This article will discuss how to check if the user belongs to Team_123, Team_456,Team_789, or Team_101.

new_number- name of the form field that accepts integer value

The code below uses SOAP message to retrieve user's team. We will be needing the user's id. To get this:

Code: Select all

var OwnerID = Xrm.Page.context.getUserId();

The name of our method is checkUserTeam(), this method retrieves user's team and check the number field value in the form to check if the user is authorize or not.

Code: Select all

function checkUserTeam() {

    var OwnerID = Xrm.Page.context.getUserId();
