Hi,

I am trying to have Data Propagation feature work on Dropdown fields on the Appointments /Recurrence table. Basically, when a recurrence is set I need the the data to flow from Recurrence form to Appointment form for dropdown fields.

Hi @Teresa24486 ,

Could you tell me:
What’s Data Propagation feature?
Is this a model driven problem?
What is the specific phenomenon of the problem? Could you provide some pictures or formulas?

I am confused about your question, could you provide more information?

Best Regards,
Wearsky

2- Not sure if this is a model driven problem.
3- Data doesnt propagate seamlessly from dropdown fields on Recurrence form to Appointments Form. It works with lookup.

Hi @Teresa24486,

Optionsets/Choices should be supported (@v-xiaochen-msft FYI). You need to ensure they use the same global option set and not a local option set. Can you try to re-create the field (with a new name) and then create the appointment field from the New button in the "Data Propagation" section?

Let me know how that goes!

hi @EricRegnier ,
The column names are defined both on Appointment and Recurrence tables with data propagation. The fields get rightly mapped from appointment to recurrence columns and vice-versa. BUT, when u check the saved recurrence forms, the dropdown data is missing on all recurrences.
Have you tried saving the recurrence record and checking the recurring records to verify this behavior?
