Posted on by Mike Mondala 250

Hello,

 I have created a new entity with the First Name and Last Name Fields with Full Name Field as the Primary.  Can somebody please tell me how to combine the First Name and Last Name Fields to the Full Name Field (Similar to the default Contact Entity)?  Thank you.

    Hi,

    Put the following code in the new entity form onSave event or in the first name & last name field onChange event: (replace field names)

    crmForm.all.[fullname field schema name].DataValue = crmForm.all.[firstname field schema name].DataValue + " " + crmForm.all.[lastname field schema name].DataValue;

    Hope this help,

    Hi,

    Scripts only fire from the form and when you manually save them.

    In case you already had entries or there were other ways of inserting data into this entity like some kind of external integration, you may want to create a workflow instead that will update the full name with the first name and last name.
