Hello,

I created a button using Ribbon Workbench, I have a Submit and Reject button. When a user use "Submit" button, I would like to check if all the fields have value, the fields in the form are business recommended however when it's ready to be submitted I want all the fields to have value.

Thanks!

Hello,

I believe this can be done using JavaScript. Something like following:

var allfieldspopulated = true;

var fields = ["field1", "field2", "field3"];

for(var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++){

if (Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fields[i]).getValue() == null){

allfieldspopulated = false;

break;

}

}

if (!allfieldspopulated){

//put your logic if fields are not populated here.

}

Hi Andrii,

The above code works, however I added alert in if(!allfieldsPopulated) as follow..even if field 1 has a value It still show the alert on field 1. Also how can I pass the name of the field in the alert message? Thanks

var allfieldspopulated = true;

var fields = ["field1", "field2", "field3"];

for(var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++){

if (Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fields[i]).getValue() == null){

allfieldspopulated = false;

break;

}

}

if (!allfieldspopulated){

alert("Error: " + "field1");

alert("Error: " + "field2");

}

In your initial message you wrote to validate all fields. So if one field has have and second doesn't - message will come up anyway.

The name of field you can get using following code:

Xrm.Page.getControl("fieldname").getLabel()

Ok. In that case you can use something like following:

var fields = ["field1", "field2", "field3"];

var message = "";

for(var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++){

if (Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fields[i]).getValue() == null){

message += (message === "" ? "" : "\r\n") + "Field " + Xrm.Page.getControl(fields[i]).getLabel() + " doesn't contain value";

}

}

if (message != ""){

alert(message);

}

Thanks. I am trying to make the fields that doesn't have a value to be required. I added this line of code

Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fields[i]).setRequiredLevel("required");

However it only require the first field that doesn't have the value not all the fields that doesn't have a value.

Why don't you want to make a field required in attribute options? Just make it required and you will not need any coding.

Hello,

you can use javascript validation

my example finds first field if field is recommended, visible and not disabled

and parent section and parent tab are visible

var i = 0, j = 0,

allFields = Xrm.Page.getAttribute(),

fieldControls,

isValid = true;

do {

if (allFields[i].getRequiredLevel() == "recommended" && allFields[i].getUserPrivilege().canUpdate && allFields[i].getValue() == null){

fieldControls = allFields[i].controls.get();

do {

if (fieldControls[j].getVisible() && !fieldControls[j].getDisabled() && fieldControls[j].getParent().getVisible() && fieldControls[j].getParent().getParent().getVisible()){

isValid = false;

//----your code----//

fieldControls[j].setFocus(); //msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg334266.aspx;MSPPError=-2147217396#BKMK_setFocus

}

j++;

} while (isValid && j < fieldControls.length)

}

i++;

} while (isValid && i < allFields.length)

Hi Andrii,

I didn't want the fields to be required by default that's why.

Thanks
