Combo Box Cascade With Multiple Select

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to cascade combo box with multiple selected options. One has country and second has city.

For example, for countries I choose USA & Australia, then second combo box should show cities like Chicago, New York, Sydney, Melbourne

Right now for the items property of 2nd combo box I have - "Distinct(Filter('Data List', Country = DataCardValue7.Selected.Result),City)"

This is only showing the results based on the country that was last selected and not both the countries.

Urgent help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Shreyans

Try this, but note that is not Delegable

@WarrenBelz Sure will do.

Also, I am facing one more issue. I am not able to see the selected value in edit or view mode.

DefaultSelectedItems Property = "[Parent.Default]

Can you please help me out with this too.

The DefaultSelectedItems of your Combo Box (as per your PM) will depend on what type of field you are writing back to in SharePoint (assume the field is called City)

If a Text Field

{Result:ThisItem.City}

If a Choice field

{Result:ThisItem.City.Value}

@Anonymous ,

First thing to check - to be displayed in DefaultSelectedItems, the value stored in your data field must be in the schema (available choices) of the combo box. If not, it will simply not display (you will not get any errors).

@WarrenBelz

I changed the columns in sharepoint list from choices to text field. I applied {Result: ThisItem.Country} and {Result: ThisItem.City}

However, for the country I am getting the right value back. For City I am getting this ("). Could you please give me some suggestion on solving it?

@Anonymous ,

That is very basic code that should simply display the content of the field in the record selected. Have you checked the content of the City field in the record you are displaying?
