RemoveIf and UpdateIf not working with CDS LookUp field and variable

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 253

I have seen a few posts about this but nothing answers it properly.

 

I am trying to do a RemoveIf (and have previously tried UpdateIf) by using a variable as the right hand side of the code. I don't get any errors but it just doesn't remove anything from the source.

 

Has anybody managed to get this working?

    Hi @sammybridge ,

     

    Your formula doesn't make sense. Please modify as below:

    RemoveIf('NPI Profit and Losses', GUIDField in Filter('NPI Profit and Losses',ID.IDNew=NPlidvar).GUIDField)

    Hope this helps.

    Hi @v-siky-msft 

     

    Thanks for getting back to me. What do you mean when you say GUIDField?

     

    Thanks

    Hi @sammybridge ,

     

    GUIDField is a Field with Unique Identifier, which is unique index of the record generally. It is a default system field and can avoid errors caused by the same value.

    For example: Account is the GUID field in Account Entity
