Hi, how can we set selected optionset value through javascript. For example, I have two optionsets: optionsetA, optionsetB, the selected value in optionsetB should be based on optionsetA.

    Hi,

     did you try Xrm.Page.getAttribute('your attribute name').setValue(12345678_your_option_set_value)?

      Also, this might be useful:

    To set an optionset value

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("<your optionset name>").setValue("<your option>")

    To get an optionset value

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("<your optionset name>").getValue()

    If you are looking for dependent option sets, please refer below example

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg594433.aspx

    To remove an option

    Xrm.Page.getControl("<your optionset name>").removeOption("<your option>");

    To add an option

    Xrm.Page.getControl("<your optionset name>").addOption("<your option>");

    To remove all options

    Xrm.Page.getControl("<your optionset name>").clearOptions();

    Hi, Guys, that is quite helpful, but I can not do clear the optionset, and re-add it with new items? since it gaves me this error, when loading the form.

        Xrm.Page.getControl("header_statuscode").clearOptions();
    var progress ={value:1,text:"In Progress"};
    var hold = {value:2,text:"On Hold"};
    var scheduled= {value:3,text:"Scheduled"};
    var transferred ={value:491050000,text:"Transferred"};
    Xrm.Page.getControl("header_statuscode").addOption(transferred);
    Xrm.Page.getControl("header_statuscode").addOption(progress);
    Xrm.Page.getControl("header_statuscode").addOption(hold);
    Xrm.Page.getControl("header_statuscode").addOption(scheduled);  
    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("header_statuscode").setValue(2);

    On getAttribute the field name should be statuscode and not header_statuscode

    I think that is to access to the header fields, it worked in other lines.

    You need "header" when accessing controls, not when accessing the attributes

    Thanks. I changed that, but the status reason optionset had no value selected.

    I still got empty selected status reason

    Do you see them in the list when you click on the status reason field?

    A quick question,

    do you have these options in optionset or you are adding new options that does not exist in optionset?

    Are the newly added options visible in optionset?
