Bug: Combo box not saving cleared value

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 17

I have an edit form connected to a SharePoint list with both single select choice and managed metadata fields. If the fields already have values, i can't remove the values. The controls will clear out the values, but after saving the old values are still in the fields.

I can reproduce it on edit form cards that haven't been customized.

    Hi @stick97 ,

     

    Could you please share more details of your metadata fields and the controls' formula expression in your Edit Form?

    I test on my side, and it saves OK.The test as following.

    Data Source: Test(Metadata type)

    App test:

    Form1.Data Source:'20190418Metadata'

    Form1.Items:Gallery1.Selected

    20190424MetaDataTest2.PNG

     

    Result Check:

    Hope this could be helpful.

     

    Best Regards.

    It doesn't look like you saved after deleting the value from the 'Test' field. You deleted the value, set a different value, then saved. Can you try deleting the value, then saving?

     

    EditForm1.DataSource: Testing

    EditForm1.Item: BrowseGallery1.Selected

    Fields:

    I'm also not seeing the value updated in SharePoint.

    Also, in case you're wondering, the code for the save button on the edit screen is SubmitForm(EditForm1).

    @v-yuxima-msftI just found out this seems to be happening with Text Input fields, as well. At least those with the format set to number.
