    Hi @Awad0367,

    If you want to populate the LevOrgNr with organization number from leverantor based on leverantornamn Combo Box selected, you should define the one-to-one correspondence between the two columns, for example, if the leverantor is ALINGSAS BILDELAR, the organization number should be 1001, just as below:

    vqiaqimsft_0-1656558252773.png

    So please input the corresponding organization number within the leverantor list, then you could populate the the LevOrgNr name(If it is a text column type) by setting a default property of the textinput control as below:

    LookUp(Leverantor,Leverantor=ComboBox.Selected.Value).Organizationname

    Thank you for your help, I did figure it out exact as you did but column name worked with Title instead for Leverantor. 

    I have an issue with my invoice number variable that generate a number when a new invoice button at start is pressed. I need this number to decrement IF the new form is not submitted so that I do not consume that numeber in vain. Here is the variable 


    Set(
    varRkv;
    First(
    Filter(
    'Rekvisition nummer';
    ID =1
    )
    ).Title
    );;
    UpdateIf(
    'Rekvisition nummer';
    ID = 1;
    {
    Title: Concatenate(
    "RikvNo-";
    Text(
    Right(
    varRkv;
    5
    ) + 1
    )
    )
    }
    )

    Se the image where the new number is generated
