fieldType = Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fieldDestination[index]).getAttributeType();
                        switch (fieldType) 
                        {
                            case "lookup":
                                do something
                                break;
                            case "string":
                                do something
                                break;
                            case "optionset":
                                do something
                                break;
                            case "": // what should be here for date type? how to get the date AttributeType to know how to get here in this case?
                                do something
                                break;
                            default:
                                console.log(fieldType   "Unkown");
                                break;
                        }
