    Hi preetham,

    To set lookup field(preetham_refferdid) value, we should create an array object with id, name and entityType properties.

    Please modify your Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords function like below.

    Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords("preetham_doctors", fetchxml).then(
    function success(response) {
        for (var i = 0; i < response.entities.length; i  ) {
            var responseobj = response.entities[i];
            var lookup = new Array();
            lookup[0] = new Object();
            lookup[0].id = responseobj.preetham_doctorsid;
            lookup[0].name = responseobj.preetham_name;
            lookup[0].entityType = 'preetham_doctors';
            formcontext.getAttribute("preetham_refferedid").setValue(lookup);
        }
    },
    function (error) {
        Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("failed");
    }
)

    Alternatively, it also works if we shorten them in single line.(Not declaring array and object.)

    formcontext.getAttribute("preetham_refferedid").setValue([{id: responseobj.preetham_doctorsid, name: responseobj.preetham_name, entityType:'preetham_doctors'}]);

    Regards,

    Clofly

    Addfilter is not triggering is ther any otherway to do it .

    i have tried using webapi

    function Alertmethod(executionContext)

    {

       var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); // get formContext

          debugger;

    var department_id=formContext.getAttribute("preetham_departmentid").getValue()[0].id

    var fetchxml="<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='false'>"+

        "  <entity name='preetham_doctors'>"+

        "    <attribute name='preetham_doctorsid' />"+

        "    <attribute name='preetham_name' />"+

        "    <attribute name='createdon' />"+

        "    <order attribute='preetham_name' descending='false' />"+

        "    <filter type='and'>"+

        "      <condition attribute='preetham_departmentsid' operator='eq' value='"+department_id+"' />"+

        "    </filter>"+

        "  </entity>"+

        "</fetch>"

        fetchxml="?fetchXml="+encodeURIComponent(fetchxml);

        Xrm.WebApi. retrieveMultipleRecords("preetham_doctors",fetchxml).then(

            function success(response)

            {

                for(var i=0; i<=response.entities.length; i++)

                {

                    var responseobj=response.entities[i];

                    formcontext.getAttribute("preetham_refferedid").setValue(responseobj.preetham_doctorsid)

                }

            },

            function(error)

            {

               Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("failed");

            }

        )

    }

    I am getting the data in response but i am not able to set to "preetham_refferdid"

    Any idea is i am doing correct or any suggestion

    You can insert debugger at line 1 of addFilter function, to check whether the addFilter is actually triggered by addPreSearch.

    Hi Clofy Mao

    Thats not the problem

    formContext.getControl("preetham_refferedid").addPreSearch(addFilter);

    in this addPreSearch should call addfilter function but its not calling addfilter its terminating .

    community.dynamics.com/.../845868

    I found this i am also using version 9.0

    Hi preetham,

    Maybe it caused by this line

    department=department[0].id

    It will get the record id and curly bracket, please remove the extra bracket using regex and test again.

    department[0].id.replace(/\{|\}/gi, "").toLowerCase();

    Regards,

    Clofly
