Code Sample for a Custom Button That Creates a Record

The following code sample illustrates the use of the createRecord() method to create an Account record with three fields, Location, Type, and Description, when a button created with the createButton() method and labeled Test Create is clicked.

oraclecrmod.onReady(

function()

{

if(oraclecrmod.ctx.isObject("Account") && oraclecrmod.ctx.isDetailPage())

{

var callback = function(request,response)

{

   var data = "Response Data: ";

   var status = response.status;

   var error = "Error message: "

   if (status == "OK")

   {

      error += status;

   }

   else

   {

      error += response.errors;

   }

   var dataObj = response.data;

   if (dataObj != null)

   {

      data += "Id = " + response.getRowId() + ", Mod Id = " + response.getModId();

   }

   else

   {

      data += "Data is Null";

   }

   alert(data + "\n" + status + "\n" + error);

};

var createRecord = function()

{

  oraclecrmod.dataSvc.createRecord("Account", {Name : "Account Name Create123",Location : "Location Test", Type : "Customer", Description : "Description Test"}, "", callback);

};

var tb = oraclecrmod.getTitleBar("AccountFormTB");

var bt = oraclecrmod.createButton({id:"TestCreateBtn",text:"Test Create",parent:tb});

bt.on("click",createRecord);

}

}

);
