I have one dataverse table Customer where I have 3 columns: UEmail (text type), Validity (Choice: Monthly, Yearly) and StartDate (Dateonly Type)

I am using below formula for OnVisible property of one screen.

If(LookUp(Customer, UEmail = User().Email && Validity = "Monthly").StartDate < DateAdd(Today() , 30) , UpdateContext({expval:true}))

I am getting error:

Incompatible type of comparisons. These types cannot be compared. OptionSetValue and Text

Any solution to above error ?

Hi @ashokpershad ,

You need Validity.Value, but this should also help with Delegation

With( { wDate: DateAdd( Today(), 30, Days ) }, UpdateContext( { expval: LookUp( Customer, UEmail = User().Email && Validity.Value = "Monthly" ).StartDate < wDate } ) )

Thanks a lot for your reply. It does work.
I have found another very simple way to get rid of this optionsetvalue error.
While creating New Choice set values in dataverse we were asked to write "Display Name" (this is display name of choices not column) for it let say we name it "Valid".
Now while writing formula we just need to use both these

If(LookUp(Customer, UEmail = User().Email && Validity = Valid.Monthly).StartDate < DateAdd(Today() , 30) , UpdateContext({expval:true}))

It works perfectly fine.

@ashokpershad ,

I just noticed you used Dataverse - my response was more SharePoint based - back to my original point

With( { wDate: DateAdd( Today(), 30, Days ) }, UpdateContext( { expval: LookUp( Customer, UEmail = User().Email && Validity = Valid.Monthly ).StartDate < wDate } ) )
