PowerApps Modern Table Not sorting when AddColumns is used

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 113
Hello All - 
 
The modern table is a good control and is responsive. I am displaying my SharePoint Data using the modern table. I need another column to be display which is basically the sum of two columns. I use AddColumns in Power Apps to add this additional column to my already existing sharepoint data source. The column gets displayed correctly. The issue observes here is that the modern table no longer sorts data. If i remove the add columns and change the modern table Items property to the SharePoint data source then the sorting works as expected. Anyone else facing this issue or if there is any solution to this.
 
Modern Table Items = AddColumns(SPListData,NewCalculatedColumn, Quantity * Price)
I have the same question (0)

    hey 
     
    as of now i (and many others) do not suggest using modern controls in productive solutions, they are still in preview and can cause issues in different places.
     
    try the same in classic controls and see if it works.

    This is a modern control in preview version, so there may still be some bugs behind it. That’s why it’s important for us to share any issues or feedback with Microsoft, or we can report bugs to help improve the final release

    How to provide suggestion to Microsoft. I no longer see the provide suggestion icon on the control. Is there any specific blog or page where we need to post the issues.

    Still the same if anyone else is coming across this - i also tried putting the data in a collection first, but no luck there either.
