Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I am trying to add the custom view to the lookup field and setting that custom view as the default view as below:

 Xrm.Page.getControl(fieldName).addCustomView(viewId, 'product', viewDisplayName, fetchXml, layoutXml, true);

Please find the image below:

    Hi RajKumar,

    I tried in chrome and IE11. I gone through the link. but the issue is that lookupfield textbox area gets shrinks after the record is selected.

    Surya,

    Try this, setting the IsDefaultView to false in addCustomView() method

    Refer the following link:

    Hope this helps.

    Use this,

    var viewId = Xrm.Page.getControl("new_productid").getDefaultView();

    instead of

    var viewId = "{00000000-0000-0000-00AA-000010001111}";

    Also change to var fetchXml = "<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='false'>"
