power apps asset checkout + ms flow

Posted on by glewis40

I am using the asset checkout template on powerapps. I have added an approval flow to the reserve button. This is the code for that button

SubmitForm(ReserveForm);AssetFlownew.Run(ReserveForm.LastSubmit.ReservedByEmail,ReserveForm.LastSubmit.ProductId,DateTo.SelectedDate,DateFrom.SelectedDate)

This is my date picker "Dateto" DateFrom" screenshot 1

When my flow kicks off the approval e-mail shows the default date only not date selected from form. I have searched the internet for hours and can't find a fix. I thought .selected would be the selected date on the form. The section on my flow request from powerapps the information and that's where the DateTo.SelectedDate,DateFrom.SelectedDate section comes in. But again it just shows default date on the datepicker not the actual selected date.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @glewis40 ,

Do you mean that the selected date within the DatePicker control would be reset to the Default date when you pass the selected date from your app to your flow?

Based on the issue that you mentioned, I think this issue may be related to the SubmitForm(ReserveForm) formula within your app.

Actually, when the SubmitForm(ReserveForm) formula executes successfully, the ReserveForm (Edit form) would be reset, so the DateTo and DateFrom datepicker controls would be reset to default date value.

As an alternative solution, please consider modify your formula as below:

Set(DateToVar, DateTo.SelectedDate); /* <-- Store the selected date value within the two DatePicker controls into variables firstly */
Set(DateFromVar, DateFrom.SelectedDate);
SubmitForm(ReserveForm);
AssetFlownew.Run(
ReserveForm.LastSubmit.ReservedByEmail,
ReserveForm.LastSubmit.ProductId,
DateToVar,
DateFromVar
)

Please consider take a try with above solution, then check if the issue is solved.

Best regards,
