Posted on by Prashant.ITT 153

Hi all,


I want to take column name from one table and then fill them in another table as row in one column using plugin. Whenever I create a column then the column name should automatically fetched from plugin and then that column name should go as row in another table.

I don' t want to create new entity. I have two table created with name Company Background Assessment and Assessment Score Report. Whenever i create any new column in the company background Assessment then a row should be created in the second table i.e. Assessment score report. And in Assessment score report, in under one column all the row should be added coming from adding columns in company background assessment.


Can anyone help with the code ?

Thanks in advance

    I know, but you have find some way to change the user action. because we do not have any trigger point which will help us to identify the column creation action.

    That's why i asked you to try with PCF or webresource.

    Please try to connect with Microsoft for the same.

    Thank you Pradeep

    But from PCF control, I have to create the field from the code itself and this is not want I want. Columns should be created from the table.

    I tried but did not find any trigger point for this.

    But I have on suggestion, you can create custom PCF control and from PCF control tries to create field for the entity programmatically.

    check below code to create field

    stackoverflow.com/.../crm-create-field-programmatically

    Once field created then write a logic to create row on related table.

    PCF control or webresource it is upto you.

    Is there anyway to do that whenever we create new column then it should trigger?

    Yeah But Identifying trigger point for the plugin is difficult.

    There is no way with OOB. So, I want write a plugin to do achieve this functionality.
