Hi..
ReplyDeleteThank a lot for this post.
It is very clear for beginner like me.
But I didn2t undestand what I will write to
instead of Cmd_JavaScript1
I have a JS file and one method..Will I write my metod name isntead of Cmd_JavaScript1 ?
Please help me.It is very important for me.
Thanks.
Hi Huseyin...
ReplyDelete"Cmd_JavaScript1" is the name of the command definition. you can provide any name for this..But both the places you have to give same id, while calling the command and defining the command..
It's not the function name. In the command definition you have to call the js file with the function name..
<CommandDefinition Id="Cmd_JavaScript1">
<EnableRules>
<EnableRule Id="Mscrm.Enabled" />
</EnableRules>
<DisplayRules />
<Actions>
<!-- call java script library function -->
// Here you needs to call you js file and in FunctionName provide your js function.
<JavaScriptFunction Library="$webresource:new_jscrlib" FunctionName="myfunction"></JavaScriptFunction>
</Actions>
</CommandDefinition>
Hi GuruPrasad,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for this post.Plz send ur mailid.Some doubt in mscrm5 i will clarify that doubt.

ReplyDeleteHi Balhinio,
ReplyDeleteYou need to add CrmParameter=SelectedControlSelectedItemIds xml node into ribbon Actions JavaScriptFunction xml node
<CommandDefinition Id="Cmd_JavaScript1">
<EnableRules>
<EnableRule Id="Mscrm.Enabled" />
</EnableRules>
<DisplayRules />
<Actions>
<!-- call java script library function -->
<JavaScriptFunction Library="$webresource:new_jscrlib" FunctionName="myfunction">
<CrmParameter Value="SelectedControlSelectedItemIds"/></JavaScriptFunction>
</Actions>
</CommandDefinition>
Change the java script function in the following way..
function myfunction(selectedRecordIds) {
//selectedRecordIds will recieve all GUIDS in comma seperated
}
Great Code...
ReplyDeleteThanks its really helpful.
