Simple Jscript not working

I am having trouble getting a calculation function to work. I have 3 fields all of which are floating point numbers with a precision of '2'. Two fields have a range of 0.00 to 1,000,000.00 and another has 0.00 to 1.00 (percentage). The goal is to take 'newprojectcomplete' multply it by 'newcontracthours' and populate the result value to 'targethours'. Keep getting the same error no matter how I write the code. "Error: The value of the property 'Calc_target' is null or undefined, not a function object"

 

Any help?

 

Here is the function I wrote:

function Calc_target() {

Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_targethours).setValue() = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newprojectcomplete").getValue() * Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newcontracthours").getValue();

}

Thanks

    A couple of things:

    There was a typo - missing a " after test_targethours.

    Then, when setting a field value, the value goes inside the () of setValue.

    So it should look something like this:

    function Calc_target() {
    var val = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newprojectcomplete").getValue() * Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newcontracthours").getValue();
    Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_targethours").setValue(val);
}

    Thanks Jason,

    Still getting the same error. This is based on an OnChange event for the 'projectcomplete' would that make a difference?

    function Calc_target1() {

       var val = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newprojectcomplete").getValue() * Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_newcontracthours").getValue();

       Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("test_targethours").setValue(val);

    }

    Did you publish the web resource after updating ? I also noticed you added a 1 to the method name, did you update in the form event and publish?

    Yea, I did it a few times to make sure. The '1' was just added for versioning. I'm not sure what is going on. I checked all my field names to verify, published changes, added both the form library and the event handler.

    I got it to work. I deleted out some of the other functions I had in there and it worked. I guess it didn't like having multiple functions in the file..weird.

    2 sharing the same name would be cause for an issue if that was the case.
