Thanks.

See how below works.

xRefRecordId variable is the tracking id of the record you want to link to the cross-reference field.

xRefFielddId variable is the field id for the cross-reference field you want to set.

<script src="./shared/scripts/controls/ReferenceField.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
 var xRefRecordId = [24075];
 var xRefFielddId = 1234;

 Sys.Application.add_load(function() {
  setXrefFieldValues(xRefFielddId,xRefRecordId)
 });

 function setXrefFieldValues(field,values){
  field = $CM._fields[xRefFielddId].clientId;
  ArcherTech.UI.ReferenceField.CurrentLookupField = $find(field);
  var currentField=ArcherTech.UI.ReferenceField.CurrentLookupField;
  if(currentField) {
   currentField.setLookedUpRecords(values);
   if (currentField.get_isInDdeCondition() && Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().get_isInAsyncPostBack()) {
    var endRequestHandler = function () {
     ArcherTech.UI.ReferenceField.UpdateCurrentField(values);
     Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().remove_endRequest(values);
    };
    Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_endRequest(endRequestHandler);
   } else {
    var genericContent = ArcherTech.UI.GenericContent.GetInstance();
    if (genericContent) {
     var animationOptions = genericContent.get_loadingAnimationOptions();
     $('body').loadingAnimation({ title: "Retrieving User", text: "Please wait, setting user", image: animationOptions.image });
    }
    ArcherTech.UI.ReferenceField.UpdateCurrentField(values);
   }
  }
 }
</script>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I have set the attriburtes for my Archer

xRefRecordId variable is the tracking id of the record you want to link to the cross-reference field.

xRefFielddId variable is the field id for the cross-reference field you want to set.

It didnot work

I want to explain my need.

User select a value from value list.

According that value I want to set a value in cross reference field automaticaly.

I  thought I can use custom object.

If there is an aother way to do this I can use.

A few questions ilhan:

Did you get any errors in the browser console?

Is the cross-reference on the layout?

Is the cross-reference on a tab?

[DavidPetty]

You could use a data feed to do this as well.  Otherwise a custom object is the only other way.

[ilhankurt]

In console it says

SCRIPT5009: 'fldId' is undefined,

      Sys.Application.add_load(function() {
                   setXrefFieldValues(fldId,xRefRecordId)
       });

I changed fldId with xRefFielddId then

I got Invalid argument error.

How can I do with data feed

Could you give me an example or sth ?
