Saving Contents of Read-Only Fields

Beantwortet Saving Contents of Read-Only Fields

    I have written a JScript routine that does calculations based on the contents and real-time changes in a number of source fields and posts the results to a target field.  Ideally, this target field should be set as read-only.  Because I want to use the value in the target field latter in a roll-up to it's parent, I want the calculated value saved to the DB.  Through trial-and-error, I learned that the values in read-only fileds are not saved to the databas when the form's Save, Save+Close, Save+New, etc. buttons are clicked.

    Does someone have a solution where I can save the contents of these calculated fields while keeping them read-only?

    Thanks for any help.

    Assuming you're using CRM 2011, you must call the read-only fields' setSubmitMode method:

    Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_readonlyfield").setValue(28.3);
Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_readonlyfield").setSubmitMode("always");

    In CRM 4.0 the equivalent is:

    crmForm.all.new_readonlyfield.DataValue = 28.3;
crmForm.all.new_readonlyfield.ForceSubmit = true;

    Thanks Pat.  So can I do this on the Form Load event and have it persist for the session or do I have to do it as a part of the calc function itself?

    Whenever you set a field's value, you force its submission; in that order, as per my sample code.  I haven't seen your code, but it sounds like you will do it as part of the calculation.

    Js,

    I'm not sure what you mean.  It does not seem to make much sense to have a required field be read-only as you would never be able to save the record.  I guess you could set the read-only/required field in code if that makes sense in your situation.  It would be done as illustrted by pogo earlier:

       Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_readonlyfield").setValue(<some value here>);
       Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_readonlyfield").setSubmitMode("always");

    I hope this helps.

    Js,

    Ok then, you should be able to insert your value in the above code at the point marked "<some value here>".

    Hi Kahuna,

    thank you for your answer. I think the best way for me is:

    Uncheck as Only-Read field. Disable the field in Javascript and check if the value != null in OnSave method.
