Hi,

you can use javascript to do the calculation between days.

[View:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10453810/find-the-number-of-business-days-between-two-dates-in-microsoft-dynamics-crm-201]

if the final result is not 3 days.

use setnotification to show message.

You'll need to use a javascript function to do this. This can run on change of the date field, and can throw an error, and clear out the value, if the user selects a date that is in the past.

It is just about possible to do this without code, as a business rule allows you to compare the difference between 2 date fields, and you could probably use a workflow or calculated field to store the current date, but this is quite messy, and in this case I think javascript is simpler

hi,

you could use current date and compare with the follow up date.

var currentdate=new Date(); //which will return current date and time object

RE: Disable or doesn't allow to select past date

Dynamics 365 calendar control cannot be configured or modified in a supported way to do what you mentioned above.

You could have a hidden field on the form to keep the current date and set its value using a tiny js function on load of the form as shown below

function SetCurrentDate()

{

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_todaydate").setValue(Date.now());

}

And you can then have a business rule on the selected date field, and if the selected value is less than the today's date field value, you can use the Set Error on the field. This will prevent the record from being saved and also the red error message on the field will force the user to select valid date.

Hope this helps

Manoj ,

Try with this -

// Register below method in onchange event function ValidatePastDate() { var dateFieldVal = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_dateField").getValue(); // Replace Field Name var dateFieldValDT = new Date(dateFieldVal); var dateFieldValWithFormat = dateFieldValDT.getFullYear() + '/' + (dateFieldValDT.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + dateFieldValDT.getDate(); var todaydate = new Date(); var todaywithFormat = todaydate.getFullYear() + '/' + (todaydate.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + todaydate.getDate(); if (dateFieldValWithFormat < todaywithFormat) { alert("Selected date less than today"); rm.Page.getAttribute("new_dateField").setValue(null); } else { alert("Selected event date greater than today"); } }

Hi Manoj,

You can only write a Javascript function and there you can get the current date + 3 days. Once you have this value, then you need to check what is updated value. If he selects which supposed to restrict, then you can clear the value and Show error message. This is the best option to achieve your requirement.Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Shivaram.
