model driven power app merge child records edit to main form

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

My model driven power app is using the Dataverse Account table and a custom table Document Delivery Preferences with a 1 account to many document delivery preferences relationship. I am trying to add a related table main form as a component directly onto another table main form. Following the url below I am able to add a form component to the Document Delivery Preferences showing the Account. However I want the reverse - I want to display my 1 or many Document Delivery Preferences in the Account form but the form control is not available. Any suggestions on how this can be implemented?

    Hi gfor,

    The 'Form Component Control' is based on one lookup column.

    Based on your description, Account table and a custom table Document Delivery Preferences is 1:N relationship.

    So you can add a form component to the Document Delivery Preferences showing the Account.

    If you want to display 1 Document Delivery Preferences in the Account form, you need create a new N:1 relationship between Account and Document Delivery Preferences.

    Then you can add one lookup column for Document Delivery Preferences in the account form, and enable  'Form Component Control' for the lookup column.

    Note:

    The form component control doesn't support embedded form component controls, such as adding a form component control to a form that is used by a form component control.
