One Submit form from 2 different tables columns

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi I hope I explain myself well.

 

I am attempting to create a compliance app for fire alarm test data and emergency lighting etc.

 

Currently I have 2 tables set up in Dataverse.

1st table is an options table. For example operatives names, locations etc.

 

2nd table is the fire alarm test table.

 

The issue I am having is that I want to be able to drag data from different tables into one submittable form. I have setup the relationship between tables but I am finding tricky setting up the drop down option linking from two dataverse tables into one form.

 

Am I missing coding on the drop-down ie lookup( ???

 

Please can someone help.

    Hi @AwwGregg ,

     

    You are looking for the "Lookup" field here.   Basically if you add a Lookup field to Options table on the Alarm Test table then you will be able to add that field to your form and it will give you the ability to search for that record and select the appropriate Option value on the Fire Alarm Test table.  

     

    If this is an "N:N" relationship then this will not work above...  In that case the steps are a bit different.  Please let me know if this is what you were looking for and it is a 1:N.

    How many lookups can you create in one Table?

    Hi @ndlovusphe ,

     

    See @ChrisPiasecki reply here to that question (Solved: Davaverse lookups increased to 20? - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)). As far as I know there is no hard limit per table on number of lookup columns.
