ReportI have a very long InfoPath Form that uses repeating tables throughout from SP 2010 that I’d like to recreate with PowerApps and connect to a SharePoint Online list. However, I’m having a difficult time figuring out the structure.
FORM:
The form has 15 sections. A different person will edit each section. Users will be completing this over time, not all at once.
Each section of the form has the following:
- Does this apply? (y/n)
- If yes, add a 2 repeating tables with each with a variable number of rows consisting of a text and hyperlink fields (using popup form)
- Notes field (text)
- Exception field (text)
- Assigned To (person)
- Review Completed (checkbox)
- Some sections can have additional fields of information.
I’m thinking an approach could be one screen for each section of the form. Each screen would have one form and 2 Galleries (using Galleries to replace the repeating tables). Users can navigate the form with Tabs. I’m not sure if this approach will work and I'm looking for some guidance. I cannot figure out:
- Submitting to SharePoint: Each screen would have 1 form and 2 Galleries to connect back into my SharePoint List. I have tried saving the repeating table info in a new SP list but I still cannot figure out how to get it back into my main list. Also, how would I also populate these galleries when a user returns to that screen on the form?
- Using a Tabbed navigation: Create a variable so that users can tab thru the form and save as they go. Reference article
- I have created this tabbed navigation as a Component. How can I set each tab so that no matter what other screen you are coming from, it always saves to the current active item. Is this possible to do with Components?
- Highlight a tab so that you know which screen is active
