Set a default pricelist in Microsoft CRM

When you start to use Microsoft CRM, you don't always want to hassle with the pricelist. Certainly not if you just want to input simple information.

Even later on, when you want to add *a lot* of information, you can use this snippet to lighten your load.

Add this code to the Form_Load-routine and/or the Form_Save-routine.

The latter will make sure that if the field is intentionally left blank, it is updated just before the save-action.

if(crmForm.all.pricelevelid.DataValue == null)
{
  //Create an array to set as the DataValue for the lookup control.
  var lookupData = new Array();
  //Create an Object add to the array.
  var lookupItem= new Object();
  //Set the id, typename, and name properties to the object.
  // You should check your system for the actual ID.
  lookupItem.id = '07C0BC95-A8EF-DE11-A87B-00505681263E';
  lookupItem.typename = 'pricelevel';
  lookupItem.name = 'Standaard';
  // Add the object to the array.
  lookupData[0] = lookupItem;
  // Set the value of the lookup field to the value of the array.
  crmForm.all.pricelevelid.DataValue = lookupData;
}
