Hi,

I found the following piece of code, and I'm trying to find out what the int 1 and 2 (passed as parameters of OptionSetValue() ) stand for

var newRequest = new SetStateRequest();
var newEntityMoniker = newRequest.EntityMoniker();

newEntityMoniker = new EntiyReference()
{ 
   Id = myEntity.Id;
   LogicalName = myEntity.LogicalName;
}

newEntityMoniker.State = new OptionSetValue(1);
newEntityMoniker.Status = new OptionSetValue(2);

In this documentation, which explains the SetStateRequest class, I found an example of use of OptionSetValue but it doesn't use an int value as a parameter.

What does the instructions above mean, and where can I find some references about this usage of OptionSetValue()?

I have the same question (0)

Hi Joel,

A choice of an optionSet field is defined by a label + a value.

For example, a "Won" opportunity is defined as: statecode field value of the opportunity is 1.

Updating an optionset field means updating its value (a numeric) not its label.

Hi Mehdi,

Where can I find the labels for the Opportunity statecode field values?

I opened the Status field properties for the Opportunity entity, but I onlu see these four labels: Auto, Inactive, active, disabled

Hi,

The case of status remains an exceptional case. The labels/values can be found via the stringMap table. Indeed, this table contains the label/value choices. You will find on this link all default values of status/status reason: https://www.tpein.dk/?page_id=210

For an ordinary option set field, you will be able to see the values of the options set, and you can also modify them:
