Formatting Telephone Numbers (CRM 2011)

  • Article

This post talks about formatting phone number is US style. The code already available in CRM v4 SDK Guide, however I have re-written the same thing in CRM v2011 model.

It only part of code which is different here in the usage of context class available in XRM pattern.

function validatePhone()
{ 

var phone = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("telephone1");
var sTmp = phone.getValue().replace(/[^0-9]/g, "");
phoneRegex = /^\d{10}$/; 

if(!sTmp.match(phoneRegex))
{
alert("Phone must contain 10 numbers.") ;
}
else
{
switch(sTmp.length)
{
case "4105551212".length:
phone.setValue( "(" + sTmp.substr(0, 3) + ") " + sTmp.substr(3, 3) + "-" + sTmp.substr(6, 4));
break;

case "5551212".length:
phone.setValue= sTmp.substr(0, 3) + "-" + sTmp.substr(3, 4);
break;

}
} 
}

    I wish this function had been done so that it would work for all phone number fields.

    To make it working for all the phone numbers, you will need to rewrite this for different fields or else you can derive a logic of putting the fields into array and run the formatting on save or something.
