The Input Table element can be found in the Basic tab of the Form Elements panel.
In this guide, we will set up a survey questionnaire with ratings using the Input Table element and then calculate the total rating using the Form Calculation widget. Let’s start.
- Add an Input Table element to your form.

For the purpose of this guide, we’ll be using the Input Table’s default setup.
- Click the gear icon to open the properties panel.
- Go to the Options tab.
- Define the values in the Calculations Values field.

Note
The Calculation Values option only works on radio button and checkbox input type.
- For the calculations, add a Form Calculation widget to your form.

For more information, check out the “How to Perform Form Calculation Using a Widget” guide.
- Open the widget settings panel by clicking the wand icon.
- Click Add Field then choose the Input Table.

- Select the sub-fields to use in the calculations.

This will add the sub-fields in the calculation screen without operators.
- Complete the formula then click the Save button to save the changes.

Here’s a demo form with the setup above applied: https://www.jotform.com/221335927268461

This feature is not working for us. Though it is set up correctly, it will not perform the math function. It is like we are getting an average...
The instructions state the following:
Note: Choosing a different input type for the table, like a text box or number text box, if you want your respondents to define values for each cell, will not require you to set calculation values.
If this is the case, what if I want to use the dropdown box, how do I give each of the dropdown box answers a different value? For example I want the following dropdown values to equal the corresponding value.
Not at All - 0
A Little Bit - 1
Moderately - 2
Quite a Bit - 3
Extremely - 4
very very nice
Can more than one column be selected in each row?
