I have just implemented lookup tables and table filtering for
Province/District questions on forms that create new cases (retailers) and
edit existing ones. I've used the instructions here:
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/Lookup+Tables
and here:
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/Setup+a+Question+with+Filtered+Choices
The system seems to be working fine to new cases but when I try an edit a
case I get the following error message after selecting a case to edit:
Error occurred
Invalid cast of data [---] to type Date
Note that the first question in the form is 'Confirm date'.
I have searched on Confluence and can find no reference to this error.
I have 'cleared user data' but this does not solve the problem.
Help!
Hi Simon,
It sounds like the error is appearing the moment the form opens. Is this
so? If you can share the HQ link to this form, we can take a quick look.
Thanks,
Kriti

I'm not sure how to do this but if I click on Preview Form it takes me here:

So I think you are right.
I've downloaded the look-up tables and these are attached.

Hi Simon,
I was able to find your form using the CloudCare link you sent, so I was
able to take a look. Take a look at the second point in my last email
(reproduced below).
- Regarding the "invalid cast" error, the validation condition in
question ID retailer_startdate in your form may be the culprit. Take a look
at the last bullet on this help page
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/Calculations+with+Dates+and+Times to
see how comparisons with date and time values happen in CommCare.
Best,
Kriti

Hi Kriti
I have now (temporarily) removed the validation condition on
retailer_startdate in both forms ('Retailer details (new)' and 'Retailer
Details (edit)') pending getting support on the correct syntax for the
validation condition from Mofya.
Now, the 'Retailer details (new)' gives no errors but the 'Retailer details
(edit) form still gives the same error. I have gone back to check and
compare all date properties in both forms and seem to be set up the same.
Can you advise further please.
Many thanks
