Posted on by Community Member

i have a Date/Time field in a contract , it is set to accept only date.

i opened Form Editor wanted to set a validation so that this field will accept any date >= today's date

means the user cant select any previous date, but i cant see where to set this validation

    Hi,

    In business rule unfortunately there is no logic for today's date. That's why you need to create customization in javascript to only let user key in value more than today.

    Hi Shaka,

    You can check the value of the currently selected field and then clear it if it is greater than today's date.

    Check out Guido Preite's post on the same (includes JS code) :

    Hi Shaka,

    Change Properties->Events (Tab) then add a new onchange event.

    Hi Shaka ,

    Try with this  -Make sure you attached the javascript function in change of the date field .  Go to form editor double click on the date fields in the event area select onchange and put the function name .

                 function SetNullIfDateLessThanEqualToday() {
                 var dateTimeValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_datetime").getValue()  // Replace the date filed Name
                 var crmDateValue = new Date(dateTimeValue);
                 var eventdateTimeValue = crmDateValue.getFullYear() + '/' + (crmDateValue.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + crmDateValue.getDate(); 
                 var todaydate = new Date();
                 var today = todaydate.getFullYear() + '/' + (todaydate.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + todaydate.getDate(); 
                 if (eventdateTimeValue <= today) { 
                     alert("event date less than equal today");
                     Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_datetime").setValue(null); // Replace the date filed Name
                 }                 
             }
