Hi
I'm having trouble getting it to work.
Maybe it's because I can not follow some instructions when mine runs in Danish

I hope you can help me

Looking forward to hearing from you 🙂

    Hi @Anonymous :

    Firstly,let me explain why you encounted this problem.

    Some areas use "," as a list separator, but some use ";".

    In the formula you provided, both ";" and "," are used as the list separator, which will inevitably lead to errors.In the picture below, the symbols I marked with a red paintbrush and those marked with a green paintbrush belong to different regions.

    The correct formula must be one of the following two codes, please try:

    Case1:Some areas use ";;" as a separator

     

    Select(Parent);;
    Patch(
     Bestilling;
     LookUp(Bestilling;ID=ThisItem.Id);
     {
     ‘Navn (Title)’:TextNavn.Text;
     'CVR nr':TextCVR.Text;
     Adress:TextAdress.Text
     }
    );;
    Set(ItemId;0);;

     

    Case2:Some areas use ";" as a separator

     

    Select(Parent);
    Patch(
     Bestilling,
     LookUp(Bestilling,ID=ThisItem.Id),
     {
     ‘Navn (Title)’:TextNavn.Text,
     'CVR nr':TextCVR.Text,
     Adress:TextAdress.Text
     }
    );
    Set(ItemId,0);

     

    I think this link will help you a lot:

    Formula separators and chaining operator

    Hallo again 🙂

    It works now!
    I do not quite understand why "LookUp" should be used?
    Can you explain it? 

    and again thanks for the help.

    Hi @Anonymous :

    LookUp(Bestilling;ID=ThisItem.Id) is used to find the record that needs to be updated in Bestilling.

    Hi @Anonymous :

    The formula looks fine.Are there any errors?

    In addition, I suggest you to check whether lookup(xx,xxx) can find the corresponding record.

    @v-bofeng-msft 
    Hello again, I have tried with the other fields.
    I do not quite understand it with (xx, xxx).
    I get no fault of the others
     

    I have choice type in the liste, change it somewhat on whether it can update.

    Hi @Anonymous :

    No error indicates that the formula is not problematic, so we must consider the logic of the formula.

    Now the target record you want to update is ‘LookUp(Bestilling;ID=ThisItem.Id)’. I suspect that this record does not exist in Bestilling.

    Hi @Anonymous :

    You can try using this formula to update the first record in Bestilling.

    If it succeeds, then my reasoning is correct.This means that you cannot use ID as a match.

     

    Select(Parent);
    Patch(
     Bestilling,
     First(Bestilling),
     {
     ‘Navn (Title)’:TextNavn.Text,
     'CVR nr':TextCVR.Text,
     Adress:TextAdress.Text
     }
    );
    Set(ItemId,0);

     

    Best Regards,
