(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 90

Hello 

 

i have a SharePoint list named List 1 that has a lookup column named Customers that takes data from another list (List2) and has the customer info (like address,payment,tax code..etc).I create a power app form with Customer as a drop down and i want to auto populate the other fields (address ,payment,code..) based on the customer selection.

Any ideas ?

thank you

    Try and follow these steps:

    1. Insert a textbox1 and set it Default to: Dropdown1.Selected.Value using List1 (This picks the dropdown item)

    2. In your DatacardValue for Address put:
                    LookUp(List2,Customer=textbox1.Text,Address)
          For Payment DatacardValue:
                   LookUp(List2,Customer=textbox1.Text,Payment)

    Hi @andreas_TR ,

     

    Customer Name, Address, Tax code are additional fields bound to Name Column, they only appear when Name Column is saved, even if in SharePoint. So I suggest you create some custom cards to show these additional fields.

     

    The workaround:

    1. Add a custom card in the form

    2. Add two labels in custom card 

    3. set Label1 Text property: Name: Customer Name

    4. Set Label2 Text property: 

    LookUp('List 2',ID=DataCardValue1.Selected.Id).'Customer Name' // DataCardValue1 is the control Name of Name combo box.
