Thanks it worked perfectly. Just want to add one query how can i validate it like if whatever coded in Q4 should be coded as Q7 and whatever coded in Q7 should be coded in Q8. Its in case that the user might by mistakenly removed the auto selected codes. Kindly note the user can select additional codes but cannot remove the selected codes.
Hi,
On this query,
You can add warning note that allows you to tell the user that they have not selected the option. I do this by adding a note question for every selection option and then adding a constraint to check for what you are asking for. See a sample for Q7 validated against Q4.
The behavior will be something like this when you select both
However when you fail to select in Q7 what was selected in Q4, this is what appears,
You can find a sample form here Select Auto Checkbox.xls (66.5 KB)

If Q4 responses were not selected in Q7 but I want to auto-select for both Q4 and Q7 in the responses in Q8, how can I do it?
This solution is not working in Kobo Collect App but in Enketo. If you save the data in KOboCollect App, it saves only the autoselected codes and not the codes manually selected. I think in Kobocollect App, the calculate is executed again when the user submits the form and it updates the variable.
So, what can be done in KoboCollect App
