DataCard Display Content Wrong

Hi,

Hopefully someone can help.

I have a Form where one of the DataCards is displaying the wrong content, the status within my gallery is showing correct and my View and Edit buttons have OnSelect as "Set(VarRecord, ThisItem); ResetForm('Main Form');ViewForm('Main Form');Navigate('Form Screen')"

In the Form the result of the formula appears to be correct.

The image below shows the form in view mode and the output of VarRecord.Status is 'In Progress' and displays in the form correctly, as this is the last record that had been modified.

Status - Correct.png

However when I view another record, the output of VarRecord.Status is Complete, yet In Progress is being displayed in the Form.

Status - Wrong.png

Thanks in advance for any ideas on getting this working correctly.

Craig

@Craig_Cowley I think varRecord still holds the old value, can you reset the variable and load it once again.

@Bilakanti I was amending the formula in the 'Items' property box and should have been in the 'DefaultSelectedItems' property box. I found this by removing the formula in the 'Items' property and I still had a value in the datacard

Thanks

Hi @Bilakanti

I seem to fix one thing and something else breaks!

I found that the 'DefaultSelectedItems' property was the problem. By changing the formula from:

If(IsBlank(Var),Parent.Default,Var)

to

If(IsBlank(Var),Parent.Default,VarRecord.Status)

It works correctly, however this now breaks my update buttons which change the status to either Complete or Cancelled.

These buttons update the status using:

Set(Var,LookUp(Choices([@'Origination Work Requests'].Status),Value="Complete"))

I've tried changing the VarRecord to ThisItem.Status

Any thoughts please?

Thanks

@Bilakanti my buttons to update the status, no longer update the status (in the Teams list as well) if I change the formula to get the Status datacard to view correctly!

@Bilakanti I've hidden the troublesome datacard and added text box with the correct value.

probably not the correct method, but it's now giving me the right result!

Thanks
