Hi Tin,

in the ribbon workbench, you have to add a button to the commandbar. To that button you have to assign a command. In the command you have to specify the action (either javascript or url). In that action you can add the parameters.

In case of a javascript call, the sequence of the parameters has to match with the sequence of parameters the javascript function is expecting.

With regard to the parameters you pass, you can pass contact values or dynamic values (like current record etc)

I hope this guides you in the right direction

Hi Tin,

You can pass the account id, you need to resolve the name later on in on the webresource form.

I enclosed a screen shot in what you need to choose to pass the ID of the entity. You have to add a parameter of the type CRM Parameter. Then in the picklist, you need to select FirstPrimaryItemId

Good luck

Hi Tin,

I would suggest you to use javascript to pass parameters. As I know you can pass recordId but not name. Here is what I use to pass parameters;

function RibbonClick() { var parameters = {}; parameters["targetfieldname1"] = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId().toString().replace("{", "").replace("}", ""); parameters["targetfieldname2"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").getValue(); Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("entitylogicalname", null, parameters); }

Hope it helps,
Regards
