CRM 2016 - What determines the default location of the cursor?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

Non I.T. person asking, so be nice. :-)

I have user rights elevated to System Admin for an upgrade to our CRM 2011 to 2016 enviromnent. Our I.T. outsource group is unresponsive so I am asking for help here....

I have a screen where the default cursor is on a field that ends up getting blown out by many users who access this screen many times a day to update the data. My user group wants me to change the default location of the cursor. How do you accomplish this? Does it take code (setFocus?)? 

I have enough knowledge of CRM 2016 to make changes to Entities (Forms/Views/Relationships) and publish them in a Dev site. I then send to our IT group for import into our live site. But I don't see anything in the Customization area that alters the cursor location. Any suggestions/help is much appreciated.

Thanks

    Hi ,

    Try with this-

    function setfocusOnField() {

       window.setTimeout(function () {

           Xrm.Page.getControl("Fieldname").setFocus();

       }, 500);

    }

    Register above method in form onload event and replace field name which you want to set  focus.
