Happy Thursday! What is the best approach to update the same value from one drop-down menu to another
SharePoint List A is call Requests: Column: Status Type: Choice
SharePoint List B is call Report Writer: Column: Report Status | Type: Choice
Once the user updated on SharePoint List A it will reflex the same value SharePoint List B and vice verse
Hopefully i explain it clearly 🙂
Thank you in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @oappdev ,
Actually Friday here in Oz.
Just so I am clear on what you want - you need the Report Status field in a new record in a SharePointIntegration PowerApps form to pull from another list in SharePoint where you have selected the item.
I assume by the tabs that you have two screens, the first based on the list selected and the second writing a new record (or is it an edit to the record) on another list.
May be pushing the envelope of design here, but you should have the value you need on the other screen. On the main list, the reference should be SharePointIntegration.Selected.FieldName (FieldName being the actual name), so if the default of a new record is set to this, it should populate. If I am on the right track here, we can expand this hopefully.

Ok thanks @oappdev ,
I am in Queensland, Australia.
The are probably many ways of doing this, but I will run with a Variable.
You have a Request form with a Status field - I will assume for the moment this is a text value,The Form name is not needed, but the control name (the field that is showing the data) is.
I will call it RequestStatus (its name will probably be TextInputxx - rename code below to this)
On the button to switch screens add to the code
Set(vStatus,RequestStatus.Text)
Here I am also using a Form name you will have to rename to yours - the form I will call ReportWriter
Put on the Default of the control you have labelled Report Status (also replace CurrentDefault with what the Default is presently)
If(
ReportWriter.Mode = FormMode.New,
vStatus,
CurrentDefault
)
To clean up at the end, put this on anything that exits or submits the form
Set(vStatus,Blank())

Thank you @WarrenBelz Here from South Florida "Miami"
You are the right track. Just wanted to see if it could be done 🙂
The First Tab - "Requests" stored all the new submission from a PowerApps Form
The Rerun Report Writer is where the admin will add note and update the "Status".
So if the Status get updated on the "Rerun Report Writer i want to show on the Requests Tab? Does that make sense? Let me know if i explain clear enough
Maybe l 'm doing something wrong

Thank you @WarrenBelz That will do the trick for now. Waiting for the feedback from the admin users 😁
