Hi Team,
We need to achieve below criteria
When the user enters the values like for example (10,20,30,……) the result should be displayed in percentage like(10%,20%,30%,…….).Could you suggest on this.

Supriya
Hi @msupriya
What you enter is probably what you would get out. So for you to achieve this, I would suggest you try the following
- Add an additional note question and then pull the results from the entered values as part of the text for the note
e.g ${Question}% - Create a follow-up text question and add a “calculation” column to your form where you put the following concat(${Question},"%").
PS: Change the {Question} with the {name of the question for which you are entering the values}.

Hello @msupriya,
In addition to the solution of @stephanealoo, the 2nd question should be set read_only = true.
You might also regard other options, like:
- Let the user enter a % (and control entry format with regex)
- If the % choices can be fixed, used a select_one type with … % as labels (and maybe appearance minimal)
- Just write in the question label: … value in % (or as hint text).
Best regards

Hi @msupriya,
Backing up on what @wroos as advised, you could do the same as outlined below:
In the survey tab of your xlsform:
Data entry screen as seen in Enketo:
Reference xlsform:
Display % using regex.xlsx (10.2 KB)
To learn more on regex, please feel free to have a look at our support article Restricting text responses with regular expressions.
Have a great day!
