You can simply do this by making field required without JS .

Or you can create business rules to make field required.

Try with this if you still want to do using JS. Don't forget to pass execution context in the form onsave event.

function ValidateNamefield(executionContext) {

var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("sbl_branch_name").getValue();

if (name == null && name == "") {

alert("Name filed should notbe blank");

executionContext.getEventArgs().preventDefault();

}

}

Hi,

besides making the field required, you also can use setNotification() . So that user cannot save it without resolve the error.

Last, you can easily achieve it using Business rule if your condition is that simple.

if(name==null)

{

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_myfield").setRequiredLevel("required");

{

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("sbl_branch_name").setValue(name);
