We have some JS that does some mathematical functions on an entity form onload/onsave. We had to do it via JS because the field does calculations based on other calculated fields, so the option to use a calculated field was not available to us. It also does some if/else that I could not find a way to execute with calculated fields anyway.
Problem is, we need to apply it to every form. Expecting anyone to manually open/save thousands of records is obviously not realistic.
I think that in a case like this, a plugin would be the right solution but I am not a coder and don't have a clue where to start on a plugin. So I have to try and find a solution with the tools and skills I do have.
That said, I'd looked at workflows and do not see anything that would open a record (so that the JS could execute client-side), then save the record, en-masse.
Am I missing anything that might do this for me OOB, or would a plug-in be my only option?
Thank you
