I'm sorry but this code breaks the save. If you want to save data immediately after field was updated you should use something like following:

Xrm.Page.data.entity.save();

On change of the field the save method as mentioned by Andrii can be called.

Hi,

Here the eventArgs.PreventDefault() will block the save and not save it.
I'm not i understood your need, do you need to save or prevent the saving ?

If you want to save, you add an OnChange event on the lookup fields and trigger a method which will run :

Xrm.Page.data.save();

if you want to prevent the autosave, then you should go with :

var saveEvent = event.getEventArgs();
if (saveEvent && saveEvent.getSaveMode && saveEvent.getSaveMode() === 70) {
return false; // Don't alert on autosave
}

where event is your "econtext" so it's pretty much the same.
How do you call this function ?
