Restrict two choices from dropdown menu

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I would like to restrict the choices from a drop down menu to 3 choices.

Currently I have 5 choices:

  1. In Progress
  2. Pending
  3. Finished
  4. Approved (it's not to appear)
  5. In Revision (it's not to appear)

Does anyone know how to do this?

I have tried: Filter(Choices(MyDataSource.Status),Value="In Progress" and "Pending" and "Finished") and sooo many ways 

but it doesn't work I'M FREAKING OUT

 

Thanks

    Hey It would be useful to understand the datasource as that can play a factor in this sometimes but firstly I can see a slight issue with the logic try this:

     Filter(Choices(MyDataSource.Status),Or(Value="In Progress", Value= "Pending", Value= "Finished"))

    I have done the above with the assumption a Microsoft List/Sharepoint List is your source.
    This needs to be an Or and not an And
