Hi,

Here are the steps to add new Tab, Group and Buttons to the ‘Contact’ form and call .jscript functions on button click.

Ribbon Customizations - Contact Form

Steps :-

• Create a new .jscript file “contact.js” with below functions

function fnA() {

alert(“Button \”A\” clicked!!!”);

}

function fnB() {

alert(“Button \”B\” clicked!!!”);

}

• Open CRM application and add the “contact.js” as web resource
• Create a new unmanaged solution and add “Contact” entity and “contact.js” web resource
• Export the solution to the local folder
• Unzip the folder
• Open “customizations.xml” in Visual studio
• Navigate to “<Entities><Entity>Contact”
• Go to  <RibbonDiffXml> node and replace with below XML
