I have a one-to-many relationship between the accounts entity and a custom entity called clients where an account can have many clients. I am developing a powerapp component that I want to display details about the latest added client on the accounts main form.
What I’d like to know is how I would identify the account being viewed (as in get the relationship identifier) and retrieve the related data from the client entity.
Is this possible?
If I understand your relationship it is 1(Account)-->N (clients).
so based on this, on your every client record you will have a lookup filed (relationship) filed which will look up to Account Record.
below is an example for Javascript but this will give you understanding of data structure and relationship
Example: get all contacts for a Parent Account

function success(results) {
console.log(results);
for (var i = 0; i < results.entities.length; i++) {
var result = results.entities[i];
// Columns
var contactid = result["contactid"]; // Guid
var parentcustomerid = result["_parentcustomerid_value"]; // Customer
var parentcustomerid_formatted = result["_parentcustomerid_value#OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue"];
var parentcustomerid_lookuplogicalname = result["_parentcustomerid_value#Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.lookuplogicalname"];
var fullname = result["fullname"]; // Text
}
},
function(error) {
console.log(error.message);
}
);

I am an inexperience technical developer working on my first SuiteScript using SuiteScript 1.0. I am getting an SSS_MISSING_REQD_ARGUMENT error, but I am sure there are many more in my code. The purpose of the script is to populate the department field on the expense record line item from a joined record. The end user will select a Project on the expense line, and the script should look up the department on the project record (a custom field) and add the value to the native department field. Code is copied below.
function ProjectSegment ()
{
var record = nlapiLoadRecord(nlapiGetRecordType(), nlapiGetRecordId());
var recordID = nlapiGetRecordId(record);
//internal ID of project record
var project = nlapiGetField ('custcol_nra_expense_project');
//load project record
var precord = nlapiLoadRecord('job', project);
//get department on project record (internal ID)
var pdepartment = precord.GetFieldValue('custentity_nra_dept_project');
//get project name from project record
var projectName = precord.GetFieldText('entityid');
//load existing search
var search = nlapiLoadSearch('job','customsearch161');
//add filter to include project name
search.addFilter(new nlobjSearchFilter('entityid',null,'is',projectName));
//run search
var resultSet = search.runSearch();
//get department line
var departmentResult = new nlobjSearchColumn('custentity_nra_dept_project');
//set value
nlapiSetFieldTexts('job','department',1,departmentResult)
//record.commitLineItem('department');
nlapiSubmitRecord(record, true);
}
//internal ID of project record
var project = nlapiGetFieldValue ('custcol_nra_expense_project');
Praveen Kumar's response is correct regarding the missing required argument, but there are many other issues with the script as you've surmised.
Side notes:
The getFieldValue and getFieldText methods of nlobjRecord are not capitalized.
For performance reasons, you could/should use a search to get the values you need from the job record. Loading a record just to get field values is wasteful unless you mean to change the record.
Your search filter should probably be based on the value (not text) of the entityid in the job record.
Your desired search column probably is invalid (I don't think a custentity field could be on a job record).
Getting the search result is incorrect.
You want something like this instead:
var result = resultSet.getResults(0, 1);
if (result) {
var department = result.getValue('custentity_nra_dept_project');
// etc.
}
All that said, though, from your description, I don't think you need the search anyway. Once you have pdepartment (again, using precord.getFieldValue), I think all you need is:
record.setFieldValue('department', pdepartment);
Or if you're setting the line-level department, it would be different.
What kind of script is this? I'd like to make more recommendations, but it depends on what's going on.
I am currently trying to append data through I pull from Firebase to a table in the order of newest to oldest posts. I currently have the following setup in my code base (simplified to address issue):
var theDataRef = new Firebase('https://my-app.firebaseio.com');
theDataRef.orderByChild("timestamp").limitToLast(25).on('child_added', function (snapshot) {
var message = snapshot.val();
displaytableRow(message.name, message.text);
}
function displaytableRow(name, message) {
$("#sch").find('tbody > tr:first')
.before($("<tr><td><div>" + name + ":" + message + "</div></td></tr>"))
};
I have tried to create a table that displays newest to oldest data by using both firebase and jquery techniques but every time my data is displayed in a random order. I have a working timestamp field on every record in my data as well but even ordering by that does not solve the problem. Has anybody had any experience building this successfully?
EDIT:
The timestamp is gotten with the following code:
var timestamp = Firebase.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP;
And the database architecture is structured like so:
If you want to order your posts from newest to oldest you can do the following:
1/ Store a field in your post that is the inverse of the TimeStamp as follows:
var tDate = new Date().getTime();
var postData = {
//.....
timestampInverted: (0 - tDate),
//.....
};
2/ Query your posts ordered by this field as follows:
theDataRef.orderByChild("timestampInverted").limitToLast(25).once('value', function(snapshot) {
snapshot.forEach(function(childSnapshot) {
displaytableRow(childSnapshot.val().name, childSnapshot.val().text);
});
});
It is important to note that theDataRef.orderByChild("timestampInverted").limitToLast(25) returns a Query, which returns a DataSnapshot : Therefore you need to use snapshot.forEach() (see doc here) to iterate over the different posts items.
Also note that "even when there is only a single match for the query, the snapshot is still a list; it just contains a single item. To access the item, you always need to loop over the snapshot".
Hello i am using a parse server as a backend for my ionic 2 app
now i have a table of users containing a freinds column with object ids from the same class and this cloumn type is a relation
i managed to get the user friends through the following code
var currentUser = Parse.User.current();
if (currentUser) {
var friendRelation = currentUser.relation('friends');
friendRelation.query().find({
success: function(friends) {
for (var i = 0; i< friends.length; i++) {
var object = friends[i];
this.friendsglobalvariable.push(object)
}
}
});
my problem is that each friend of these has a column of type pointer which points to photos class containg a profile picture
when i try to read this pointer it only gives me the object id of the photo
how i can get all the photo details from pointer included relation query
I managed to solve it my self
it already gives all the pointer details with the relation but the problem was that profile photo field for some friends was null
so i add some checks in the template and it works now
My firebase db structure is given below,
users
fb-user-key1
user1-details1
Tags
Tag-key1
"name":"value"
Tag-key2
"name":"value"
fb-user-key2
user1-details2
Tags
Tag-key1
"name":"value"
Tag-Key1 & user-key's are generated by firebase with push(). firebase code to access the content is,
var fbref = firebase.database().ref("users");
fbref.child("Tags").on("child_added", function(e){
var Tagobj = e.val().name;
console.log(Tagobj);
});
This one is not returning anything. I am not able to access name:value pair in the above data structure.
`
adding modified code,
firebase.database().ref("users").on("child_added",function(e) { var Tagobj = e.val().Tags; });
Output of the above code is output data structure
How to access that name value pairs?? firebase keys are issue?
Not getting, where I am wrong. Appreciate your inputs.
Since Tags is a child property of each user, then you have to read it off of each user object.
If you want all Tags for all users, assuming Tags for each user is not updated after a user is created, you can do this:
tagsPerUserId = {};
firebase.datatabs().ref('users').on('child_added', function(snap) {
tagsPerUserId[snap.key] = snap.value().Tags;
// TODO: Notify view that tagerPerUserId is updated and needs to be re-rendered
console.log(`Tags for userId ${snap.key}: ${snap.value().Tags}`);
});
This way you will also get Tags of new users when they are created, but you will not get updates to Tags of existing users.
This function buttonBuzz() works inside the Forms of the Entities Account, Contacts and Leads. But not in the Opportunity form.
Mainly because there is no telephone1 attribute. There is however a Contact entity added with "Quick View" in a section with a telephonenumber inside.
I think it can be accessed with the telephone1 as well just not with Xrm.page
Any ideas how i can grab the attribute from inside the "quick view"?
I dont know if the "Quick view" window is a form of an iFrame. And if it is i have no clue how to access it with the Xrm.Page.getAttribute("telephone1").getValue();
function buttonBuzz(exObj) {
var phoneNumber;
// Here i store the "telephone1" Attribute from the current .page
phoneNumber = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("telephone1").getValue();
if (phoneNumber != null) { **Sends phonenumber** } ...
Quick Views display data from a record selected in a lookup field, in this case a Contact. You can query data from related records using the OData endpoint.
You first need to get the Guid of the record selected:
var contactId = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("parentcontactid")[0].id || null;
You would then need to send a SDK.REST request, passing parameters for the Id of the record (contactId), entityName and the columns:
var entityName = "Contact";
var columns = "Address1_Telephone1, FirstName, LastName";
SDK.REST.retrieveRecord(contactId, entityName, columns, null, function(result) {
// Success, logic goes here.
var address1_Telephone1 = result.Address1_Telephone1;
}, function(e) {
console.error(e.message);
});
As well as your JavaScript file, you would need to include the SDK.REST.js file that is included in the MS CRM SDK download within your Opportunity form libraries.
You can pull that field up from the Contact into the Opportunity by creating a Calculated Field, setting it equal to parentcontactid.telephone1
Put the field on the form, and you'll be able to .getAttribute() it like any other Opportunity field (being Calculated, it updates itself whenever the source changes).
