Limit options in combo box to active items.

Posted on by 9

I have two SPO lists.

  1. "Programs".  This list has "Program Name" and "Item Status" columns.  "Item Status" is either "Active" or "Inactive"
  2. "Invoices".  This list has columns for typical invoice data.  It also contains a look-up column for "Program Name" from the "Programs" list.

I am customizing the form using Power Apps.  My goal is when users create new invoices, they will use the combo box control to choose from a list of only "Active" program names.

 

The default function for the combo box is:

Choices([@'Programs'].Program_x0020_Name)

I might be able to use the Filter function but I can't figure out how to write it.

 

Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Hello @geissler 

     

    You can try replacing it with 

     

    Filter(Programs,'Item Status' = "Active")

     

    Just in case Program Name is not display, follow this after clicking your combo box.
