Form Submission

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Greetings everyone,

I am fairly new to Powerapps and please bear with with me if I ask too many questions. I created a form and would like a visible message to appear that the form was submitted in good order and not allow a user to submit twice. How do I go about doing so?

Currently, this is what I have under "OnSuccess: Navigate(KPHCForm, ScreenTransition.Fade); Notify("Congratulations! Your training request was successfully submitted.", NotificationType.Success) and OnReset: ResetForm(Form1).

Unfortunately, when the form is submitted, the message is not visible enough and it allows the user to resubmit the form.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Re: Form Submission

You could create another screen and then OnSuccess navigate to the new screen and have it say your form has been successfully submitted. You could also add a button to the new screen that would allow the user to create a new item.

Re: Form Submission

@Jeff_Thorpe - thank you for the reply. I will attempt to create a new screen and have it navigate to that screen with the message. However, may I know how do I prevent the same user from resubmitting the form?

Re: Form Submission

After you navigate to a different screen they won't be able to submit the form again because they will no longer be on the form screen. Maybe I am not understanding the requirements. Is this a one time form, so when the user fills it out and submits they should never be able to submit another form even if they close the app and go back in (like a survey)?

@Jeff_Thorpe - thank you so much for your assistance. Yes, I would have liked it to function as a one time form, but I think this would work fine. Sorry for the confusion.

Re: Form Submission

Hi @Anonymous ,

About the function that you want, I suggest you add an if statement when submitting form.

Try this: (set the submit button's onselect)

If(
IsEmpty(Filter(tablename,Created By.DisplayName=User().FullName)), //justify whether current user submit form before
SubmitForm(Form1), //no, submit form
Notify("You have submitted form already!",NotificationType.Warning) //yes, notify
)

Best regards,
