Power apps not saving dates

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by alhud198

in my project I have a date and time calendar that is to let users be able to input their dates by clicking the edit button.

However once the user chooses a date and clicks the checkmark it simply goes back to the default dates that are on there.

what is needed to be changed or added so the dates can be saved?

Hello @alhud198 ,

Just to be sure, when user is on edit mode and selecting the date, are they clicking on Ok within the calendar?

Hope this helps clarify the doubt, let me know in case you're still facing an issue within it.

Hello @alhud198 ,

Another QQ, have you checked the value on the data source, does it get updated after the submit or how it appears?

Hello @alhud198,

Can you test by changing the update property to the datacardvalue assigned to the date with a DatacardValue.SelectedDate

For example, in this case for the Travel start date the update would be DatacardValue12.SelectedDate.
In your case would be:
UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: DatacardValue.SelectedDate, editMode: true })

Hope this helps clarify the doubt, let me know in case you're still facing an issue within it.

So for my tour start date to be saved I just need to

UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: DatacardValue.tourstartdate, editMode: true })

Hello @alhud198 ,

Please, expand the card by clicking on the right arrow. There you'll be able to visualize the datacard. You need to include on the update property of Tour Start Date_DataCard1 --> UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: "Nameofdatacardvalue".tourstartdate, editMode: true })

For example, on the scenario shared before it will be --> UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: DataCardValue12.SelectedDate, editMode: true })

UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: RecordsGallery1.Selected, editMode: true })

so the thing that would need to be added to this would be something like so?
UpdateContext({ selectedRecord: RecordsGallery1.Selected, datevalue1, editMode: true })
