Hi everyone,

If I create a new work package with lets say 3 action items (but only 2 of them with a specific person chosen in my choice field), it only submits these 2 action items . The one with an empty person choice field is not in my SharePoint list.

For the background of this combo box:

Name of person column in my SP list: Wunschressource

Name in my collection: LineWunschressource

Name of textinputfield: Input Wunschressource

DefaultSelectedItems on 'Input Wunschressource' : ThisItem.LineWunschressource

To create a collection to create a new work package I use

NewForm('Form new work package');;
ClearCollect(Items; 
 {LineWunschressource: glbEmptyPerson})

In my OneStart of my app:

Set(glbEmptyPerson, { 
 Claims:"", 
 Department:"", 
 DisplayName:"", 
 Email:"", 
 JobTitle:".", 
 Picture:"."
 }
);

The DefaulSelectedItem property:

ThisItem.LineWunschressource

I was able to search for a person by typing into the combo box but this is not possible anymore. Beside the fact that rows in my gallery without a chosen Person wont be submitted to SharePoint anymore.

The error appears in this function:

ForAll(
 Items;
 Patch(
 'Neuer SP 3400 ILLU Arbeitspakete Items';
 Defaults('Neuer SP 3400 ILLU Arbeitspakete Items');
 {
 Title: LineTitelTätigkeitBezug;
 Projekttyp: {Value: LineProjekttyp};
 Wunschressource: LineWunschressource;}))

Any idea what might be the cause? Thank you very much!

Hi @Jasmin_Sch ,
Do you mean you have three person combo box, but one of them cannot update person data successfully into SP list?
I need to collect below information:
1. Seems that you create a collection called “Items” with a column called “LineWunschressource”.
So why do you create the variable “glbEmptyPerson” with 6 blank columns? How do you populate these columns? Can you show me the data inside “LineWunschressource” (and the formula how to create them))?
2. Is “Input Wunschressource” the name of your combo box? Or do you have another textinput control?
3. What’s the Items property of your combo box? Using the default formula---“Choices([@listname].Wunschressource)”?
Also, I don’t know why you set “ThisItem.LineWunschressource” as the DefaulSelectedItem property of combo box. Can you explain more about this?
Best Regards,
Allen

Thank you for your reply! No I only have one combo box. With this combo box I want to search and select users.

Actually I need 2 Informations: The User name and his or her department.
User name: LineWunschressource;Departement: LineAbteilungWunschressource
How I create my collection:

NewForm('Form Neu');; ClearCollect( Items; { LineWunschressource:glbEmptyPerson; LineAbteilungWunschressource: "";})

Hi @Jasmin_Sch ,
In summary then, you are currently only having problems when submitting records.
So do you mean only records without chosen person cannot be submitted?
Can you show me the data of your Items collection(with its columns)? At least so far，I don't see any problems with your ForAll() function.
Best regards,
Allen
