This seems to work fine for what I need. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-totals-based-on-multiple-criteria#post-93738 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 21:57:51 +0000 Chris Hajer 93738@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't think it can be done with the calculations which are available. And because you want to do it live, on the front end, you're going to have to do it with jQuery or JavaScript, which is how the calculations work now. I have not seen any examples of anyone doing this sort of calculation before form submission yet. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/conditional-totals-based-on-multiple-criteria#post-93494 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 10:32:57 +0000 longbow 93494@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, just wondering if someone could help as this is really mangling my head! I've already had a look at these three posts and think I'm almost there but not quite:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/simple-calculations" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/simple-calculations</a><br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/total-count-of-values" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/total-count-of-values</a><br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/adding-values" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/adding-values</a></p> <p>So I've got a list of 20 yes/no questions and the radio buttons consist of values yes = 1 and no = 0. You answer all 20 questions either yes/no and dependent on the answers to different questions, depends on the "group" that you fit into. So for instance scoring a minimum of 3 with Q1-Q5 means you're one group. Scoring a minimum of 3 between Q6-Q10 means another group and so on. There are four possible groups that you could fit into.</p> <p>And as long as you've scored 3 or more in only ONE category, then you're just in that one group (even if you've scored say 2 in another group and 2 and 0 in the other groups). I've got the totals displaying fine for each section so I can do conditional shizzle based on those values etc.</p> <p>However, if you score 3 or more in TWO or more groups, then you don't fit into a, b, c or d but actually group e! </p> <p>Now I can't help feeling that displaying a total for group e (when appropriate) should also be relatively straightforward but I don't think it can be done via the normal GF conditional widget logic or calculation functionality (unless you iteratively create more calculation fields that cover all permutations between 2 groups - but this seems messy). </p> <p>More likely a function that is then hooked into. </p> <p>So, could anyone give a heads up on how this might work? The conditional total for group e would need to update live (i.e. rather than at form submission) and would need to be a field because these answers and values will be being emailed to the participant.</p> <p>Any ideas? Thanks. </p>
