How can I reset information in a field using a button

Posted on by LD-28111017-0

Hi,

I'd like to reset a field in FORM1, using a button in FORM5: when the user clicks on the button (called BACK) in FORM5 the app will move to FORM1 and the field REPORT IT should be refreshed and updated with a new information.

I apologize if I'm not clear enough, it's my first experience with Power Apps and I'm not familiar with this tool. I hope someone can help me :)

Thanks! Ludovica

Hi,

Is the information in the REPORT IT field came from FORM 5? If yes, assuming that the information in FORM 5 has already been submitted, add a Refresh() function on the OnSelect property of BACK button to refresh the data from the data source for FORM1.

Then add a ResetForm() function with it. Like this:

Refresh('Your Data Source Name'); ResetForm(FORM1);

Hi, I tried to do that but it doesn't work. I think that the issue is due to the fact that I've to refresh a field containing a function, not a data source list. Could it be the cause of this failure?
