Vehicle Booking System

Apologies if this has been asked before, however I am transitioning over from Access and am getting slightly lost with how power-apps functions.

I am creating a vehicle tracking app which is using 2 sharepoint lists. The home screen has a gallery list of all the vehicles within the fleet, taken from the list "VehicleRegister". Upon selecting the required vehicle the app navigates to a booking page with an edit form which accesses a list named "BookingLog", this contains the fields;

Vehicle Registration < Relating to the VehicleRegister List Booked out by Date booked... etc

Currently I use OnSelect,

NewForm(VehicleBookingForm);Navigate(BookingDetails, ScreenTransition.Fade)

To access the form where the user will input their information and date to book the vehicle etc. However how can I get it so that when the user is brought to this edit form the combobox with the selected vehicle is already selected?

You can pass 3rd parameter to the Navigation method

NewForm(VehicleBookingForm);Navigate(BookingDetails, ScreenTransition.Fade,{variablename:Dropdown.SelectedText.Value})

In the form where you want to show default selected combo box, follow below steps:

  • select combo box
  • go to DefaultSelectedItems property
  • write below code Lookup(Choices(datasourcename.'fieldname'),Value = variablename)

Please change variablename to the variable which you want to use, change datasourcename to your data source name, dropdown to your dropdown name and fieldname to your field name

I hope this helps
