INPUT() with Date

[aijac1314]

Dear, I need help with INPUT()

I try to create an action to let user update certain column, I found that, if the column is Date type, then it will not allowed to save.

Is this a bug? Or I have configure wrongly?

Below as the scenario:
[Payment Date] - Date

INPUT(“Payment Date”,"")

I also treid:
INPUT(“Payment Date”,today())

Both result is same, the update form is pop out, it also allow me to choose the date from a calendar. But it not allowed me to save.

New INPUT() function --- binding dynamic inputs to a data change action Announcements

Hello friends, i’m trying to use the input() function in a very simple way, but i can’t get the popup to save, this is my current configuration, i’m hoping to use input() as a way to add comments to rows directly from a dynamic dashboard by using an inline action.

Dear Marc_Dillon, thanks for helping.

I tried go thtough the shared topic, but i have no luck, I still don’t know why there are no any changes upon clicking the save button.

I tried to edit the record with an edit form, in the edit form, it is able to save, but it is failed to save if I using the INPUT() function to just update the Payment Date column.

Did you know....that there IS a pop-up Form available using the INPUT() function? Tips & Tricks 💡

Since Actions are where the INPUT function is used and Actions DO NOT operate on slices as a datasource, the INPUT function processing MUST be considered against the base table. This means that any App Formulas, Required fields, Non-Editable fields,etc across the entire row all need to be considered when using the INPUT function.
