Code Sample 2 for Creating a Custom Button for Validation

The following sample code creates a custom button labeled Validate on the Opportunity Detail page. When the button is clicked, a validate function is called to validate the values of the Primary Revenue Amount field. The sample code also hides the Add button on the Contact related information applet.

// entry point for running custom code

oraclecrmod.onReady(function()

{

// OPPORTUNITY VALIDATE EXAMPLE //

// when on the Opportunity Detail page

if(oraclecrmod.ctx.object == "Opportunity" && oraclecrmod.ctx.isDetailPage())

{

// define validate function

function validate()

{

var revenue = oraclecrmod.getField("Primary Revenue Amount").getValue();

// convert to currency string to number

var number = Number(revenue.replace(/[^0-9\.]+/g, ""));

// validate custom business logic goes here based on field values retrieved

if (number > 0) {

}

}

// get the title bar

titleBar = oraclecrmod.getTitleBar("OpportunityFormTB");

// create the new Validate button

button = oraclecrmod.createButton({

id:"ValidateButton",

text:"Validate",

parent:titleBar

});

// associate the validate function with the button click event

button.on("click", validate);

// get the Add button and hide it

oraclecrmod.getButton("BTN_TB_ContactRoleChildList_ContactRoleNewNav").hide();

}

});
