Patching Columns in a Model Driven App

Posted on by EMKody 147

I have two tables: Publication and Quality Check.

The Publication table has two columns: Pub name (Primary) and Pub Type.

The Quality Check table looks up to the publication table.

 

Is it possible to set the publication type in the Quality Check table, based on how it is set on the related record in the Publication table?

    I would probably use Power Automate flows for this. When the Publication record is modified, specifically the Pub type field, get a power automate flow to loop through the related Quality Check records and use logic to define the value and field you want.

    Well, a little more context in what I am trying to accomplish I guess, and why I am unsure of how I could make a PA solution work:

    The above is the form for my 'Quality Check' table. What I am trying to do is hide the 'Magazine Issue Name' field, if the publication type on the related Publication is not 'Magazine'. A Power Automate flow wouldn't run until after the record is created, which is why I don't think that would work, and also the same limitation that I understand with setting up a BPF.
