Posted on by Mahesh_0786

Hi, I am new to Power Apps. I have created a SharePoint list and created an app from it. In my app there is a field Status.In Edit Screen, Under status data card I added Two buttons i.e., Approve & Reject. On clicking respective buttons Status value in Browse screen should change to Approved and rejected Respectively. I am using UpdateContext({Status:"Approved"}) and UpdateContext({Status:"Rejected"}) for that. But they are not working. Please help me. Browse details.png Screenshot (222).png

The formula is ok. However change the Text of the button to;

If(status="Approved","Approved","Approve")

The other button should be;

If(status="Rejected","Rejected","Reject")

Do you want the description on the Button or the Datasource.

If you want the details to show that, save the Editform and it will reflect in the details screen.

You should have a Button on your screen which is also outside the form.

Onselect of the inserted button put:

SubmitForm(Editform1)

So delete those buttons inside the form

I want to insert the text I am entering on "OnSelect" Property. Two buttons are there Approve & Reject in status data card, when I click on Approve, Status Should change to Approved in enitre app. Same way When I click on reject status should change to Rejected. This Approved And Rejected, Can I enter in OnSelect Property like UpdateContext({Status:"Approved"}) and UpdateContext({Status:"Rejected"}) . By doing like this status value is not updating. Do I have to patch function otherwise? If so, How to use it?

Since you are using a form, the best approach is the submitform. Can you show a screenshot of the formula on the button. The button should be outside the form not in a datacard as I said earlier.

Also When you say it didn't work do you mean the data was not sent to the Datasource?

Yes,In the data source the status value is not updating. The value is not being sent to the data source.

It not working because you are not following. I never asked you to combine the update context with the submitform. Remove the update context formula.

Also all my previous reply states that Insert a separate button on the screen not inside the Datacard.

Remove those buttons you have inserted into the the Datacards
