I need to create an alert asking the user if they really want to uncheck a checkbox on a form. (The default value of the checkbox is No) I am new to using JavaScript in CRM - would anyone point me to examples of how this would work, or tutorials on using JavaScript in CRM? We are using Dynamics 365 online.

Many thanks!

RE: Create an alert when a checkbox is unchecked

Hi Barbara,

You can use the following Alert functions in your OnLoad JavaScript file:

Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification("Enter your Information Alert here.", "INFORMATION")
Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification("Enter your warning alert here. ", "WARNING")
Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification("Enter your error alert here. ", "ERROR")

You can also use the alertDialog function in JavaScript. Here is its definition

Displays a dialog box containing an application-defined message.

Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(message,onCloseCallback)

More details here:

For a guide on how to write Dynamics 365 CRM JavaScript, you can look here:
