Work hours dynamics crm 2013

Question

I'd like to set new appointments to default to start of work day for the currently logged-in user in dynamics 2013 (on premises if it matters).

Is there any way to do a query against the user's work hours via JavaScript, or do I need to do this with a plugin as in the SDK example, or is there some other way to accomplish this without custom code?

Answer 1

Yes.

If the work hours are stored in CRM... You can use rest , the sdk.soap.js , JCL or another JavaScript library to query the work hours for the user.

If not stored in CRM but stored elsewhere, you have a few options (plugin, JSONP, etc.)

Lastly, if you can deduce the logic based on the user attributes/roles, you can do this via JavaScript.

Any approach will lead to having JavaScript on the form load setting the default time. Make sure to check the form type.
