is there a way to .FireOnChange() after Order form [Look up Addresses] dialog?

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I need to have a javascript method fire onChange of sendto_name and/or sendto_stateorprovince and/or sendto_postalcode.

Normally I would add a fireOnChange() to the onChange of the triggering field.  However, I don't know how to append the method to the process behind the [Look up Addresses] button.  And if I just have it on the 3 fields the user has to save before the method fires then save a second time for the method's results.

Aside from ribbon modification, is there any way to solve this?

TIA

    Perhaps the aspect you are missing that I didn't lay out was that the event is a change of address RECORD not a change of customer.  A given account has address1, address2 and N number of ship-to addresses.  When the ship-to address is set {address3 through N}, I need to to respond to the two fields mentioned.

    To review using your example, if it were a change of customer, I can put the method on the one of the fields AND put that-field.FireOnChange() on the customer field.  I can't do that because there is no "onChange event" for the [Look up Addresses] button.

    Regarding your button suggestion: if you mean by API the method associated with the button command, yes.  I could pull that into some javascript, add the FireOnChange then make that javascript the new button command.  I'm trying to avoid that with something that is more "first level" customization than fussing with the ribbon -- if possible.

    It's just academic now since I bit the bullet and solved it with a pre-validation plugin, anyway.

    Hello,

    sorry I didn't understand what you want to do.

    Normally the "Look Up Address" button is opening a modal dialog showing you the addresses of the Potential Customer you selected on the Order.

    So after you select the Potential Customer and select the address related with him using the "Look Up Address", in the Order is auto-populated the section about Addresses.

    If you change the Potential Customer, to change as well the section in the Order, you have to use the "Look Up Address" to retrieve the addresses related with that Potential Customer.

    You cannot edit that modal dialog; what you can do is something custom ( button and web resource ) that is doing an api call to retrieve the address for that specific customer.

    After that you can manage the events on that custom web resource ( html page ) and access on the fields on the order  using parent.Xrm.Page.

    Thanks,

    Regards
