There is an article on Magnetism about how to use Alert.js 3.0 to mimic an opportunity close dialog. This is an example of how to use the open-source Alert.js 2.0 to mimic the opportunity close function. Alert.js 3.0 is $1200 and I definitely recommend it if you have the budget, but if not, you can still use 2.0 to do achieve similar functionality

So without further chit chat, here is what you do.

1. Download and install Alert.js 2.1 on your CRM instance.
2. Put the Opportunity entity in a solution without any sub-components.
3. Create a JavaScript web resource and call it OpportunityClose.js or whatever you want to call it.
4. Put the code listed below in the OpportunityClose.js
5. Download and open Ribbon Workbench in XrmToolBox or your CRM instance.
6. Add a button as seen in Image 1.
7. Add a command as seen in Image 2.
8. Create an Enable Rule and add it to the command as seen in Image 3.

// Called from ribbon button, passing through first primary record ID
function showCloseAsWon(firstPrimaryItemId, primaryControl) {  
var context = primaryControl.context;
var pid = firstPrimaryItemId.replace( /[{}]/g, '' );

var title = "Close Opportunity";
