DateTime Controller Value Is Not Changing When The Toggle Value is True

Posted on by ChiranJay

Hi All,

I have SharePoint List which has a form that customized using PowerApps.

In this form I have:

1. Date and Time controller - Email Draft Needed By (Date and time format - Date & Time)

2. Toggle - Same Day Due - Yes/No

Properties

Email Draft Neede By Card Name > Email Draft Needed By_DataCard1

Controller Name > dtpEmailDraftNeededBy

dtpEmailDraftNeededBy > DefaultDate

Same Day Due Card Name > Same Day Due_DataCard1

Controller Name > tglSameDayDue

I want to add few hours to the DefaultDate property of the Email Draft Needed By when the Same Day Due toggle is 'YES'.

I used the below formula

If(IsBlank(Parent.Default)&&tglSameDayDue.Value=false,Today()+1,If(IsBlank(Parent.Default)&&tglSameDayDue.Value=true,Text(DateAdd(Now(), 4, Hours),"dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm"),Parent.Default))

The issue is that this formula didn't add hours to Now().

Can someone please let me know what I have done wrong?

Thanks.

Hi @chiranjay ,

Is Parent.Default a Date ? If so you need

With( { wDay: DateAdd(Today(),1,Days), wHour: DateAdd(Now(),4,Hours) }, Coalesce( Parent.Default, (!tglSameDayDue.Value && wDay) || wHour ) )

Apologies for the late reply.

Unfortunately your solution didn't work @WarrenBelz

Could you please let me know what's wrong with the below function()

If(IsBlank(Parent.Default)&&tglSameDayDue.Value=false,Today()+1,If(IsBlank(Parent.Default)&&tglSameDayDue.Value=true,Text(DateAdd(Now(), 4, Hours),"dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm"),Parent.Default))

I have applied this function to the DefaultDate property of the Email Draft Needed By(DateTime Picker) when the Same Day Due toggle is 'YES'.

This Email Draft Needed By DateTime Picker is configured to show the dates only from SharePoint list properties. To solve the hours issue, I'm using this part of the function

Text(DateAdd(Now(), 4, Hours)

I can't figure out what I am missing in here.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @chiranjay ,

Firstly, if you are using this as a DefaultDate of a Date Picker, it has to be a date, so Text() will not work. Also Date fields are not necessarily blank so, try this (put in your Date Field name)

With( { wDay: DateAdd(Today(),1,Days), wHour: DateAdd(Now(),4,Hours) }, If( Value(ThisItem.YourDateFieldName) > 0, ThisItem.YourDateFieldName, tglSameDayDue.Value, wHour, wDay ) )
