getSaveMode on Mark complete of activity CRM 365 (v9.0)

Posted on by Clem 2,541

Hello,

I've a requirement to display a popup before the activity is saved and complete to ask the user if he is sure.
So i started to implement my function on my OnSave event.
I read here : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg509060.aspx#BKMK_GetSaveMode that the SaveMode 58 is dedicated to the activity so i know that the user clicked on the button.
On CRM 2016 (v8.1), this works like a charm.
On Dynamics 365 (V9), the getSaveMode always return 1.
Anyone knows if it's a bug or the way to know that the save come from this button in the ribbon is different ?

Thanks a lot,

Clément

    Hi,

    Clement

    I'm trying to achieve something similar , I'm trying to create a custom button like Mark complete when users click the custom button it needs to pop-up  with are you sure you want to close the call?? ok and cancel button

    I didn't find any javascript code to achieve this, did you find an answer to your mark complete button.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    Hi Clement,

    There are still many known and unknown bugs in V9, so it is very possible that this is one of them.

    If you do not reach a resolution I would suggest logging this on ideas.dynamics.com, a post a link here so that people can vote up on it if experiencing the same thing.

    Good luck.

    Did you get this working?  I think there is an issue in version 9 of CRM.  My IFrame JavaScript that I have run on the OnReadyStateComplete event of an IFrame doesn't run.  I ended up having to hard code the url rather then pull it from the getSrc() method and append the id to the end of it.  Not the way I wanted to do it, but the only way I could get it to run consistantly.  I then placed it on the OnLoad function.  I know this is different from your issue, but I think it is odd that we both have issues with JavaScript in v9 not running as expected.  So I am going to say there is a bug in v9.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../addonsave

    This way, i can attached as many functions i want to the OnSave event without going to the form properties. As says the page above, the executioncontext is automatically passed to the function via the variable "event" for me.

    I don't want to override the default behavior of the Mark complete button from the ribbon so i want to avoid using a custom call of the "[...]data.entity.save()[...]"

    Exact same configuration works on 8.1/8.2.

    I think it might be the "addOnSave"

    docs.microsoft.com/.../save

    Line 12 you are getting the form context instead of the Event Args. try changing that to context.getEventArgs(); and see if you have any different results.  Also I have seen with v9 there being caching, so you may need to clear your cache or try a different browser when troubleshooting JS and making changes.  It appears the way forms are rendered has changed greatly in v9.  I just went through this headache with IFrame's and using JavaScript for dynamically creating the URL.

    Disreagrad.  I see the EventArgs on line 19.

    I mentionned the mode 58 which is linked to the save & complete of the activities.

    Here is my code (simple) : 

    2018_2D00_01_2D00_02_5F00_17_2D00_45_2D00_48_5F00_chrome.png

    the debug is triggered when i click on the button : "Mark complete" from the ribbon.

    Check the example at the bottom of that link.  There are syntax changes that where made.  Also you mentioned 70 which is assigned too Auto Save.  If the user is saving it, this isn't an "Auto Save" but a save(1).  That is why you are seeing 1 returned.  Can you provide the code?
