    hello friends.

    i need help in  refreshing an entity form after it is updated by a c# plug-in.

    scenario:
    entity A has a custom button i created (with ribbon editor)

    pressing the button will run a jscript that will update entity B.

    once entity B gets updated a plugin (c# code) is fired

    the plugin updates entity A.

    all works great.

    The problem is: How to refresh the form for entity A ? (we open this form to press the button and its fields values are updated by the plugin - how do i see the new values - how to reload/refresh the form?)

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    There is no way to refresh crm entity form through plugin, but you can do a workaround using javascript, you can write a function in your entity a that will run after specific time slot and will check entity a in database if there is some updated value for your field you can call save method to refresh your form.

    you can refer http://a33ik.blogspot.in/2009/05/page-refresh.html (this is for ms crm 4.0, but you can write function in same way for ms crm 2011)

    you can call your script on load of your entity and set time to call it after some interval to check update.

    i have used the code (midified to my system and entities)
    and assigned it to run for an "OnLoad" event.
    now i have a problem of an infinite loop.

    any ideas ?

    Hi Miro,

    You can try this in the Javascript function where you are updating entity B.  After the updation, you can wait for a few seconds, say 5 or 10 seconds and then reload the form.

    //Wait for 5 seconds and reload the entity A form.

    setTimeout(function(){window.location.reload(true);}, 5000);

    Regards,

    Palani K.B.
