Multiple Selection for Products - For services not chosen, wanting to show subtotal $0.


Hi, I need a way to show services that are not chosen on a Multiple Choice (with multiple selection) Question to show as $0 for it’s subtotal when I’m showing the total cost of the order and the breakdown per service.

Since a service not chosen technically has no number value, I believe that’s the issue with how I have my logic right now.

Would appreciate ideas! Thank you in advance!

@enjiepark - i know this may sound counter-intuitive, BUT if you create a variable for all the ‘quantities’ and ‘subtotals’  selected and use logic rules to assign the appropriate values to the variables, you could recall that information into the form and show the 0 quantity and $0 values in that description 

it won’t ‘screw up’ the ability to calculate the totals for the payment but can be used purely for display. 

I’ve had to resort to adding these types of ‘for display only’ variables and associated logic rules in numerous forms. 

hope that helps
