How to Assign Calculation Values

March 29, 2023

Calculation Values represent the numerical value of an input field. It is generally used for conditional logic and form calculations. This feature is supported in Dropdown, Single Choice, and Multiple Choice form elements.

To assign calculation values

  1. In the Form Builder, select the form element’s gear icon to open properties.
  2. In the properties pane on the right, go to Options.
  3. Switch on Use Calculation Values.
Steps to enable the Use Calculation Values option in the Form Builder

Below that option will be a 2-column table showing all the options on the left and a corresponding blank column on the right. The right column is where you will type in the respective calculation values for each option.

  1. Enter the value for each row or paste a set of line-separated values from your clipboard.

You can now use your dropdowns, radio buttons, or checkboxes in form calculations and conditions. See how it works in this demo form.
