I have a script that is popping a message on load. If the field i'm checking has a value it works as it should but if the field is null i get an error. What can i add to the script to fix that error? 

function checkAccountingStatus() {
 var accountingstatus = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('accountratingcode').getSelectedOption();
  if (accountingstatus.value == 282740001) {
   Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("The Account is in Collections.");
 }
}

    Update code as below:

    function checkAccountingStatus() {

    var accountingstatus = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('accountratingcode');

    if(accountingstatus!=null)

    {

    var accountingstatusValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('accountratingcode').getSelectedOption();

     if (accountingstatus.Valuevalue == 282740001) {

      Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("The Account is in Collections.");

    }

    }

    }

    Still getting an error when accounting status is null. Here is the error and the updated code. 

    TypeError: Cannot read property 'value' of null at checkAccountingStatus (devarinet.crm.dynamics.com/.../ari_CollectionsPopup)

    function checkAccountingStatus() {
   var accountingstatus = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('accountratingcode');
   if (accountingstatus != null) {
   		var accountingstatusValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('accountratingcode').getSelectedOption();
   		if (accountingstatusValue.value == 282740001) {
      		Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("The Account is in Collections.");
		}
	}
}

    Use getValue() in place of get selected option.
