people picker not working on repeating section

[jwiskema]

Good Day,

I have a people picker box that is contained within a repeating section.  When the field is in the repeating section you cannot set the "Connect to" to the source field:

If I remove the field from the repeating section and put it anywhere else on the form I can set the "Connected to" option:

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks,

Jennifer

That make sense. You can connect a unique control to a unique Sharepoint column.

You have not such repetitive columns on your list, so you cannot connect it inside a repetitive section.

There are some workarounds so as to extract information from repetitive section on a workflow.

Thanks for the quick reply!

That seems like a bug since the other fields work fine.  I made the field allow multiple users and it still didn't work.  Is there any documentation on the workaround?

Thanks again,

Jennifer
