Just imagine that you need to define the context in which “Quick Create Form” was opened and depending on the context – to do some additional operations. In this short post I provide supported code you can use to define it.
Create JavaScript webresource and add following code inside:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 |
function quickCreateOnLoad(){ //this variable contains entity reference to the parent record var parentRecordReference = Xrm.Utility.getPageContext().input.createFromEntity; //if this variable is null then Quick Create Form was called from the Global Menu //or from some other code without setting the parent record context if (parentRecordReference == null){ return; } //you can use value of parentRecordReference in your code console.log(parentRecordReference.id); console.log(parentRecordReference.entityType); console.log(parentRecordReference.name); } |
Add this webresource to the “Quick Create Form” and register quickCreateOnLoad to handle OnLoad event of the form.
