I am attemtping to switch Business Process Flows using a drop down selection field 
 
Code: (updated)
 
 

 

code updated: error still there
 
 
var SwitchBPF = {
    checkSwitchBPFbyType: function (executionContext) {

        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        if (formContext.data.entity.getEntityName() === "opportunity") {
            if (formContext.data.process.getActiveProcess() !== null) {
                // Check Type & BPF match as required
                var currentBpfID = formContext.data.process.getActiveProcess().getId();
                if (formContext.getAttribute("new_formtype")) {
                    var leadType = formContext.getAttribute("new_formtype").getValue();
                    if (leadType === 100000000 && currentBpfID !== "b919E14D1-6489-4852-ABD0-A63A6ECAAC5D") {

    Web resource method does not exist - Switching BPF
    In the EventHandler in your screenshot, you have specified "SwitchBPF" as the method, but this is not the method but the name of your overlying object in which the method is nested.
    To reference your method "checkSwitchBPFbyType" as an EventHandler, you must enter "SwitchBPF.checkSwitchBPFbyType" as the EventHandler.
    This means that the "checkSwitchBPFbyType" method from your "SwitchBPF" object should be used as the EventHandler.

    I'm not a JS Expert. But it looks like the function name you have given in the Event handler is SwitchBPF while SwitchBPF in your code is a variable and not a function. Also the function checkSwitchBPFbyType is inside the SwitchBPF object.
    Could you please try formatting the code like the following by removing the SwitchBPF variable and giving the function name in the event handler as checkSwitchBPFbyType and see if it works -
     
    function checkSwitchBPFbyType(executionContext){
    // Add the logic
    }
