I use the following condition to check a,b values before save.And I call this function form's onsave Event.

if the field values a == b means i need to save the record.Else I need to show the alert.

if a!= b condition the infinite loop will occur which means the alert message shows continuously .My problem is i need to prevent save record if(a!=b) . I used eventArgs.preventDefault(); but its not working.

Am working in CRM 2016.

function onsavecall()
{
if(a != b)
{
alert("alert a is not equal to b .so please change value B");
}
else
{
Xrm.Page.data.save.then(function(){
Xrm.Page.data.refresh();
});
}
}

Thanks in Advance

Hi Vijay,

You can try this notification to show the message and not alert box.

if (a!=b) {

SetPageNotification("info", "INFO", "InfoNotification");

args.preventDefault();

}

else {

ClearAllNotifications();

}

function SetPageNotification(aMessage, aType, aNotificationName) {

// Set the notification

Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification(

aMessage,

aType,

aNotificationName

);

}

function ClearAllNotifications() {

ClearPageNotification("InfoNotification");

}

I think this is the right way to do it. At least I have used this. Please correct me if I am in wrong direction, CRM expert guys !!!

Thanks

Prashant

Hi vijay,

Try this code:

if(a != b)

{

Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("a and b are not equal",function(){
Xrm.Page.data.entity.addOnSave(function (execContext) {
execContext.getEventArgs().preventDefault();//will prevent CRM form save
});
});

}

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Varsha Deshpande

Hi Vijay12872

It looks like eventArgs.preventDefault() is not working.

Make sure you check the "Pass execution context as first parameter" while adding your function to onSave event handlers.

Thanks

Hi Vijay,

Check the below code :

function onSaveCall(context)

{

var a= Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldname").getValue();

var b= Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldname").getValue();

if(a !=b)

alert( "Unable to save as values are not equal..." );

context.getEventArgs().preventDefault();

}

Then onSave event call this function & check the checkbox"Pass execution context as first parameter".

You can check this link :www.infinite-x.net/.../crm-2011-canceling-the-save-operation

I have described the approach in this blog post.

neilparkhurst.com/.../javascript-prevent-save

First you need to select the option which is "Pass execution contact as first parameter".

Then you will need code something like .....

function onSave(context) {

var saveEvent = context.getEventArgs();

if (<<a>>!=<<b>>) {

alert("Put in a phone number!");

saveEvent.preventDefault();

}

}
