1. What is the issue?
I have an XLSForm form called “Entreprises” that creates an “entreprise” entity. I collect data from ODK Collect - ODK Central. The form has two text fields, ‘enseigne’ and “denomination” which are used to calculate a "label" field using the following formula:
if(boolean(${enseigne}),concat(${denomination},' (',${enseigne},')'),${denomination})
This “label” field is saved as the “denomination” property of the “enterprise” entity that will be created. My version of ODK Collect (2026.2.0 Beta 0) has an “Experimental” Feature that lets me view the list of entities already available.
When I collect data offline, the form is visible in “Ready to Send,” and the created entity is visible in ‘Experimental’ with its “denomination” field exactly as expected. However, when I go online, the data is sent to the server, and there, the value of the “denomination” property of the created entity is empty. Furthermore, when I check again in “Experimental,” I see that the “denomination” property no longer has a value.
