Linked Dropdowns and Distinct Function

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

I have 2 dropdowns, namely ddCompany and ddProperty.

 

ddProperty, shows all properties for the company selected is ddCompany.

 

However, when I successfully add the distinct function to ddCompany, the formula within ddPropery no longer works.

 

Formulas before distinct
ddCompany - SortByColumns('Property Information',"ClaimantCompany")

ddProperty - Filter('Property Information',ddCompany.Selected.'Claimant Company'='Claimant Company').'Property Name'

 

ddCompany formula with Distinct

Distinct(SortByColumns('Property Information',"ClaimantCompany"),'Claimant Company')

 

Please can someone advise a way to make the ddCompany dropdown only show unique values without affecting the ddProperty dropdown.

 

Thanks

    Hi @SG1990 ,

    See if this approach works - ddCompany

    Sort(
     Distinct(
     'Property Information',
     ClaimantCompany
     ),
     Result
    )

     ddProperty

    Filter(
     'Property Information',
     ddCompany.Selected.Result = 'Claimant Company'
    ).'Claimant Company'
