Issue with addCustomView on Multi-Select Lookup

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ambitiousneeraj

Does anyone know, how addCustomView will work perfectly when it is applied on a multi-select lookup, It adds that view to the list but doesn't set to default or does't populate the filtered records even if i pass true in last parameter of addCustomview function.

it works fine for single entity lookups, but not for multi-select.

Xrm.Page.getControl("record2id").addCustomView(viewId, entitityName, viewDisplayName, fetchXml, layoutXml, true) is working fine for single entity selection lookup but not for multiple entity selection lookup.

any idea how that can be fixed?

    Hi,

    I tried to implement this on Email TO field using below code:

    function preFilterLookup() {
    debugger;
    Xrm.Page.getControl("to").addPreSearch(function () {
        addLookupFilter();

    });
}
function addLookupFilter() {

    var fetchXml = '<filter type="and"><condition attribute="emailaddress1" value="%b%" operator="like"/></filter>';
    Xrm.Page.getControl("to").addCustomFilter(fetchXml);
	
}

    it Filters like this:

    The main issue with Multi entity lookup is to set filter as there are few common fields which are present in all entities. You can check for each lookup type and set a different condition for each lookup type.

    Dear friend- this doesn't work on lookup where it has many entities to choose on Lookup View window.
