Hi,

I would like to hide/show ribbon buttons based on a lookup field in my form.

My condition is If the lookup has a value of "Checked In" than button should not display otherwise it should display.

Thanks

Hi Thank you for your reply.

I have tried setting enable rule, but either the doesn't show at all or it shows all the time.

I have added valueRule in Enable Rules please refer screenshot

taqi_checkoutstatus is the lookup name, it has two values Checked In & Checked Out

I have also assigned this Enable Rule to Command and Command to Button.

Please Help.

Hi,

I would recommend to go for JS rule , where get the lookup text and return true/false. Here is the code -

function RibbonShowHideButton() { var returnResult = false; var statusObj = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("taqi_checkoutstatus").getValue(); var statusVal = null; if (statusObj != null) { statusVal = statusObj[0].name; if (statusVal.toLowerCase() == "checked in") { returResult = true; } } return returnResult; }

I did a test using Value Rule with lookup field value set to GUID and also name but its not working . So use CustomRule and try with above shared code.
