Hi! Is there a way to create a matrix type question (like in the web) for Kobocollect? Or any ideas how make this into a form?
Hi @sarinarida and welcome to the community!
Unfortunately, Matrix type question only works when using Enketo, utilizing the Grid-theme layout.

Oh! alright, its there a way to make it appear like this in the survey? Essentially, what I want to happen is that is when the respondent selects the source of income, they also get to enter the amount they earn from it and sum it.
Hi @sarinarida,
Please share me the Matrix questions. I will share you, how i develop the matrix for my survey and use in Kobocollect?
I hope that I can create this as a matrix in the form. Where they can check their sources of income and enter how much they earn from it. And finally, its doesn’t have to be in the matrix but it would be great if I can sum all of their answers in the form where they can see it
Here’s what I attempted to do:
| begin_group | _0_20_Amount_per_source | 0.20 How much is the average monthly income of your household for the past 12 months by income source? | true | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_employee_salary | Employee (salary) | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘employee__salary’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_self_employed__ex__sari_sari | Self-employed (Ex. sari-sari store or small business) | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘self_employed__ex__sari_sari’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_subsistence_agri | Subsistence farming/agriculture/ livestock raising | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘subsistence_agri’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_fishing | Fish production/fishing | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘fishing’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_laborer_unskilled_worker | Laborer/Unskilled worker | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘laborer_unskilled_worker’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_retired_pensioner | Retired/Pensioner | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘retired_pensioner’) | |||||||
| decimal | _0_20_Amount_per_source_overseas_worker | Overseas worker | thousands-sep | selected(${0_19 Source_of_income}, ‘overseas_worker’) | |||||||
| calculate | _0_21_Average_Monthly_Income | 0.21 Average Monthly Income | Amount | true | ${_0_20_Amount_per_source_employee_salary} + ${_0_20_Amount_per_source_self_employed__ex__sari_sari}+${_0_20_Amount_per_source_subsistence} + ${_0_20_Amount_per_source_fishing}+${_0_20_Amount_per_source_laborer_unskilled_worker} + ${_0_20_Amount_per_source_retired_pensioner}+${_0_20_Amount_per_source_overseas_worker} | ||||||
| note | 0.21 Total Average Monthly Income | ||||||||||
| end_group |
@sarinarida, this site here should help you design your form as needed.

Wow, this is great! I will try this out! Hopefully, it also works in the KoboCollect app
@sarinarida, sorry as outlined by @hakan_cetinkaya and @Bulbulrds previously it only works with Enketo aka the webforms.
