Posted on by Pete_N 1,695

please be gentle .. I'm learning

I have two sections in a tab (SUMMARY_TAB)

Section 'Section_ATAGLANCE' has a two option field new_ddmandate

Section 'Section_DirectDebit' has three fields.

what I want to do is on form load hide the Section_DirectDebit IF the value of new_ddmandate is false

I have had a look at some JS but to be fair im a bit confused. I've tried using 

function showhidedirectdebit()
{
var paybydd = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_ddmandate").getValue();
if(paybydd == 1)
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(true);
else
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(false);
}

 but just get an error. Can anyone see where I have gone wrong in the first instance before I start posting up error code

    I used the code Rawish posted

    function showhidedirectdebit()

    {

      var paybydd = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ddmandate").getValue();  

      if (paybydd == 1)

          Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(true);

      else

          Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(false);

    }

    Hi,

    Can you please re-share your complete code, it seems there is some syntax error in your code.

    3. try to debug the script blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../debugging-custom-javascript-code-in-crm-using-browser-developer-tools

    Scrub my previous answer, I made a mistake in calling the function …  your code works perfectly

    Hi There,

    Please dont worry. Everyone is learning here from each other.

    I copied your script and made a few modifications and it worked for me. :

    function showhidedirectdebit()

    {

       var paybydd = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_ddmandate").getValue();  

       if (paybydd == 1)

           Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(true);

       else

           Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("SUMMARY_TAB").sections.get("Section_DirectDebit").setVisible(false);

    }

    would you please try above and let me know what are you get /or were getting?
