Advanced skip logic

[warrenmxt]

Is there a way to add ‘skip logic’ to questions options based on answer provided in another question. For example:

1. How old is the child in months?
2. Which doses of measles vaccine has the child received?
   Option 1: 1st dose (option only displays if child is 18 months and below)
   Option 2: 2nd dose ( option displays only when child is 18 months and above).

@warrenmxt, please be informed that you could do it as outlined in the support article Adding Skip Logic. You could also find a relevant community post that has been discussed previously:

How do I skip a question based on an integer value?

You could do this as outlined in the image shared below: In the survey tab of your xlsform: [Image 0.1] In the choices tab of your xlsform: [Image 0.2] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when a condition is not satisfied [Image 1] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when a condition is satisfied [Image 2] Reference xlsform: Skipping Questions (Integer Value).xls (33.5 KB)

Thanks @Kal_Lam for your response but that’s not quite what I was looking for (I’m very familiar with skip logic). I apologize for not being very clear the first time around.

The ‘skip logic’ (not sure if that’s the correct term to use) I’m exploring is on question choices and not the question itself . To put it in perspective, I’m designing an immunization coverage form for several vaccines for children under the age of 60 months (5 years)

. Immunization doses are give at specific age months and this can be quite confusing if one is looking at a large sample size.

I’m wondering whether it’s at all possible to not show, for example, dose 2 of the measles vaccine in this

follow up question based on the age of the child; i.e., because the child has not reached the age of 18 months to receive the second dose.

Hope this clarifies my question.

Thanks

Hi @warrenmxt, you may find what you are looking for here in the docs.

You can see this in action with the following simple example using the choice_filter column in the survey sheet:

survey

type	name	label	choice_filter
integer	age_months	What is the age of this child?
select_multiple measles	measles_dose	i) Measles	months < ${age_months}

choices

list_name	name	label	months
measles	d1	Dose 1	9
measles	d2	Dose 2	18

Thanks @Josh . Your response worked beautifully.
