Hello All,

I have an issue maybe someone can help me. I read and watched videos but cannot seem to understand why or find a fix. I noticed on an "Edit Form" connected to a SharePoint list, I selected a column named "Date". When I submit the form, the date comes back with all items in one section but right below this section, I get another section with just the date.

On the button, I added "SubmitForm(formname)" outside a patch function. If I place this property before the Patch, it shows on the SharePoint on top of the list, and if I place the property under the patch, it shows it under. Here are some illustration for a visual.

Hi @I_Think_I_Can ,

What do you mean by "SubmitForm(formname)" outside a patch function"? If you have Patch and SubmitForm for the same data source, definitely data would be updated in data source twice.

Best regards,

I noticed if I remove the submit form from the onselect in the button, the button will submit.
Where do you recommend I place the Submit form? Also, if you do not mind me asking, when submitting how do I clear some checkboxes?
Thanks

Hi @I_Think_I_Can ,

If you have a Patch for submitting, SubmitForm is not needed any more, and vice versa.

For your question, if it's the Form in Edit or View mode where displays the most recent submitted record, check boxes should not be cleared. If it's New form, they shouldn't be checked. Please explain your scenario so that I can understand it more clearly.

I guess what I like to do is when the fields in the form are filled out, and user press "Done" (button), all items clear. I was able to get the fields to clear, but not the checkboxes

I cannot see where I may have the submit form duplicate. let me look around

Thanks for your help, means alot!
