Using an IF statement with a multi-select field in an OnChange Script

SOLVED
Posted By

Hi Everybody,

I hope someone can help me understand how to use an IF statement with a Multi-Select field in an OnChange script.

This basic IF statement can determine whether Blue has been selected in a Text or Selection field.

if (oppo_color.value == 'Blue')

However, it doesn't work with a Multi-Select field, which is what I really need.

Is there something I can do to make that work?

Thanks very much in advance!

Kevin

    The value of the field is an array (as multiple options can be selected). Sticking with the example of oppo_color, if we want to see if 'Blue' is included in the selected options then this will do it:

    if(crm.fields('oppo_color').val().includes('Blue')) {

   //do whatever..

}

    If we're only interested when 'Blue' has been selected exclusively then this will work:

    var v = crm.fields('oppo_color').val();
if(v.length === 1 && v.includes('Blue')){

}
