Repeat entry in Sharepoit more than once

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by hugosmurfs 9

I have an inventory app that loads inventory details into Sharepoint. I want to use a field like "Qty" to repeat or duplicate the number of entries into Sharepoint. Because I use barcoding in Sharepoint and attach the barcode to every inventory load, I can't load the entry with a quantity for more than 1, since the barcode would not be unique anymore, thus the request to be able to load the exact entry more than once without having to repeat all the fields. Any ideas?

    Hi @hugosmurfs ,

     

    Is Qty one column in your SP list?

    Could you please share more details of your SP list column?

    And Could you please share more details of your controls in your gallery now?

    What are the formula expressions of them?

    Do you want to save to one field more than once?

    You can use one textinput and one button control and then use patch function, you can also use form to achieve that.

    Button.OnSelect:Patch(datasource, defaults(datasource),{ColumnName:Textinput.text})

    More information:

    function-patch

     

    Hope this could be helpful.

     

    Best Regards.

    Yumia

    My apologies. Here is more information attached. I did end up using the collect and patch function but it is still frustrating for the guys to click on the button 15-30 times. Was hoping for another option. See attached file for current status on the project. Thanks.
