Auto populate current date

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 7

Hello all,

 

May be a very simple question for Pro users here. I'm working on an app based off share point list and struggling with one last thing. 

 

In my form, I've a date field (currently set to blank) which i want to get auto populate with the date when a user changes the status field from open to close (this is choice field).

 

Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

    Suppose an example of a Toggle called Toggle1 and a Label called Label1 

    Under the Text property of Label1 you can place this formula:

     

     

     

    If(Toggle1.Value = true,"Some Other Empty Text",Now())

     

     

     

    See if you can try and adapt the simple example to your use case. How the result of simple example looks is below:
