validate patch

condition a patch

The idea is to let the patch be made if the status column of the registration list that I will update is = "Not registered" if this condition is not met, simply throw a:

Notify ("The employee has already registered", Warning)

The patch formula works well and is as follows:

Patch (employee, First (Filter (Employees, Code = brsScanner.Value)), {Status: "Registered"})

the above formula indicates which record to update when the content of a code I scan is equal to the content of a column in a list

How can I apply a formula that condition the status column in the record that I will update?

Hi @King 

One way to do this would be to lookup the status of your target record. You could then Patch the record, only if the Status is "Not registered".

If(IsBlank(Lookup(employee, Status="Not registered")),
  Patch (employee, First (Filter (Employees, Code = brsScanner.Value)), {Status: "Registered"}),
  Notify ("The employee has already registered", Warning)
)

Hi @timl  It has not worked for me, even if the employee has an "Unregistered" status, he always goes to the notification, and the patch always ignores it.

I did it by bringing the status in a label

LookUp(Invitados, Code=brsScanner.Value,Correo)

If(Label1_2.Text="No Registered", Patch(Invitados, First (Filter (Invitados, Code = brsScanner.Value)), {Estado: "Registered"}), Notify("The Employee has already entered", Warning));
