Posted on by Marktiger0205

Hi Beginner here 🙂

I have this form where I two of my columns are from an excel file and presented as dropdown menu in my app

1. Framework

2. Control no.

Where whatever I select in framework it will only show the control nos. affected since I made it a cascading dropdown, however when I try to submit the form all are saving except to these two columns. I don't know where is the error.

The only important property for saving data in a form is the Update property of the card containing a control. Check this property to make sure that the right control is referenced. For a dropdown, it should be something like Dropdown1.Selected.Value. Your dropdowns should have their own cards for the fields being saved.

@Marktiger0205 Thank you!

Framework datacard [Update] to be: Dropdown3_1.Selected.Result
For Control no, I got same example here. The detail info appears when you click your Dropdown2_1.
Now take a look at [value] being shown, please try to change [Update] property of Control no. like this:
Dropdown2_1.Selected.Control_x0020_No_x002e_
ps: you might need to input value yourself 🙂

Hope it helps your problem,
