Re: Inaccurate data passed from an InfoPath Form into SharePoint Library

I would make sure that when the form was first published it created a new column versus using an existing core/base column? When you create a column name that already exist in the SharePoint Site Column Gallery.. IP will default to this column. You can just check the two fields to make sure they are creating a new column in your specific library. This can cause all sorts of problems...

That's an odd one. I'm not sure if there is a log of any kind.... if you save the form as source files, you can see the GUID of the column that you are promoting a field to, and the field that is being promoted.... that may help you see what the issue is. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb265073(v=office.12).aspx for a bit more info.

Correct, they are promoted directly from the form. It is odd though, when I created a completely new form library the information promoted properly. But within the existing one, the information is not correct. As I am new to SharePoint, I was not sure if there was any type of diagnostic tool or log file that would show with certainty where the data is being pulled from.

Thanks,

Hi - So are these promoted properties from your form?

Inaccurate data passed from an InfoPath Form into SharePoint Library

Good Morning,

I apologize if this issue has already been addressed, but was unable to locate a solution online.

To try and summarize:

Basically two properly titled fields are being populated in SharePoint via columns (Column A and Column B). The issue being is that both Columns are populated with the data from Column B. When I open and/or export the form, the value for Column A is correct. The only instance I can find where it is incorrect, is when the value is passed to the SharePoint Library

I am not sure if this could be part of the issues, but they are cascading fields.

I thank you in advance for your help,

Cody
