Hi Sid Desh,
You could create a on change event on your Two Options field with the following code(My regarding type is account):
function addTaskOnChange(executionContext){ var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var optionValue = formContext.getAttribute("new_addtask").getValue(); var accountId = formContext.data.entity.getId().replace("{","").replace("}",""); if(optionValue){ var data = {}; data.subject = "My New Task"; data["regardingobjectid_account@odata.bind"] = "/accounts(" accountId ")"; Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("task", data).then( function success(result){ // refresh timeline formContext.getControl("Timeline").refresh(); // do something }, function fail(error){ console.log(error.message); } ); } }
Result:
Hi,
You can achieve same using JavaScript and in JavaScript add condition to check the two option set field value if it is yes then run below code.
// define the data var data = { "subject": "Sample task", "description": "Some sample data", "regardingobjectid_opportunity@odata.bind":"/opportunities(GUID)" } // create account record Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("task", data).then( function success(result) { console.log("Task created with ID: " result.id); // perform operations on record creation }, function (error) { console.log(error.message); // handle error conditions } );
When we set the regarding object id value then task will automatically appear in Timeline for respective entity as shown below:
You can achieve same by using Workflow:
In workflow tick the Field Change and Record Created property and add Check condition if two option set field value is yes then create task as shown below:
same functionality you can achieve through plugin as well as Power Automate.
Thanks,
Pradeep.
