General Discussion

Hello,

I have been searching the knowledge base and communities but cannot locate any support for my needs. 

I want to have a list of available services that can be selected by checking a box, each has a pre-defined cost; at the end of the section I want a tally of the selected services to present the customer with a total. 

What is my best approach to resolve this?

Thank you,
Todd

Hello Todd, 

Thanks for your question! This one is a personal favourite of mine. We often see customers using forms as timesheets, invoices, order forms - there's a lot the Calculation question type can do. 

Here's more from our Docs portal: https://docs.truecontext.com/1374411/Content/Published/360020921452.html?Highlight=calculation

The Calculation question type lets you take any numerical questions, earlier in the form, and them tally up with a calculation builder:

We created a lesson in our Level 2 (L2) over at TrueContext University, and you'd follow a similar setup, in showing the list of available services, at their cost, and then have a Calculation question type do the math.

The example there is pulling prices from a spreadsheet, but you can also assign prices within the form builder, and use Conditional Logic to do that work.

Here's the resource in L2: https://university.truecontext.com/guides/0e1f79ae-4e6c-11ee-b36a-0213f4967ee3/tasks/81fb7de2-1603-11ee-9cb3-063b596a99a7

I trust this helps you in building out your workflow!
