Good day

I have an awards app that is connected to an MS SharePoint DataSource, I am trying to update an existing record, on the first try (Clicking the save button) my patch runs into this error:

How ever when I click the save button again the patch runs successfully, and the updates are made to my MS SharePoint DataSource.

I have renamed the Title column in my SharePoint to "NominationID" which needs to be a required field.

Here is the code I am making use off:

Patch(

Summary_1,

If(IsBlank(_oldRecord), Defaults(Summary_1), _oldRecord),

{

NominationID: vNomination,

'Sum Score': vAverage,

'Members Score': vPanelMem,

//Category: {Id:LookUp(Category,Title= vCategory,ID),Value:vCategory},

NominationCategory:vCategory

}

);

May someone please assist me

Thank you @mmbr1606 for your prompt reply

I had changed it back to Title, however it is still giving the same error and still the same outcome, on the first click of the save button it through's the error, but when you click the save button again it is successful.

Based on the error message, it seems "vNomination" is empty for the first operation. Could you add a "notify(vNomination)" before Patch to check whether vNomination is empty? In addition, not sure your value for _oldRecord, try to split the two condition and test which condition throw this error.

Here is the code under my Save Button, Additionally I made the text related to _oldRecord in Red for easier retrieval

Clear(colNominations);
//Clear(colSubmissions);
Patch(
Adjudication_1,
ShowColumns(
colScores,
ID,
'Criteria 1',
'Criteria 2',
'Criteria 3',
'Criteria 4',
'Criteria 5'
)
);
//Set(mySelectedRecord, Gallery7_1.Selected);
Collect(
colNominations,
Filter(
Adjudication_1,
'Nomination Link'.Value = Gallery7_2.Selected.'Nomination Link'.Value
)
);
Set(
vAverage,
Blank()
);
Set(
vAverage,
Average(
colNominations,
Total
)
);
Set(
vNomination,
Blank()
);
Set(
vNomination,
Gallery7_2.Selected.'Nomination Link'.Value
);
Set(
vPanelMem,
Blank()
);
Set(
vPanelMem,
Concat(
colNominations,
'Panel Member'.DisplayName & ":" & Value(Total) & Char(10)
)
);
Set(
vNominees,
LookUp(
Nominations,
Reference = Gallery7_2.Selected.'Nomination Link'.Value
).Nominees
);
Set(
vCategory,
Blank()
);
Set(
vCategory,
Gallery7_2.Selected.'Nomination: Category'.Value
);

//Collect(colSubmissions,{Title:vNomination,MemberScore:vPanelMem,SumScore:vAverage,Category:vCategory});
Set(
_oldRecord,
LookUp(
Summary_1,
Title = vNomination
)
);

//Set(varCategory, LookUp(Category, Title = vCategory));
Patch(
Summary_1,
If(IsBlank(_oldRecord), Defaults(Summary_1), _oldRecord),
{

Title: vNomination,
'Sum Score': vAverage,
'Members Score': vPanelMem,
//Category: {Id:LookUp(Category,Title= vCategory,ID),Value:vCategory},
NominationCategory:vCategory

}
);
Notify(
"Successfully Updated Nominations Scores",
NotificationType.Success,
3000
);
Clear(colScores);
Set(
_oldRecord,
Blank()
);
