I am attempting to use the ribbon workbench and create a new "New" button and all is going fine except the JS.
So I am attempting to set several Lookup fields and cannot get it to work properly. If I do a single lookup it populates perfectly fine, I have tested with multiple fields but only one will fill in.

Reportfunction newService_Button(){
var parameters = {};
parameters["formid"] = "GUID NUMBER GOES HERE";
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc") != null){
parameters["cyb_poc"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_pocname"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].name;
parameters["cyb_poctype"] = "contact";
};
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member") != null){
parameters["cyb_member"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_membername"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member").getValue()[0].name;
parameters["cyb_membernametype"] = "cyb_member";
};
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa") != null){
parameters["cyb_loa"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_loaname"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa").getValue()[0].name;
parameters["cyb_loatype"] = "cyb_loa";
};
Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("cyb_service", null, parameters);
}
All the code works and pulls the information, but doesn't populate on the new form, just one of the lookup fields.
I was not aware of the ability to mapping fields, this helps so much, thank you!!! :D
You have a new follower on your sites. :P
I believe there is no need to create any buttons. Just use the fields mapping and it'll do the job for you - www.marksgroup.net/.../
Sure, I have a Service (cyb_service) entity/form that has lookup fields to contact, cyb_loa, and cyb_member.
I am attempting to use the Ribbon Workbench to create a new "New" button for the sub-grid's, basically hide the current New and add my own custom one.
As the new button will be on sub-grid's on each of the contact, cyb_loa, and and cyb_member forms not all of the information/fields will be shown/available on those forms.
Example: There is an lookup field POC (contact) on the Member form but not on the LOA (cyb_loa) form.
Hence the Xrm.Page.getAttribute("field") != null scenarios, so if it cant find it currently on the form do not attempt to add it to the parameters.
a33ik Thank you for the reply, but that is one of the try's I had tried in the past, but I did attempt to use it again just in case I had something different.
Couple of things though, I have to have it as the Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc") vs Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue() due to the fact that that I am applying it to the sub-grid which is on different entities meaning that all those fields will be available to pass in as parameters. So if I call it the way I have it will return null if the field doesn't even exist on the form but return something if it is.
Also, I did attempt p["cyb_poctype"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].entityType; for the type with no luck as what I had in there returns the same.
Using either my code or the one you supplied it only populates the POC (contact) field, but if I remove that from the code it will populate the Member (cyb_member) field.
For the lulz I even tried using how new records are made with the p["cyb_POC@odata.bind"] = "/contacts("+Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1)+")"; and that did not work either.
I am definitely open to any other suggestions.
Hello,
Try the following instead:

function newService_Button(){
var parameters = {};
parameters["formid"] = "GUID NUMBER GOES HERE";
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue() != null){
parameters["cyb_poc"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_pocname"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_poc").getValue()[0].name;
}
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member").getValue() != null){
parameters["cyb_member"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_membername"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_member").getValue()[0].name;
}
if(Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa").getValue() != null){
parameters["cyb_loa"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa").getValue()[0].id.slice(1,-1);
parameters["cyb_loaname"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("cyb_loa").getValue()[0].name;
}
Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("cyb_service", null, parameters);
}
