ValidateField error in PowerApps

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by v.udhay 80

hello all, 

I am creating a power app with my simple custom table with two fields. 

I have a date field which has been validated only to accept future date inside ValidateField method. 

If date is past date it throws an error "Invalid Date"

As all know, this works fine in D365 FO forms and tables. 

Now, I would like to bring the same error in a power app which i create. Is it possible ? 

If yes, how it is possible. 

Thanks in advance. 

Regards,

Udhay

    Hi Udhay,

    A data entity should also validate the table logic. If this one is not executed correctly, you can also write additional validations on the data entity.

    Hello Udhay,

    What is it that you want to achieve ultimately with the custom table and the power app?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Thanks for the reply André. I observed that it is validating the table logic but the validation error from table is not popping out in PowerApp.

    I would like to show only invalid date error which comes from validatefield method on power app. How to separate it?

    Hi Udhay,

    Possibly, you can ask this question on the PowerApps forum as this is more related to PowerApps itself. powerusers.microsoft.com/.../PowerApps1
