Logic - multiple children

@Flexible Childcare - yes  you can do this.. here is a sample form that i worked up to show a similar scenario … let me know if this is the type of thing you are seeking to build

essentially, it asks for the number to register, sets that number in a counter and then takes the user to the first ‘question group’ to enter the details. then it reduces the counter by one and if not zero goes to the next question group. etc. 

Hi @john.desborough this would be perfect….how do I do it? :)

Wow, thank you!! I will need to have a try and see how I get on. Can I touch base again next week if necessary?

@Flexible Childcare - the community is always here lol as am i.. too much it seems from time to time

Hi @john.desborough…...Thanks again for your pointers last week. I’ve tried to follow your logic but I cant get it to work in the same way as your example.

On screenshot 3, Branching & Calculations….do I need to add this logic to each ‘details of the child’ question?

@Flexible Childcare - no.. you only need to do it on the last question of the question group. ie if you have 4 questions in the group, put it on the last one… if you do it on each question, in a group then you will reduce the counter rapidly and not get the correct result

Sorry for yet more questions….I’ve almost got it cracked. I can get the logic to work effectively for all child numbers apart from the maximum, which in my case is 6.

When I test and say I have 6 children (god forbid!) I can only answer the details for 1 child before it takes me to question group 8 where I ask about the childcare.

On my last question group about the details of the children I’ve set the rule to:

Can you let me know my mistake please?

@Flexible Childcare - can you take a screenshot of the logic rules for the first child please, and for the logic rule where you set the counter variable.. just to make sure… 

thanks

Thanks again @john.desborough 

The next two screenshots show how I’ve applied the logic to the end of each child question group.

I’ve applied this logic to each child question group apart from the last one. The logic I applied on that one is:

@Flexible Childcare - is the logic rule less than or equal to 6? or just less than

Hi @john.desborough I had it as less than but have now changed to to less than or equal to and it works.

A huge thank you!!!

I might be a coffee adict now but at least I’ll get some sleep tonight!

Really appreciate all of your help John, thank you!

lol.. @Flexible Childcare /Todd - coffee addiction comes with the territory lol.. 

pay your success forward: next time you are at a coffee shop, ask if they provide ‘suspended coffees’ and if they do, buy one in addition to yours. Make someone who needs a coffee, but can’t afford it, smile!

cheers
