Network error when using Patch function: The specified record was not found

I've never even heard of Power Apps when someone dropped a huge app on me. Now the users are reporting the error (see title of this post).

Looking at the app in the editor - the screen in question is like a bunch of other screens in the app, with an icon to save and go to the next screen. I cannot find a "patch" call anywhere, the icon just calls:

If(varLocked, Navigate(AssessmentHealth2), (Set(blnBack, false) && SubmitForm(AssessmentForm24)));

Looking at the documentation for SubmitForm (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/power-fx/reference/function-form) isn't helping me much.

How do I fix this, I don't even know where to start.

PowerApps interprets SubmitForm() as a type of patch. Good luck if you are now responsible for a big app and it's formulas haven't been documented internally.

So the problem in my case was a data card was mapped to the wrong SharePoint list. Also I did not know (at the time) how to check what it was mapped to. After picking the data card, then select "Item" from the drop down. See attached images.

Then if you are lucky, after you pick "Item" after some time the formula field will fill in. Seriously, you cannot trust what the formula field says.

I will attach two images (wrong and right), of the exact same selection, with no code changes, but the fx field is different! This is not due to any change on my part, it is due to power apps lag/bug.
