On resetting a form, am I able to set the data fields in Dataverse to blank at the same time?

Hi all 

 

I am still trying to resolve my last post. 

 

I'm thinking that if I can set the data fields in Dataverse to blank upon resetting the form then I might be able to resolve it. Is this possible? Some of them are text, numeric and choice columns. I'm thinking that if I can set them to null/blank then I'll be able to reset the form and submit it again the with values I want to use. 

 

Thank you!

    Hello @Usernametwice23,

     

    Yes you can

    Add a Reset button  on top of the Form using Ribbon Workbench and trigger an Setvalue option to make the values NULL.

     

    Eg

    function setValuesToNull(executioncontext)

    {

    var formcontext = executioncontext;

    formcontext.getArribute(filedLogicalName).setValue(null)

    // ADD OTHER FIELDS TOO

    }

    Hi @Usernametwice23 ,

     

    This is a Canvas Power App in looking at you last post correct?   Have you tried something similar to the following?

     

    SubmitForm(Form1);
    Set(
    selectedRecord,
    Blank()
    );
    ResetForm(Form1);

     

    Hope this helps.  Please accept if answers your question or Like if helps in any way.


    Thanks,


    Drew

    Hi @Usernametwice23 ,

     

    Could you please explain your scenario a bit more? Would you like to reset the form then enter and save the form as a new record or just edit the record that just submitted into Dataverse?

     

    If you would like to reset the form and save the form as a new record, then:

    Reset button - OnSelect - NewForm(Myform)

    Form - OnReset - false

     

    If you would like to edit the record that just submitted into Dataverse, then:

    Reset button - OnSelect - EditForm(Myform)

    Form - OnReset - false

     

    If you would like to edit the record that just submitted into Dataverse but need to leave all the fields blank in the form, then:

    Save button - Onselect - SubmitFrom(Myform)

    Reset button - Onselect - EditForm(Myform)

    Form - OnReset - false

    Form - OnSuccess - Notify("success ...",NotificationType.Success);Set(varSubmit, true)

    Gallery controls - OnSelect - Select(Parent);Set(varSubmit, false);EditForm(Myform)

    All Form fields - DataCardValues - Default/DefaultSelectedItems - If(varSubmit, Parent.Default, Blank())

     

    The point is:

    1\ When EditForm the form would have values in the fields coming from the Item property of the Form

    2\ When ResetForm you will only reset the form to the default mode, values would still be included in the fields if it is in Edit mode.

    3\ NewForm would make all the fields blank but when submitting the form you will create a new record

    4\ If you would like to make all the fields blank when in Edit mode, you will need to manually set Blank() in all the fields as the process above.

     

    Hope this helps.
