hello to everyone,
I'm encountering a possible bug. I created a detail view that allows me to filter data from other tables with slices. In the detail view I have two columns in quick edit mode but when I insert the new date, they do not remain saved and they return to the dates entered previously. What could cause this problem?
This is the details view where i filter data in the app.
This is the table under the details view:
Does using the form view work instead of the detail view?
You may also want to check the date format of the underlying spreadsheet. Potentially days and months are interchanged. You can check by verifying if January 12th works or not.
Does the worksheet allow updates? If not, AppSheet can't update the values and simply reloads the originals.
First, note that for the new date to be submitted, you MUST tap away form the field. The Date control doesn't have any other way to detect that you are done entering the date. If you simply enter the date and never tap away from the field, the data will eventually be re-updated to the old data on a background "refresh". So, enter your new date and then tap into the other field OR just tap on the detail view somewhere. You should see the orange Edit indicator appear on the Sync button to show the date is being submitted..
If you have done the above and the old date still re-appears then you likely have some logic that is automatically returning the original date back into the field. Try this, open the spreadsheet, change the date in the app and then immediately switch to the sheet and watch that column in that row. Do you see your new Date appear and then get replaced with the original date? If so, then some logic within the app is getting triggered that is overwriting your new date with the old. You'll need to track down what logic is getting triggered.
I hope this helps!!
@Steve @WillowMobileSys when i change the date in the app, the date in the worksheet (in one drive) immediately change but the strange things is that in the app return to the first one. On the contrary, I noticed that if i change the date in the app, i tap away from the field and then i come back on the field, the date doesn't switch to the first one. It seems a problem of refersh time..
thanks for your support!
i solved creating a copy of the app based on the same worksheet.
