Conditional logic on input table results

    Asked on February 13, 2020 at 1:11 PM

    I would like to have a question appear depending on the answers in this table. 


    Question 1 = as in screenshot below, it's a table. 


    1581617234bite damage table Screenshot 10

    The multiple choice options under 'How often' are:


    Never

    Once

    Twice

    Three times

    Four times

    More than four times


    I'd like for the following question to only be visible if: 

    Shallow puncture, ¬Deep puncture, Tear wound or Stitches are NOT Never 


    Is this possible? I can't seem to find how to do conditional logic on table data.

    Since you cannot directly use the value of each field of the Input Table in the criteria of a condition, a workaround is to create a Short Text Entry field to where we can put the value of the selected options.

    Then use the UPDATE/CALCULATE FIELD condition to copy the value of the selected option in the Input Table to its corresponding text field. Here's an example condition:

    Do this for the Shallow puncture, ¬Deep puncture, Tear wound or Stitches options. 

    Here's what will happen:

    Now, instead of the input table values, you can use the SHORT TEXT ENTRY fields value in your condition to show/hide fields.

    Please try that and let us know how it goes.

    Thank you SO much for your quick responses, you guys. I really appreciate
    the video demo using my own example, and of course, your ingenious
    work-around.
    I am going to get cracking on this.
    I am so impressed with JotForm that I've just submitted a review here
    .
    Right now, I am working on a couple of pilot form and, should it be
    successful in terms of increased response rates and no usability problems,
    I will advise that the company moves to the paid version.
    Keep up the good work!
