Single Choice Column Update Not Displaying in SPO List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 57

I have a SPO List that includes a Single Choice column called "WO Status". When I first created the custom Create/Edit/View forms in PowerApps, I was able to make changes to this column, no problem. More recently, when I and other users go to update the WO Status for a specific record, the newly selected choice does not appear in the WO Status column after saving nor in the View Form (opens up after double-clicking the record in the list).

 

Oddly enough, the "Modified" column does update to reflect that the record was changed recently, but the change to the WO Status column never displays in the SPO list or View Form.

 

Originally, the column allowed multiple choices, but that didn't work for our purposes, so I changed it to single choice. I have confirmed that "allow multiple selections" is set to "no" in SPO, and that the DataCardValue SelectMultiple field is set to "false" in the Create, Edit, and View forms. Entering values manually is also turned off in SPO.

 

For the DataCard

Default = ThisItem.'WO Status'

DisplayMode = Parent.DisplayMode

Update = DataCardValue.Selected

 

For the DataCardValue

Default = blank on the Create Form and ThisItem.'WO Status' on the Edit and View Forms

DefaultSelectedItems = Parent.Default

 

SharePointIntegration

OnEdit = Set(SharePointFormMode, "EditForm"); EditForm(CreateItemForm); Navigate(EditScreen, ScreenTransition.None)

OnSave = If(SharePointFormMode="CreateForm", SubmitForm(CreateItemForm), If(SharePointFormMode="EditForm", SubmitForm(EditItemForm)))

 

Does anybody know why the changes to this column are not saving, or if they are saving, why the changes are not showing up in the SPO list or View Form?

    If you have changed the column from multi to single selection, then you will need to remove the field from your form, refresh your datasource in the designer and add the field back in.

    Forms have a tendency to "retain" their original configurations for fields.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    I did exactly as you suggested and it's working again. Thank you so much!
