Hi,

I’m currently facing an issue with patching the “Person or group” type column to a SharePoint list. The code seems to be correct, but the patching isn’t working for this column. Here is my code:

If(
    varFormMode = FormMode.Edit,
    SubmitForm(Form1)
);
If(
    varFormMode = FormMode.New,
    Patch(
        DMAT,
        Defaults(DMAT),
        {
            Custodians: {
                Claims: Concatenate(
                    "i:0#.f|membership|",
                    DataCardValue28.Selected.Mail
                ),
                Department: "",
                DisplayName: DataCardValue28.Selected.DisplayName,
                Email: DataCardValue28.Selected.Mail,
                JobTitle: "",
                Picture: ""
            },
            MWC: {
                Claims: Concatenate(
                    "i:0#.f|membership|",
                    DataCardValue82.Selected.Mail
                ),
                Department: "",
                DisplayName: DataCardValue82.Selected.DisplayName,
                Email: DataCardValue82.Selected.Mail,
                JobTitle: "",
                Picture: ""
            },
            Plant: DataCardValue41.Selected,
            'Item Description': DataCardValue30.Value,
            Brand: DataCardValue20.Value,
            Model: DataCardValue21.Value,
            Healthiness: DataCardValue29.Selected,
            'Serial number': DataCardValue42.Value,
            'Asset Type': DataCardValue32.Selected,
            Category: DataCardValue36.Selected,
            'Equipment Condition': DataCardValue37.Selected,
            'Equipment Status': DataCardValue38.Selected,
            'Assets Owner': DataCardValue85.Selected,
            'Frequency of Calibration': DataCardValue39.Selected,
            'Tolerance or Accuracy': DataCardValue70.Value,
            NFCTag: DataCardValue40.Value,
            'Device Photo': Image2.Image,
            'Purchase date': DataCardValue26.SelectedDate,
            'Calibration Expiry Date': DataCardValue35.SelectedDate,
            'Asset Number': Value(DataCardValue31.Value),
            'Value RM': Value(DataCardValue27.Value),
            'Test Equipment': DataCardValue43.Checked
        }
    );
    Patch(
        DMAT,
        LookUp(
            DMAT,
            ID = Value(DataCardValue88.Value)
        ),
        {}
    ),Form1.Updates
);
If(
    Form1.Error,
    Notify(
        "There was an error saving the data.",
        NotificationType.Error
    ),
    Navigate(
        Scr_ToolsAssets,
        ScreenTransition.None
    )
)

I appreciate your help.

I assume that both are single selection Person fields ? If so (using whichever one is not working), put this on a Label and see if the expected values are visible
"Name: - " & DataCardValue28.Selected.DisplayName & "Email: - " & DataCardValue28.Selected.Mail

I am also assuming that the Items of both Combo Boxes are based on Office365Users.SearchUser or the V2 version.

Hi @Khairul_Amri

Firstly try adding this
If( varFormMode = FormMode.Edit, SubmitForm(Form1) varFormMode = FormMode.New, Patch( DMAT, Defaults(DMAT), { Custodians: { Claims: "i:0#.f|membership|" & Lower(DataCardValue28.Selected.Mail), Department: "", DisplayName: DataCardValue28.Selected.DisplayName, Email: DataCardValue28.Selected.Mail, JobTitle: "", Picture: "" }, MWC: { Claims: "i:0#.f|membership|" & Lower(DataCardValue82.Selected.Mail), Department: "", DisplayName: DataCardValue82.Selected.DisplayName, Email: DataCardValue82.Selected.Mail, JobTitle: "", Picture: "" }, Plant: DataCardValue41.Selected, 'Item Description': DataCardValue30.Value, Brand: DataCardValue20.Value, Model: DataCardValue21.Value, Healthiness: DataCardValue29.Selected, 'Serial number': DataCardValue42.Value, 'Asset Type': DataCardValue32.Selected, Category: DataCardValue36.Selected, 'Equipment Condition': DataCardValue37.Selected, 'Equipment Status': DataCardValue38.Selected, 'Assets Owner': DataCardValue85.Selected, 'Frequency of Calibration': DataCardValue39.Selected, 'Tolerance or Accuracy': DataCardValue70.Value, NFCTag: DataCardValue40.Value, 'Device Photo': Image2.Image, 'Purchase date': DataCardValue26.SelectedDate, 'Calibration Expiry Date': DataCardValue35.SelectedDate, 'Asset Number': Value(DataCardValue31.Value), 'Value RM': Value(DataCardValue27.Value), 'Test Equipment': DataCardValue43.Checked } ); Patch( DMAT, LookUp( DMAT, ID = Value(DataCardValue88.Value) ), Form1.Updates ) ); If( Form1.Error, Notify( "There was an error saving the data.", NotificationType.Error ), Navigate( Scr_ToolsAssets, ScreenTransition.None ) )

Have you ruled out the usual suspects already?
Is the people picker column of type single or multi select?
