Hi,
I'm writing a button on a Case page that
1. gets some values from the local Case:
2. Puts them into an Apex call to create a different object.
3. should write some stuff back into the local case, so
I'm writing a button on a Case page that
1. gets some values from the local Case:
var name = "{!Case.Subject}";
2. Puts them into an Apex call to create a different object.
3. should write some stuff back into the local case, so
{!Case.Project__c} = project;
...which does not work.
So what is the way to set the local record's fields in Javascript?
Thanks!
Cheers,

You need to use the AJAX Toolkit. Set the detail button to execute a bit of javascript on click.
{!requireScript("/soap/ajax/26.0/connection.js")} var account = new sforce.SObject("Account"); account.id = //set Record Id here, potentially get it from the URL ?id= param account.field__c = value; sforce.connection.update([account]); window.location.reload(); //to reload the window and show the updated valuesReference : http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/ajax/index.htmRefer this link (http://www.jitendrazaa.com/blog/salesforce/create-and-update-records-using-javascript-button-in-salesforce-ajax-toolkit/)
So, in summary its either the AJAX Toolkit or Apex, nothing else is possible.
Hope this helps !!
