Opportunity Form
Posted by GreenTurtle on July 2nd, 2008


I want to have the same attribute twice in the same Opportunity Form (view).
Is that possible? If I try to add the attribute I cannot find it (and I
suppose it's because the attribute has already been added).
Cheers,

Hi,
Microsoft CRM doesn’t provide duplicate fields on the form. Basically you
need to trick the form by creating a duplicate field with slightly different
name and add it on the form. Than using JScript, you can make those fields
interdependent.

OK, I see. The problem is that I want to use the same "database" (customerid
= Accounts). I don't want to add all my Accounts again. Is this possible and
if so how? I'm not familiar with JScript.

Hi,
You cannot have composite fields like "Customer". Do you need second field
for readonly purposes only or you want it editable?
Please give me details.

Today I have a field called Potentional Customer (attr. customerid) but I
also want to have a field called Dealer (from same customerid attribute). And
it should be editable.

Hi,
You need to create a new relationship and than add lookup field on the form.

I suppose you are talking about CRM 4. Following is an article for MS CRM 3
but something similar is possible in CRM 4 for account and opportunity.
