Posted on by Kiran_girase 75

Hello experts,

I am doing hide '+ Add new' and 'Add existing' button from subgrid by security role of a user. I am getting the current user of security roles and added a condition 'if the security role is not equal to the current user security role then the subgrid button will hide. Below is my code for hiding button,

function hideAddButtonSubgrid(subgridId) {
	 try {
		 
        addEventToGridRefresh(subgridId, setAddButtonDisplayNone);
    }
    catch (e) {
 
    }
}
 
function setAddButtonDisplayNone(subgridId) {
	debugger;
     var imageId = subgridId + "_" + "addImageButton";
     if (imageId) {
        window.parent.document.getElementById(imageId).style.display = 'none';
    }
    //var imageId2 = subgridId + "_" + "addImageButtonImage";
    //document.getElementById(imageId2).style.display = 'none';
}
 
function addEventToGridRefresh(subgridId, functionToCall) {
	debugger;
	
    // retrieve the subgrid
      var grid =  window.parent.document.getElementById(subgridId);
    // // if the subgrid still not available we try again after 1 second
   
    if(grid == null){
        setTimeout(function () {addEventToGridRefresh(subgridId, functionToCall); }, 1000);
    }
 
    // add the function to the onRefresh event
     grid.control.add_onRefresh(functionToCall);
 
     var imageId = subgridId + "_" + "addImageButton";
     if (imageId) {
        if (document.getElementById(imageId).style.display.toLowerCase() == "block") {
            setAddButtonDisplayNone(subgridId);
       }
    }
    
}


When I debug this code I am getting null value at 'grid'. How can resolve this problem? Is that any issue in new UCI of dynamics 365?

    Hello,

    As Aric suggested, I recommend to go with the Ribbon Workbench tool and apply a display rule in order to show/hide the sub-grid button based on the user permission.

    Thanks for the suggestion sreevalli,

    I tried your code but I am getting error $ is not defined.

    For solving that issue I am also added below code,

    if (typeof($) === 'undefined') {

            var script = document.createElement('script');
		script.src = 'ajax.googleapis.com/.../jquery.min.js';
		script.async = false; 
		document.head.appendChild(script);
		}


    still I am getting same error

    As Ravi said, that is unsupported customization. Try using Ribbon Workbench to add a function to the AddNew and AddExisting buttons display rules that will call a JS function. The JS function will return true or false to show the buttons.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    This worked for me, give a try.

    var addButton = window.parent.document.getElementById("quotedetailsGrid_addImageButtonImage");

       if (flag)

           $($(addButton).parent().parent()[0]).hide();

       else

           $($(addButton).parent().parent()[0]).show();

    Hi,

    This will be because you are using unsupported method to get the subgrid. The only available methods for subgrid are mentioned in below doc. Please refer and change your code accordingly-

    docs.microsoft.com/.../grids

    Hope this helps.
