Posted on by Sabier

Hello;

I'm creating an app to help keep track changes of product container, each product container has a different lot number, but will have the same name.

What I want to do is to show the lot code of the last product name that was used before replacing it for a new product container.

The table looks like this.

product -name	lot-number
product1	1234
product2	1235
product3	1236
product2	1237
product1	1238

I would like to find product product2 and return on the text box the lot code that will be 1237, but my current formula just return the first record matching that name.

If(Dropdown1.Selected.Value ="Old Container",LookUp(dataSource,product-name = Dropdown2.Selected.Value,lot-number) & If(Dropdown1.Selected.Value = "New Container", ScanResult))

The search will be based on the Dropdown2 value.

Thanks for your help.

Hi @Sabier ,

Try this - note the With() statement is only to avoid a Delegation warning on the First() statement

With( { wProduct, Sort( Filter( dataSource 'product-name' = Dropdown2.Selected.Value ), 'lot-number' Decending ).'lot-number' }, First(wProduct) )

Hi @Sabier ,

as per my understanding see the below approach.

Hope to help you to resolve your issue.
use the Filter Instead of Lookup and so you can sort data based on the last ID like descending ways.
First(SortByColumns(Filter(TestAkshay,MyUser.DisplayName<>Blank()),"ID",Descending))

Thanks,
Vijay
