid event, I would greatly appreciate your help. Any suggestions, workarounds, or pointers in the right direction would be immensely valuable.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Best regards,

Vinit Pipaliya.

Next to my response on 7 July, I find a workaround if you want to manipulate grid columns.

For example, this function will disable all columns for a grid "documents". I call this function on OnRecordSelect event.

function DisableAllColumns_DocumentsGrid() {

var docGrid_control = globalformcontext.getControl("documents"); // globalformcontext is a variable initialized on OnLoad event
var docGrid_grid = docGrid_control.getGrid();
var docGrid_selectedrows = docGrid_grid.getSelectedRows();
docGrid_selectedrows.forEach(function (row, i) {

var gridrowdata = row.data;
var gridEntity = gridrowdata.entity;

var attributes = gridEntity.attributes;

attributes.forEach(function (gridattribute, j) {
var name = gridattribute.getName();

var controls = gridattribute.controls;
controls.forEach(function (gridcell, k) {

gridcell.setDisabled(true); // read only
});
});

});

}

Hi

Use Xrm Web Api retrieveMultipleRecords

Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords("Subgrid Entity name", "?$filter=_primarycontactid_value eq "+ YourDynamicIdOfRecord).then(
   function success(results) {
       console.log(results);
       for (var i = 0; i < results.entities.length; i++) {
           var result = results.entities[i];
           // Columns
           var accountid = result["accountid"]; // Guid
       }
   },
   function(error) {
       console.log(error.message);
   }
);
