Posted on by Dynamic fresher 5

I am tracking the stages of Business process flow and setting the field values,

convert this to Form context format;

function formonload() { 


Xrm.Page.data.process.addOnStageChange(getStage);  // Trigger the function when move to next stage.


getStage();
}
function getStage() {


var activeStage = Xrm.Page.data.process.getActiveStage();


var stagename = activeStage.getName();


switch (stagename) {


case "Stage1": // Stage of business process flow
Xrm.Page.getAttribute("field_1").setValue(1);
break;


case "Stage2": //Stage of business process flow
Xrm.Page.getAttribute("field_1").setValue(2);
break;
default:

}
}

    Hi,

    Please find the code below,

    function BusinessProcessFlowScript(executionContext) {
    try {
        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        var activeStage = formContext.data.process.getActiveStage();
        if (activeStage !== null && typeof (activeStage) !== "undefined") {
            var stageName = activeStage._stageStep.description;
            switch (stageName) {
                case "Stage1":
                    formContext.getAttribute("field_1").setValue(1);
                    break;
                case "Stage2":
                    formContext.getAttribute("field_2").setValue(2);
                    break;
                default:
            }
        }
    } catch (ex) {
        Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog(ex.message);
    }

    hi,

    i need this process to happen when i move onto next stage of business process flow also.

    your code runs only once since i registered onload of form.

    please guide me on how to call this function when i move to next subsequent stages of business process flow.

    Hi,

    Please use formContext.data.process.addOnStageChange(function name);

    add this in the onload event the above metioned funtion should be added here in the function name.

    If you need more help please let me know i can send you the code.

    Thanks

    function formonload(e) {

    var formContext = e.getFormContext;

    formcontext.data.process.addOnStageChange(BusinessProcessFlowScript);

    }

    function BusinessProcessFlowScript() {

       try {

           var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

           var activeStage = formContext.data.process.getActiveStage();

           if (activeStage !== null && typeof (activeStage) !== "undefined") {

               var stageName = activeStage._stageStep.description;

               switch (stageName) {

                   case "Stage1":

                       formContext.getAttribute("field_1").setValue(1);

                       break;

                   case "Stage2":

                       formContext.getAttribute("field_2").setValue(2);

                       break;

                   default:

               }

           }

       } catch (ex) {

           Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog(ex.message);

       }

    Hi,

    this is working code

    function OnloadOfForm(executionContext) {
    try {
        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        formContext.data.process.addOnStageChange(function () {
            BusinessProcessFlowScript(formContext);
        });
    } catch (ex) {
        Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog(ex.message);
    }
}

function BusinessProcessFlowScript(formContext) {
    try {
        var activeStage = formContext.data.process.getActiveStage();
        if (activeStage !== null && typeof (activeStage) !== "undefined") {
            var stageName = activeStage._stageStep.description;
            switch (stageName) {
                case "Stage1":
                    formContext.getAttribute("field_1").setValue(1);
                    break;
                case "Stage2":
                    formContext.getAttribute("field_2").setValue(2);
                    break;
                default:
            }
        }
    } catch (ex) {
        Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog(ex.message);
    }
}
