Javascript sample needed - Hide field when Security Role = X

Posted on by Chrisbra22

Hi,
Looking for a quick sample code to hide a field (msdyn_systemstatus) on the Work Order entity when user Security Role = "*BF Field Service - Resource". Does anyone have a few lines for this that I can review and test?

Thanks!

Hello,

Check this code:

function workorderOnLoad(executionContext) { var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var userRoles = Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext().userSettings.roles.getAll(); var roleAvailable = userRoles.some(function(role) { return role.name === "*BF Field Service - Resource"; }); formContext.getControl("msdyn_systemstatus").setVisible(!roleAvailable); }

Thanks! Looks like when I implement that onLoad there is an error on setVisible...

TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'setVisible')

Are you sure that the field is present on the form? Can you please provide the screenshot of the form?

It is in the header. It does have Field Level Security against it OOB.

Gotcha. Header controls are different. Try to use the following code:

function workorderOnLoad(executionContext) { var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var userRoles = Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext().userSettings.roles.getAll(); var roleAvailable = userRoles.some(function(role) { return role.name === "*BF Field Service - Resource"; }); formContext.getControl("header_process_msdyn_systemstatus").setVisible(!roleAvailable); }

Ok. Checked in my instance. The right name for that control is header_msdyn_systemstatus. Check that out.

OK, error has ceased to appear. However, the I have the Security Role and the field still is shown on the form (header). Any ideas?

Can you please provide the exact name of the role?

Maybe need to use GUID instead of name?
