Input Table, Conditions: Add a way to easily create and manage conditions on each subfield

    Asked on November 4, 2020 at 11:15 PM
    I do have a question and possibly a suggestion for a
    future implementation into Jotform. Could you please advise the best way of
    cloning a condition but alter it per line without manually going in and
    changing each time? Attached are some screenshots to help get the message
    across:

    Is there a way of not having to manually select the next field and moving
    to the next column? I.e. is there a faster way of adding conditions per
    field or do I really have to go line by line per spreadsheet? My suggestion
    to make this easier would be to allow editing the condition in the field by
    double clicking and editing the already existing condition field. Or even
    be able to select multiple rows to be assigned to multiple rows instead of
    just assigning to one line.
    I'm open to suggestions to make this process a more efficient one.
    I really appreciate your guys' help.
    Thanks,

    We would like to apologize for any inconvenience. For some reason, the screenshot(s) you are trying to share with us was not posted. If you are replying directly from your email, may I suggest that you reply to this ticket instead, please? You can include a screenshot in your reply by following the instructions in this guide — How-to-Post-Screenshots-to-Our-Support-Forum 

    As for your concern, I understand that you are referring to how you can easily create conditions for each field on the Input Table field, is that correct? If that is the case, I'm afraid that, right now, the only way to add the subfields in an Input Table field to conditions (calculation) is by selecting it one by one.

    Once we get to view the screenshots you are trying to share with us, we will be escalating your concern to our developers as a feature request on your behalf.

    We will wait for your response.

    Hopefully the screenshots go through this time. In regards to your question, yes you are correct. It is so tedious having to go line by line espexially if you have a large matrix in your table that you want filled. This would be a huge help to me and would help me to build a case to my company to buy a yearly subscription. So far things are looking promising but if you can get this implemented I would be sure that I can get something going. 1604621071 5fa4930f9b1c3 image Screenshot 101604621071 5fa4930f85263 image (1) Screenshot 211604621071 5fa4930f37268 image (2) Screenshot 32


    On a side note, I had received a promotion for a yearly subscription at a discount. Is this something that you guys can offer again if we were to buy silver or gold?


    Thanks again for your help ahead of time.

    Thank you for explaining your concern further. For regular form fields with conditions associated with it, there is a Condition icon that appears on the right when you click the field on the builder page. Clicking the icon will load all the conditions associated with that field. And since this feature isn't available to every subfield on an Input Table field, I have forwarded your concern to our developers as a feature request on your behalf. Although we cannot guarantee that it will be implemented anytime soon, please be assured that once the feature becomes available we will notify you on this ticket the soonest.


    As for your other concern, I have moved it to a new ticket considering it is about another topic.

    Here's the link to the new ticket: https://www.jotform.com/answers/2683346

    We will be responding to that ticket shortly. If you have any follow-up questions about the new topic, please refer to that ticket to avoid confusion.
