Hello all,
I am trying to create a script that will run onLoad of one of my forms. Among the many things that this script will do, it needs to check a field on one of the lockups on the form.
How do i check the field value of the related record?
Thank you in advance!!

Hey,
To read the details of related entity from the lookup value follow the below steps
1. On entity B form "OnLoad" script read the lookup value.
var entitiyALookup = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getAttributes.('LookUpSchemaName').getValue()
if(entitiyALookup != null && entitiyALookup.length[0]){
var entityARecordId = entitiyALookup[0].id
var entityARecordType = entitiyALookup[0].entityType
}
2. Now make a web API call to get the field value (in your case the optionset field value ) from entity A record.
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord(entityARecordType, entityARecordId).then(function(result){
console.log(result);
//Here you can read the field data from entity A. i.e., the optionset field value
}, function(error){ console.log(error); alert(error)});
Note: Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord method is only for dynamics 365 v9.0. If you are running any old version of CRM then make use of AJAX to consume the webapi.

Thank you for you reply.
Does this pull up the field on the related lookup or just the lookup value?
I have entity A and B. Entity A is a parent of B. Im writing a script that runs onload of entity B and it will check the value of a given option set on the parent entity, A.
You can get information about a lookup field the following way. Lookup field consists of 3 properties together.
var luf = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get('FIELD SCHEMA NAME HERE').getValue()
if(luf != null){
id= luf[0].id;
type= luf[0].entityType;
name = luf[0].name;
}
Hope this will help!
