Maybe this is what you are trying to do that has been discussed in our previous post:

Display those choices that are not selected in a select multiple question previously

Hi @rahmat, You cold also do it as outlined in the image shared below: In the survey tab of your xlsform: [Image 1] In the choices tab of your xlsform: [Image 2] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: [Image 3] Reference xlsform: choice_filter.xlsx (62.5 KB)

Hi Lam,
Thank you for your prompt reply. My issue is a little bit complicated. I am explaining the details here.
Please see the screenshot. First I am listing my requirement.

• Option 2 in Q23 Cannot be selected if option 1 is selected in Q22.
• Option 3 in Q23 Cannot be selected if option 3 is selected in Q22.

If this is the case, it’s more of a constraint than using the cascading select. Here are some previously discussed posts that should be helpful for you:

In this case, maybe you could do it as shown in the image shared below using this expressions in the constraint: not(selected(., ‘c’) and (selected(.,’a’) or selected(.,’b’))) and not(selected(., ‘d’) and (selected(.,’a’) or selected(.,’b’))) In the survey tab of your xlsform: [Image 1] In the choices tab of your xlsform: [Image 2] Data entry screen as seen in Enekto: when data is entered as expected [Image 3] Data entry screen as seen in Enekto: when data is not entered as expected …

Hi @sarbeswar, You could do it as outlined in the image shown below: In the survey tab of your xlsform: [Image 1] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: No error message seen when select-able choices are selected.

Hi Lam,
This constraint is only for one question. I actually need these constraints based on another question selection. I really appreciate your kind help.

Thank you,
