Business process flow unified interface - pin stage (in fly-out)

Hi all,

I hope someone can assist me with this.

This client uses the unified interface, which has a somewhat different presentation of the business process flow.

Basically the client requirement is as follows:

"When there is an active business process flow on a record I want to have the stage pinned automatically to the right side of the screen"

As a graphical example:

What they mean with it that automatically above red marked area pops out when they open a record. I cannot find any OOTB way to do this.

Anyone got any clue as to how to do this? Is there a setting secretly hidden somewhere? And if not, anyone can think of a JS way to achieve this?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Regards,

Joseph

Hi Joseph,

It is not possible in dynamics crm.

you can think of developing a custom HTML web resource - what you have to do is whenever this record opens you can this web resource - align it to the right.

fetch these values such as active stage name and field on it but again its going to be to much work.

Ok, might have been a bit too early with posting this. The good old JS setDisplayState function works flawlessly on the new UUI.

For future reference, have a function like this (added with some of your own business logic):

function dockBPF() {

Xrm.Page.ui.process.setDisplayState("expanded");

}

Thanks for the reply, but (although undocumented) the setDisplayState("expanded") JS function works as well for the UUI.

This can be done by JS.

Here a code

// Auto expand and pin the Flyout tab

Xrm.Page.ui.process.setDisplayState("expanded");
