Hello, 

I have a entity which has 2 forms. 

Is there a way to fire an event when user changes the form. Like displaying alert etc..

I want to set some field value when user changes the form manually. 

Regards

Prasad.

    Hi,

    When user manually change form, then Form is loaded again, so you can add logic in form load event, and based on current form you can set values to fields.

    You need to add onload event on both forms.

    you can get current form name/ id using

    var formname =  Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem.getLabel();

    var formId =  Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem.getId();

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg327828.aspx

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg309560.aspx

    Another option is even you have 2 forms you can enable security on forms, and based on user role you can show form to user.

    Hope this will help..

    The form Onload is the only event that can help you on this. If the user changes the form then onload event will fire, The first step you have to do in the onload is, check what is the form name using the formSelector, based on that you can take further required action like setting a field value, showing an alert or even forcing user to shift to another form.. Hope this helps....
