Radio Control Default

I have two screens that represent two views of the same data, one for reviewers and one for buyers.

Both screens are exactly the same except for the how the Galleries and Controls are filter/formatted.

I have a Radio control on both. The Radion control is pulling in the same default information from the same SPList using -

Gallery

Item: SortByColumns(Filter('Test List', StartsWith(Title, TextSearchBox1_2.Text)), "Title", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))
Radio control (1 & 2): Default: ThisItem.ContactStatus.Value

I would like to add an UpdateIf to the Radio 'OnChange' (if that is the correct place) that updates the column in the SPList when/if the user changes the status of an item in the Gallery using the Radio control.

Something like:
UpdateIf('Test List',CompanyName=Subtitle1_4.Text), ThisItem.ContactStatus.Value)

I'm a bit confused on how you have this setup. Are the radio buttons 4 seperate radio controls in the gallery for each status?

Nevermind I get it now.

I prefer to use OnSelect but something like

Patch('Test List',Lookup('Test List',id = ThisItem.id),{ContactStatus.Value : RadioControlName.Selected.Value})

ContractStatus might not need the .Value at the end I forget.

That should net the results you need.

I tried the following and go an error -
Update('Test List', First(Filter('Test List', CompanyName=Subtitle1_4.Text)), {ContactStatus: Radio3_1.Selected.Value})

Error Message:
Incompatible type. The 'ContactStatus' column in the data source you're updating is expects a 'Record' and you're using a 'Text' type.
******************************
It's a Gallery with an SPList as a data source. The Gallery has numerous controls, including one Radio control.

The Radio control has the following in the Items property:
Choices([@'Test List'].ContactStatus)

And the following in the Default property:
ThisItem.ContactStatus.Value

I want the user to be able to update the ContactStatus column for a given item by changing the Radio button.

Solved it!

UpdateIf(
'Test List',
CompanyName=Subtitle1_4.Text,
{
ContactStatus: {Value:Radio3.Selected.Value
}})

Thanks!

I don't know your schema etc. for this list, but be careful using that way, because if your Company Name column has multiple projects or whatever and it uses that same name, when you use the updateif it's going to update all instances of that. That's why I utilized the id of the selected item in my example. You can use updateif as well if you feel like it, but you want to make sure you are updating the actual selected value and not all values with Company Name being the same, unless that's the intention.

Yes, understood. Thank you for the caution.

How about a Radio button with a single hard-coded item "Primary". If the SPList shows true in the column list the Radio button should be true (there is no false, since I only hard-coded one item).

Below is an example. The text box is the status of the Gallery item the Radio should be reflecting. I want to put a formula in the default of the Radio control that says if default item is 'true' Radio 'true' if no Radio 'reset' (as there is no false).

Is this a separate issue? If so please start new thread and try to explain a bit clearer, kind of hard to understand that ask.

Yes, it could be considered a separate - though related, issue.

I solved it myself...

If(SDReviewScreenPSMImmediateNeedFld.Text="true","Primary Service Materials","")

Thank you for the help.
