I have a table I am using that is related to my leads.  It stores a Company name and id.

I have created a popup dialog from LeadDetails that allows entering a new company and correctly saves back to Company table.

However, I would like to capture the output of that save (a COmpany name and ID) and pass them back to Lead Details.

What is the process for doing this?  New to the object model so I cannot seem to figure out which event and where.

Thanks,

The most basic way to do this is to use Session variables.

e.g.

Session["CompanyName"] = theCompanyName;

Really?  I am surprised.  With this giant object model, I would not expect to resort to a Session variable.

Also not sure that would do it tho in this case.  

I just want to have the company name and Id after the dialog action insert completes and put it back to my Insert form for Leads.

Since the Lead insert page is not going to reload, the Session var would not be refreshed.  Unless I am missing something?

Thank you Raul!

As long as the code is server side, then it would work.

When a dialog closes, the page does refresh, so the Session variable does work.

Now, if the Created Entity is linked via a Relationship, you could in theory reach it that way...

E.g.

MyEntity.ExtensionEntity.Field  // for a One to One relationship

or

foreach (MyExtensionEntity extension in MyEntity.Extensions)   //for One to Many relationship

{}

Raul,

This is a One to Many relationship with a single entry in CompanyMaster possibly having multiple Leads.

Neither table has "Is Extension" set so they probably are not available.

So from my Leads form, I currently pop up the Company Master form and add a row to Company Master.

After insert to CompanyMaster, can get the value of the newly inserted CompanyMaster via the return of a Business Rule?

Sorry if these questions are really fumb.  This object model is a bit daunting.

Thanks,

W
