Hello.

 

I have an Excel table called "Tabela_ACTIVITIES".

In this table I have 3 columns: "DEPARTMENT", "TIMELINE", "ACTIVITIES". 

 

2022-03-02_09h15_09.png

 

On PowerApps, I have 3 dropdowns: one for "DEPARTMENT", another one for "TIMELINE" and a third one for "ACTIVITIES".  

 

2022-03-02_09h20_45.png

 

 

What I would like to do is this.

When I select "DEPARTMENT" and "TIMELINE", the "ACTIVITIES" dropdown should just show the activities regarding my previous choice.

 

 

Thank you.

    Hey!

    You can use Filter to that. Write this on Items property of your combobox.

    To timeline:

    Filter(DataSource, Department = Dropdown1.Selected.Value).Timeline

     

    To Activities:

    Filter(DataSource, Timeline = Dropdown2.Selected.Value, Department = Dropdown1.Selected.Value).Activities

     

    It sould be something like that

     

    Also, not sure but I think that excel does not work with multi filtering so, if needed, you should create a collection with that data and after that, use that collection instead

    Thank you for your help.

    I also would like to know if there is a way to show in DEPARTMENT dropdown non repetitive items from the same table.

    You can use function Distinct

     

    Distinct(Datasource.Department)

    How can I use the DISTINCT function with this one

    "Filter(Tabela_DEP_TIM_ACT, DEPARTMENT = Dropdown1_3.Selected.Result).TIMELINE" ?

     

    If I don't use it, I get many repetitive fields.

    Distinct(Filter(Tabela_DEP_TIM_ACT, DEPARTMENT = Dropdown1_3.Selected.Result).TIMELINE)
