Sharepoint list form edit screen keeps resetting

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 176

I've created an app from a sharepoint list. It has 3 screens. A view of the entire sharepoint list, a view of the details of a single item, and an edit/add new item screen of the in the list. Last week, all of the screens were working correctly. The edit/new screen either displayed defaults for some of the drop down boxes if it was adding a new item or it would diplay the previous choices that had been made if you were editing a previously added item. I was out a few days this week, and now the edit/new screen reverts all previously selected drop downs to their defaults. I'm pretty sure i need to add similar code to this:

Refresh('YourSPList');
Set(SharePointFormMode, "ShowForm");
ViewForm(ViewForm);
Navigate(ViewFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None)

I'm not sure where to add this code. I'm sure it needs to be added to the OnView property but i can't seem to find where to add that.

    I believe i have located the correct place to enter the code to help fix my problem , but the updated function code didn't fix the problem. Any help appreciated. I've attached a screen shot of where i inserted the function below.

    Its like the form keeps defaulting back to whatever the dropdown boxes default selections were.

    Bump! Can someone please help! I'm at the point of deleting the sharepoint list and the app and starting completely over from scratch and i have so much time invested in this so far. I'm sure i'm missing something or doing something wrong, but i'm not sure what. Please, any and all help greatly appreciated!

    Hi @SeanTambling ,

     

    I just tested with my previously created SharePoint app and I cannot reproduce your issue. Since you mentioned that you have already recreated the app, did this issue solve with the new app? How did you create the app, from Start with data > SharePoint connection?

     

    Regards,

    Mona
