This is the code i used to hide "Finish" button of Business Process Flow, please substitute the id with the id of the button you want to hide:

var hide = true; var interval = null; function OnLoad(){ interval = setInterval(function () { var element = parent.document.getElementById("stageFinishActionContainer"); if (element != null && hide == true) { hide = false; element.style.display = "none"; clearInterval(interval); } }, 1000); }

If you found the answer helpful, please mark as Verified

Thank you & Best Regards

Hi Francesco,

I'm trying to do exactly the same thing (hide the finish button) on a BPF! I'm quite new to using code in Dynamics so excuse my ignorance, but what do you do with this code/where do you put it?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I also had this requirement, this blog post helped me a lot, it uses the Xrm library, so it should be future compatible.

Here is the code I used:

function hidePreviousStageButton(executionContext) { var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var process = formContext.data.process; //handles changes to the BPF before they actually occur process.addOnPreStageChange(myProcessStateOnPreChange); } function myProcessStateOnPreChange(executionContext) { var formContext= executionContext.getFormContext(); var process = formContext.data.process; var eventArgs = executionContext.getEventArgs(); var currentStageId = process.getActiveStage().getId(); var nextStageId = process.getSelectedStage().getId(); //dont allow to go back using the set active button if (currentStageId != nextStageId) { eventArgs.preventDefault(); Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("You cannot use the Set Active button.") return; } if (eventArgs._direction === 1) //backwards { //here you can add logic based upon the BPF going to the previous Stage. return; } //otherwise forward // here you can add logic based upon the BPF going to the next Stage. }

Hope it helps!
