Show/Hide Field based on combo box selection

Posted on by autumn

Hello, I can't seem to get this to function and could use some guidance. We have a field called "Invoice Delivery Method" (DataCardValue45) with two choices - Print and Manual E-Bill.

If Manual E-Bill is selected, we would like the E-Bill Email Address text field to be both visible and required. Seems simple enough, and all of the answers I find point to the same formula, but it's not working. I have tried this formula on both the Visible and the Required property of the E-Bill Email Address Data Card, but I keep getting an error.

If(DataCardValue45.Selected.Value="Manual E-Bill",true,false)

The error just indicates the field types don't match, which I already know. They shouldn't have to, right? Where am I going wrong?

Hi @autumn

What is the Items property of DataCardValue45? Is it the Choice field in Shapepoint?

If it's a choice field then
DataCardValue45.Selected.Value="Manual E-Bill"

It is Choices('Invoice Delivery Method') from Dataverse.

I receive the same error when using your code on the E-Bill Email Address control.

Hi @autumn

All these works for me. Can you try these

First(DataCardValue45.SelectedItems).Value="Manual E-Bill" OR DataCardValue45.Selected.Value="Manual E-Bill" OR Text(DataCardValue45.Selected.Value) = "Manual E-Bill"
