Looking up Address field on Custom Entity in CRM 2011

Question

I have an entity called Customer Site from which I store Site information. From this site I create devices (another custom entity). I have created relevent address fields to those of the address entity in my customer site entity and I am trying to (based on an account) fill my site fields with those of a selected address from the account.

I referred to this article for doing so, http://xrmexpertz.com/2012/01/24/lookup-address-for-custom-entities-in-crm-2011/

I've altered the javascript and xml provided in the link to reflect my entities and my web resource.

My problem is that when i click the button that should execute the JavaScript it does nothing, and if I try to save a site without a account it sends me and error.

this is my java script.

function CustomLookup() {
'use strict';
var aoItems = getFieldValue("kez_SiteInfo_AccountId");

if (aoItems == null) {

    alert(“Account is not Selected”);

    return;

}

var _object = openStdDlg(“ / sfa / quotes / dlg_lookupaddress.aspx ? headerForm = 1 & parentType = 1 & parentId = ” + aoItems[0].id + “ & willCall = 0″, “LookupAddress”, 500, 330, true);

if (object) {

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_name”, object.Address.Name);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_line1″, object.Address.Line1);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_line2″, object.Address.Line2);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_line3″, object.Address.Line3);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_city”, object.Address.City);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_province”, object.Address.StateOrProvince);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_postalcode”, object.Address.PostalCode);

    setFieldValue(“kez_address1_country”, object.Address.Country);

}

}

function setFieldValue(fieldName, fieldValue) {

Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fieldName).setValue(fieldValue);

}

This is the error is gives

What is on line 7 of the WebResource called kez_GetLocation? — glosrob
I found the problem but at the moment i can't answer my own question. To answer the fist comment, line 7 throws an error because the quotes used in the link I provided were not recognized by CRM so I just removed and readded them and it fixed that. — Aaron
kez_GetLocation is the JS i provided above with the function CustomLookup. — Aaron
As of right now the code is working perfectly, when I can i'll upload the final working code and answer the question. — Aaron

I ended up solving the problem, for one the source i listed uses quotes not recognized by CRM. Next I had to use XRM.getAttribute instead of getFieldValue.

The final and working code is below:

function CustomLookup() {
'use strict';
var aoItems = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('kez_siteinfo_accountid').getValue();
if (aoItems == null) {

    alert("Account is not Selected");

    return;

}

var _object = openStdDlg("/sfa/quotes/dlg_lookupaddress.aspx?headerForm=1&parentType=1&parentId=" + aoItems[0].id + "&willCall=0", "LookupAddress", 500, 330, true);

    if (object) {

    setFieldValue("kez_address1_name", object.Address.Name);

    setFieldValue("kez_address1_line1", object.Address.Line1);

    setFieldValue("kez_address1_line2", object.Address.Line2);

    setFieldValue("kez_address1_line3", object.Address.Line3);

        setFieldValue("kez_address1_city", object.Address.City);

        setFieldValue("kez_address1_province", object.Address.StateOrProvince);

        setFieldValue("kez_address1_postalcode", object.Address.PostalCode);

        setFieldValue("kez_address1_country", object.Address.Country);

    }

}

function setFieldValue(fieldName, fieldValue) {

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute(fieldName).setValue(fieldValue);

}
