Hi PowerApps folks!

 

I am moving a client from Sharepoint lists and Word doc forms into a Model Driven App with CDS as backend.

In these forms there a lots of sections with tables capturing data needed i.e. 

 

AssetEstimated ValueDebtLending InstitutionComments
Asset 1900000560000Bank 1blah blah
Asset 2 80000Bank 1random text
Asset 354888898000Bank 2comment 3

 

What is the best way to do this in Model Driven App forms?

Is it create an entity for the items being captured and insert a quick view form within the main form, simialr to the way capturing contacts works?

Or are there other methods that people have used that work well?

 

So create an Asset entity(Table) with the columns required and pull it into my main form?

 

Thanks!

Mark

    Hi @markikav how are you?

    @markikav I would like to advise you to first read this article about Model Driven apps Overview of building a model-driven app with Power Apps - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

     

    In your case, create a new table and after that add it on the app will achieve your needs.

     

    On the article, please, take a look on "Modeling business data" and after "Building your first model-driven app" at Build your first model-driven app from scratch with Power Apps - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

     

    Please let me know if this information helped on your question.

     

    Regards.
