RE: set default during value in task

Did you add getFormType condition?

function defaultDuration()

{

if(Xrm.Page.ui.getFormType() == 1) Xrm.Page.getAttribute("actualdurationminutes").setValue(1440);

}

Thanks Alex,

this will work for every new task, but it still sets the existing task values, when opening the existing task.

This works in the onload:

function defaultDuration()

{

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("actualdurationminutes").setValue(1440);

}

Though you may want to add form type check (so it only works on create):

if(Xrm.Page.ui.getFormType() == 1)

Yes, I can see the problem - it does not work for me either.. maybe a javascript, but I'll need to try.. (it seems to be one of those special controls in Dynamics.. you can actually type in, say, 600.. and you'll get 10 hours.. even though 10 hours is not in the dropdown.. but it's definitely not working with the business rule for some reason)

Hi,

I guess you might try using a business rule, a javascript, or a workflow. Depending on where you need this to work and how complicated the rules are..
