Hi All
In the Opportunity form I want to auto populate account field when user select a contact. I have tried with JavaScript approach with below steps.
01.Get contact ID
02.Get AccountID for Contact ID
03.Get Account name
I feel there should be an easy way do this. Could you please help me?
Hello,
The general logic for the script is following:
1. Get the contact id from the form.
2. Use Xrm.WebApi to get the information from the "contact" record.
3. Populate the "company" lookup based on the data from the previous step.
The most challenging part is step 2 and the following post gives you almost the fully functional script for that - www.inogic.com/.../
Hi Saman,
you can create a workflow to achieve it, which is a no code way and easier than js.
You can refer following steps.
1.Go Settings > Process to create a Real Time workflow on opportunity entity
2.Trigger it on Create and contact field change.
If you want to fill account from contact automatically for existing opportunities, you can check 'As an on-demand process'
3.Update the value of account from contact.
4.Save and Active it.
5.Test.
Fill contact field and save it, the account field will be filled automatically.
