Create a form that will automatically select the response based on the response selected from previous response

[ngolahdata21]

Dear All,

Sorry, i am the beginner for using kobotoolbox.
Just want to ask about similar case like this.

.1. Can we do autocode in single answer from integer? For Example; I am 30 y.o, next i should be automatic in range 25-35 age group.
2. Can we do autocode in single answer from more than 1 question? For example, My expenditure, 5.000.000 and I have car, ac, motor, ets then I should be automatic in SES A.
3. Can we do autocode in single answer from single answer? For example, if i select code 4 in Q6 then autocode 1 in Q7, etc.

If possible, can you share the xlsform for these cases?Autocode Score Sample.xlsx (12.0 KB)

Thank you in advance
