Form is not submitting

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 260

Hi all,

 

I have various forms through-out my app and they are connected to a gallery. When I submit the forms most of them push the data through except for 2 and I cannot for the life of me figure out why only these two won't send the data through to the dataverse table. How do I figure this out??

    Are the forms heavily customised / adapted or are they just as they were upon creation?

     

    If they are heavily customised, one of the things that can cause issues is if the datacard field names do not match the logical (internal) name for the Dataverse column.

     

    Actually for starters, run a monitor session while you carrout these actions and you may be able to trace the issue. Open this up under teh app checker in power apps studio

    I tried that but it doesn't actually tell me what is wrong of why its not submitting. I have realised that it will push the information through on the second time that I select submit.

     

    On select of the button is 

    SubmitForm(Form2);
    SubmitForm(Form3);
    SubmitForm(Form4);
    SubmitForm(Form5);
    SubmitForm(Form6)
     
    So not sure why its doing this
     
    @Amik or @WarrenBelz  would you have any idea?

    @carrie-anne27 ,

    Responding as you tagged me. One possibility is that you are changing something on a Form which is also updated on a subsequent Form, which means the second form does not contain the current version of that field and the Update may fail.

    hmmm.. I checked and all my forms are different, there is no double up. It is only Form 5 & Form 6 but when I submit them without the other forms they work... so I assume there has to be something in another form that is stopping just those two? I am not sure how to find out

    This seems to be a similar issue, which may help...  https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Power-Apps/Submit-multiple-forms-to-the-same-datasource/td-p/1422531

    @carrie-anne27 - only comment here is that I would avoid chaining the SubmitForm operation for the same data source as this can lead to inconsistent results (with Dataverse at least).

     

    Along with the solution you have accepted, you can alternatively Patch the specific DataCards in those problem Forms:

     

    Patch(
     'Your Table',
     'Your Record'
     ),
     Form2.Updates,
     Form3.Updates,
     Form4.Updates,
     {
     'Field1': DataCard1.Update,
     'Field2': DataCard2.Update
     }
    )
