Issue with Concatenating Choice Column Label Instead of Value in Power Apps

Posted on by 6

Hi everyone,

I have a formula in Power Apps where I'm trying to concatenate a registration number with the year from a Choice column:
 
Concatenate('Registration Number', "-", Year)

The Year column is a Choice data type, and when I use this formula, it concatenates the numeric value of the year instead of the label (e.g., it adds 1 instead of "2024").

How can I modify the formula to use the label (display text) of the Year choice column instead of the internal numeric value?

    Hi priya_,
     
    Do you have this Label in a gallery? If yes, can you try using the below and see if it solves your issue?
    Concatenate(ThisItem.'Registration Number', "-", First(ThisItem.Year).Value)
    Hope this helps. 
     
    Kind regards, 
    Nandit
