Replace 25 Power Apps globals with one record

TL;DR

A multi-screen Power Apps event form can replace roughly 25 global variables with one gblEvent record. Each Next button uses Patch to add or update its fields. A final Patch with Defaults(Events) creates the SharePoint item, while Errors(Events) can return the actual save error message.

Why it matters

• Makers: Initialise one gblEvent record, then Patch each screen's fields into it to reduce duplicate variable wiring.
• Makers: Use one final Patch with Defaults(Events) to create the SharePoint item and avoid forms spread across screens.
• Makers: Test SharePoint choice and person columns early because they require specific record shapes.
