Get Logged in/Current user's Business Unit

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Aidel Ibrahim 50

Hi there,

I am writing a Javascript using XrmToolBox. It is a QuoteLine entity which every user/seller need to fill in the products, etc.

I'm trying to get the current user's business unit because every business unit has their own taxcode and I need to make specific calculations based on this.

So this is my current code:

function QuoteLineOnChange()
{
 var taxcode = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_taxcode_");
 var businessunit = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("owningbusinessunit").getValue()[0].name;


 if (businessunit == "A1")
 {
 if (taxcode.getText() == "SST1")
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_tax").setValue(6);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("priceperunit").fireOnChange();
 }
 else
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_tax").setValue(0);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("priceperunit").fireOnChange();
 }

 }
 else if (businessunit == "A2")
 {
 if (taxcodesg.getText() == "SR")
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_tax").setValue(7);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("priceperunit").fireOnChange();
 }
 else
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_tax").setValue(7);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("priceperunit").fireOnChange();
 }

 }
 else
 { 
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("srkk_gstsst").setValue(0);
 }
}

So as you can see, Business Unit A1 and A2 has their own value. But the seem cannot get the business unit that I refer to. Is there a problem on the RED code that I wrote? I need some help

    Hi,

    Approach should be

    1. First get logged in user ID

    docs.microsoft.com/.../usersettings

    2. Use web api to fetch BU by passing the user ID

    var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("GET", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl()   "/api/data/v9.1/systemusers(26adf271-1a02-eb11-a812-000d3af01a07)?$select=_businessunitid_value", false);
req.setRequestHeader("OData-MaxVersion", "4.0");
req.setRequestHeader("OData-Version", "4.0");
req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
req.setRequestHeader("Prefer", "odata.include-annotations=\"*\"");
req.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if (this.readyState === 4) {
        req.onreadystatechange = null;
        if (this.status === 200) {
            var result = JSON.parse(this.response);
            var _businessunitid_value = result["_businessunitid_value"];
            var _businessunitid_value_formatted = result["_businessunitid_value@OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue"];
            var _businessunitid_value_lookuplogicalname = result["_businessunitid_value@Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.lookuplogicalname"];
        } else {
            Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(this.statusText);
        }
    }
};
req.send();

    Replace User ID with result from first step.

    You code will not work because owningbusinessunit field is not present on form and it is not possible to put that field on form also.
