Thank you rgomeZj, this worked for me.I was trying to assign customer type code (1 for contact and 2 for account), assigning entityname as you mentioned fixed the issue.Thanks.
Hi,
I got this solved by setting the type as following
parameters["custom_customer"] = contractorId; parameters["custom_customername"] = contractorName; parameters["custom_customeridtype"] = "account";
notice the type has "id" in between "customer" and "type" words. Got the idea from the documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/dynamicscrm-2016/developers-guide/gg334375(v=crm.8)#BKMK_setValueLookupfields
In that example the URL
/main.aspx?etn=lead&pagetype=entityrecord&extraqs=ownerid%3D%7bB8C6E040-656E-DF11-B414-00155DB1891A%7d%26owneridname%3DMark%20Folkerts%26owneridtype%3Dsystemuser
has the type defined as owneridtype
Regards,
I am having the same issue for opening an opportunity record where I am trying to populate the custom customer field from the previously opened opportunity record.
ALso experiencing that custom_customertype is an Invalid Parameter.
Were you able to solve this?
Hi!
In our case, we have a customer lookup field on Entity called "A" and we would like to open entity from for entity "B"!
We have code like this (same as on this link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/dynamicscrm-2016/developers-guide/gg334375(v=crm.8)#BKMK_setValueLookupfields):
var new_contractor = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_contractor");
All responses (
Answers (
if (new_contractor){
parameters["custom_customer"] = contractorId;
parameters["custom_customername"] = contractorName;
parameters["custom_customertype"] = "account";
}
Customer lookup field called "custom_customer" on entity "B" so we have to pass this parameter, name and type.
The result when we run this code is an error. It's say:
Unhandled exception:
Exception type: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault]
Message: System.Web.HttpUnhandledException (0x80004005): Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: CRM Parameter Filter - Invalid parameter 'custom_customertype=account' in Request.QueryString on page /form/Data.aspx.
Any idea to solve this?

Teo
Hi Gautam,
Please refer the below link-
msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg334375.aspx
Extract here-
================
For simple lookups you must set the value and the text to display in the lookup. Use the suffix “name” with the name of the attribute to set the value for the text.
Don’t use any other arguments.
For customer and owner lookups you must set the value and the name in the same way you set them for simple lookups. In addition you must use the suffix “type” to specify the type of entity. Allowable values are account, contact, systemuser, and team.
You can’t set the values for partylist or regarding lookups.
======================
Hope this helps.
Yes Ravi you are correct , but I have not seen anywhere written that we don't need to pass entity type for custom lookup which is not multi entity, everywhere written the same and need to pass entity type.
Even why you think passing entity type will give error ? Is there any documentation for that ?
Hi Goutam,
You need the type if the lookup is of multi entity type such as customer.
Hope this helps.
I got the resolution for this issue-
I removed below line and its working for me , not sure why everywhere written we need to pass entity type even MSDN as well , seems its not correct sometimes.
parameters["poc_testlookupfieldtype"] = "contact";
Here is the final code which is working for me .
var parameters = {};
parameters["poc_testlookupfield"] = "2888888E-94D6-E111-9B1D-00155D9D700B";
parameters["poc_testlookupfieldname"] = "Goutam Das";
//No need to pass entity type here
parameters["poc_testtextfield"] = "test text";
// Open the window.
Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("poc_testentity", null, parameters);
Hope this will helps others , I am verifying this as an answer.
