Hello Power Apps Community!

We are about to launch the new time reporting app I've created (thanks to the help from everyone here), and I've noticed that after the user hit's the 'Submit Button' and returns to the 'Time Entry' screen that the values are still visible in the Gallery. This did not happen when I was testing, but I believe that's because I have admin rights?

Here is the 'Items' function for the Gallery:

FirstN('LIST NAME',20)

Here is the code for the 'Submit Button':

Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2(
EmployeeEmail_3.Text, "Time Entry Submited - " &WeekEnding_4.Text, HtmlText1_1.HtmlText
)
;
ForAll(
Gallery1_3.AllItems,
If(
!IsBlank(ComboBox1.Selected.Result),
Patch(
'LIST NAME',
Defaults('LIST NAME'),
{
WeekEnding: DateValue(WeekEnding_4.Text),
HoursWorked: Value(TimeWorked_4.Text),
WeekNotes: Notes1_4.Text,
Client: ComboBox1.Selected.Result,
JobNumber: Dropdown2.SelectedText.Value,
Employee: EmployeeName_3.Text,
Rate: Dropdown1.SelectedText.Value
}
)
)
);
Navigate(Confirmation,
None)

Hi @gengeset ,

If what you are looking for is just change the visibility of the gallery after the data is patched, please do the following:
On the Visible property of the gallery put the following:

galVisible<>1

Then at the very end of your formula on the submit button, put the following:

Set(galVisible,1)

Please note that if you refresh the page where the gallery is located, the gallery will be visible again. However, if you want to hide and show the gallery based on some other criteria like whether the user already submitted an item and it should not be visible anymore, that needs a little more than just changing visibility on submitting. I am also assuming "LIST NAME" is some list on SharePoint or somewhere. If it is a collection populated by user input, all you have to do is clear the collection after patching it to the datasource.

Hope that may help.
