Edit Form retains value from cache

Hello,


I have an edit form and after a user submits the data, for e.g. change owner to Max and submits the form, the form is updated without any issue.

 

But when the same user goes to next row/record in the same session where the owner is John, the system automatically shows Max as a value for field owner, is there a way to clear the cache on the next record entry?

 

Thanks

Bazz

HI @bazz12 ,

Could you please share a bit more about your issue?

Which form do you create? A Edit form in standalone canvas app or a custom form in SP list?

 

1. If the form that you mentioned is a Edit form in your canvas app, please consider take a try with the following workaround:

Set the OnSelect property of the "Edit" button (click it to navigate to your Edit screen) to following:

Navigate(EditScreen, ScreenTransition.None);
ResetForm(EditForm1);
EditForm(EditForm1)

Set the Item property of the Edit form to following:

BrowseGallery.Selected

 

2. If the form that you mentioned is the custom form in your SP list, please consider take a try with the following workaround:

Set the OnEdit property of the SharePointIntegration control to following:

Refresh('YourSPList');   /* <-- add this formula */
ResetForm(SharePointForm1); /* <-- add this formula */ EditForm(SharePointForm1)

Set the OnNew property of the SharePointIntegration control to following:

Refresh('YourSPList');
ResetForm(SharePointForm1); /* <-- add this formula */ NewForm(SharePointForm1)

Set the OnView property of the SharePointIntegration control to following:

Refresh('YourSPList');
ResetForm(SharePointForm1); /* <-- add this formula */ ViewForm(SharePointForm1)

then re-publish your custom form to your SP list, then check if the issue is solved.

If the issue still exists, please consider re-move the custom form from your SP list, then re-create a new one for it, check if the issue still exists.

 

Best regards,

I was having this issue too, but mostly fixed it by changing the default mode of the form to New.  This really should be fixed by default in all apps tbh.  Seeing old cached data in forms (both when viewing records, editing records and even new records) is just silly and annoying. InfoPath never had that issue.  Hopefully this gets fixed in an upcoming update so that we don't have to do this everytime we create an app.

If you want to reset all the values on the form you can use ResetForm().

If you want to reset only specific controls within the form you can use Reset.
