RE: Creating three TextBox for single field.

Hi Abhijit,

The solution you sketched seems to be fine, however I think you should pay some more attention to the user interface.

For me as a user I get scared when I see this amount of text boxes. For starters I would align the boxes vertically with the correct amount of white space between the boxes.

I hope this helps you a bit

RE: Creating three TextBox for single field.

Hello Abhijit,

You cannot (in a supported way) split one field into three in MSCRM. You do, however, have a couple of options to produce a similar effect. One of them is to use three separate fields whereas only one of them have a label. This gives you the visual effect of the three fields being linked together.

So, three fields where the ST Percent field has the label "Service Tax" and the following 2 fields have "Show label on form" set to false. The issue with this in your case is the fact that none of the fields have labels to show what values they should contain.

Your other option is to create a section with 3 columns on the form with the label "Service Tax", containing 3 fields stacked horizontally. If you want the field label to be above the text box, you may use the Column label instead of the field label to produce the following result:

In order to autosum the two leftmost fields, you can do that using JavaScript. Edit and set the following function to fire onChange on both of the two leftmost fields:

function autoSum() {

var stPercent = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("ST_Percent_field_name").getValueI();

var stApplicable = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("ST_Applicable_field_name").getValueI();

var totalST = stApplicable * stPercent / 100;

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("TOTAL_ST_field_name").setValue(totalST);

}

Regards,

Rasmus

Abhijit,

My Suggestion, you keep the current Tax field

Then you create another 3 fields..

After that, you use javascript or plugin.

I think you cannot use Business Rule because Quote Product is still using the old-fashioned form.

But, you can try to add using calculate field.

Thanks.
