Publisher in Power Platform

Introduction:

 

As per Out of Behavior, Power platform will provide default prefix for custom entities as new_ or cr608_. To create custom prefix we need to create a publisher so that we can use our custom prefix while creating custom entities or custom fields in custom tables or OOB tables.

 

Implementation Steps:

 

1. Navigate to https://make.powerapps.com

 

2. Click on Solutions

 

3. Then Click on New Solution then select New Publisher Button

 

 

4. It will Navigate to another screen to Create a Publisher. Enter the Mandatory Details as Display Name/Name/Prefix

In this Demo am selected my Prefix as demo

 

 

5. If you want to enter Contact details about the publisher click on Contact and enter the details (Not Mandatory)

 

 

6. Once Done Click On Save Button to Save the Publisher

 

 

That's it. This is how we need to create Publisher.

Add Custom Icons in Sub-Grid or View in Model Driven Apps or CRM

Introduction:

In this blog we will see how to Add an Image or Icon in SUBGRID / VIEWS in Model Driven Apps or Dynamics CRM

Steps to Follow:

In this example in Opportunity Entity i have created an Option Set field

1. Submitted

2. Sent for Approval

3. Approved

4. Rejected

I have downloaded Four images and store it in CRM as Web Resources(Settings --> Customization--> Customize the system --> WebResource--> New WebResource --> Type as PNG)

As the Above mentioned you need to Process it for storing the PNG

Once Above steps done create an WebResource for JavaScript(Settings --> Customization--> Customize the system --> WebResource--> New WebResource --> Type as JavaScript)

Then write the below code in the TEXT Editor Javascript

function populateImageValuesinGrid(rowDataFromGrid) {

    debugger;

    var getRows = JSON.parse(rowDataFromGrid);

    var currentRecordStatus = getRows.cr608_currentrecordstatus;

    var populateimageValues = "";

    var populateTooltip = "";

    switch (currentRecordStatus) {

        case "Submitted":

            populateimageValues = "SUBMITTED WEBRESOURCE NAME";//cr608_submited

            populateTooltip = "Submitted";

            break;

        case "Approved":

            populateimageValues ="Approved WEBRESOURCE NAME";//cr608_Approved

            populateTooltip = "Approved";

            break;

        case "Rejected":

            populateimageValues = "Rejected WEBRESOURCE NAME";//cr608_rejcted

            populateTooltip = "Rejected";

            break;

        case "Sent For Approval":

            populateimageValues = "SFA WEBRESOURCE NAME";//cr608_sent for approval

            populateTooltip = "Sent For Approval";

            break;

    }

    var returnArrayValues = [populateimageValues, populateTooltip];

    return returnArrayValues;

}

Once Pasted the above script--> Click Save then Publish

Once Publish Done

Open the Opportunity Entity from Solutions --> then click on View(here am going to populate in Opportunity association view)--> Open it then select open Classic View --> then Select the STATUS COLUMN(where you want to show images)

then Input the WebResource Name then Input the FUNCTION name --> Click Ok --> Save and Close --> PUBLISH

Show or Hide Command Bar using JavaScript in DataVerse/ Dynamics 365

 

Introduction:

In this Blog we will see how to show or hide Command bar using JavaScript in Both Dataverse/Model Driven Apps/ CRM

Below is the Sample Screen Shot for Command bar

If we want to hide any button or edit command we can use RIBBON Workbench or Customize Using XML. But there is no other functionality for hiding whole Command Bar.

To recover from this Situation Microsoft introduced a new Feature for Show or Hide functionality

Script to Use:

formContext.ui.headerSection.setCommandBarVisible(BOOLEAN);

To Utilize in script

function showOrHideCommandBar(executionContext)

{

var formContext = executionContext.getFromContext();

formContext.ui.headerSection.setCommandBarVisible(false); // True to enable // False to hidden

}

That's it :)
