PCF - Create generic controls

Posted on by PhillyNJ

Hi,

I've been tasked with building a calculator popup form for D365 CE. The requirements is they want it placed on the Quote or Order form. The purpose of the calculator would to receive an number input (percentage). The control would iterate over each quote or order line and calculate the selling price. I am familiar with React and able to build some simple controls.

My question is, PCF controls are either bound to a field or dataset. Is there a way to build a generic control that is not bound to a field or dataset, but rather to form? If PCF is not the way to accomplish this, what may be my other options? Below is an example of what the form looks like in our current CRM (not CE).

Thanks in advance.

RE: PCF - Create generic controls

right now a PCF control needs to be bounded, you can bound for example to a text field (like the name one) in order to have it on the form, many controls have a similar approach, for example this one https://pcf.gallery/mortgage-calculator/ (pay attention that is very old).

hope it helps
