Filtering on date Help

I have a Teams Power app using dataverse.   The table name field is a text date as this is the key for this app.  

 

On selecting 'edit mode' and choosing a team, a collection is populated with all the entries for that team, past and future.    I need to be able to filter this further by not pulling in any dates prior to today.

 

I currently have this which is working now but has delegation errors

 

ClearCollect(colEditSchedule,
        AddColumns(Filter(OnCallSchedules, cr9f7_team = DropdownTeam.Selected.Name && DateValue(Name) >= Today()),"IsChosen", false))

Since this has the potential to grow quite large, I would like to avoid the delegation errors.

 

Any suggestions for how to do that here?

You're not going to be able to delegate that criteria because you are performing a PowerApp function on each record to support the criteria.  There is no way that PowerApps can delegate that to the source.

 

Consider the following formula instead:

ClearCollect(colEditSchedule,
    With({_items: Filter(OnCallSchedules, cr9f7_team = DropdownTeam.Selected.Name)},

        AddColumns(
            Filter(_items,
                 DateValue(Name) >= Today()
            ),
            "IsChosen", false
        )
    )
)

This will perform the non-delegable criteria on in-memory records returned from the first Filter statement.

 

I hope this is helpful for you.

With the formula you provided am I going to have to write this to manually bring in each column that I need?   

 

With the current formula:

With your formula as is:

Turn the Explicit column selection feature off in your app settings.

That doesn't seem to be an option for a Teams Power App.   My fault for not providing enough information.  This is a Teams Power app and the data is coming from a Dataverse table.

Ah, the devil is in the details!! 😈

 

Yes, that option is not available in Teams.  

The image you showed is the classic example of the feature I mentioned.  When it is on, PowerApps will only pull data for the columns that are used.  

I am not seeing in your picture though...is the cr9f7_team column getting populated or just the cr9f7_name?

There are 17 columns in that table that are used in the gallery and populated by the various controls.

 

Here is a different view  of the collection after using the formula provided 'as-is'.    I included a subset of columns from the table here.

@JR-BejeweledOne 

So the answer then is "yes", only the team and name columns are coming in.  

I asked that specifically because this is mimicking the exact thing that is seen when that feature I mentioned is on. 

The formula I provided specifically uses Name and Team...so, that is all that PowerApps thinks it needs and thus only retrieves them.

To resolve that (in a normal app), one would turn off that feature mentioned. 

What is odd is that your original formula DID get the column values - that formula is where you would see the missing information in a normal app.

 

So, I am not sure where to go from there.  It almost seems like there is a setting somewhere to control this.  As I don't work in the PowerApps Teams and Dataverse world that much, it is not my strong point.  But, the understanding of what it is doing is clear.  And, if I had a few bucks to bet, I'd say this is a bug (the lack of not being able to control that option).

 

I would have to do some trials to see if I can reproduce the results and what would be the workaround.

I don't know what is going on.   I have been having strange issues with Teams for about 2 weeks now.   Could be something going on in our environment, who knows.  

 

I left it over the weekend and it seems to be working correctly now.    All of the columns are being populated.

 

Happy New Year to me!
