Calculated field between two entities

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Rajath Krishna S 62

I have two different entities in CRM and have to find a difference between date present in one entity and date present in another entity.

I tried using calculated column but the field's schema name from another entity is not showing up in formula.

Can anyone help me out how to achieve this?

FYI

Entity 1: Rebate & Approvals, Field - Sales Delivery Committed Date

Entity 2: OFG Data, Field - NWC Invoice Date

Calculated Field: Diff b/w committed and Invoice date

    Hi,

    You can use data from Lookup records within your Action. You first have to select the Lookup field and then type a period. After that, you can select one of the fields available on the related entity. For example, in the case of <LookupFieldName>.<RelatedFieldName>, you can select: ParentAccountId.AccountNumber.

    Note that field level security will be ignored on the related entity, so if there is sensitive data in the accessed field we suggest securing your calculated field as well.

    This will only work when you have relationship defined between two entities.

    I have used jScript to find number of days between two dates. But I am getting error as "Web resource method does not exist". 

    I have tried all the ways to fix. Can anyone help?

    function datediff(){
    var d1=crmForm.all.FirstDate.DataValue;
    var d2=crmForm.all.SecondDate.DataValue;
    var DayValue=1000*60*60*24;
    alert(Math.ceil((d2.getTime()-d1.getTime())/DayValue));
    var d1=Xrm.Page.getAttribute(“new_salesdeliverycommitteddate").getValue();
    var i= Xrm.Page.getAttribute(“new_numberofdocumentsofnwc").getValue();
    var d2=Xrm.Page.getAttribute(“new_nwcinvoicedate”+i).getValue();
    var DayValue=1000*60*60*24;
    var diff = Math.ceil((d2.getTime()-d1.getTime())/DayValue);
    Xrm.Page.getAttribute(“new_diffbwcustomerdelivery_invoicedate").setValue(diff);
    }
