Calculations using checkboxes

    I have a situation that for an event, members can arrive a day early, and leave a day after the event. In each case, early, or late, an additional $20 is added to the event fee.

    Using a checkbox, you can set it up with 2 choices, say Thursday, and Monday as a day early, or a day later. Selecting the choices returns Thursday, Monday, or Thursday, Monday to the form.

    I need to add the additional fee of either $20 if only one choice is made, or $40 if both days have been selected.

    Is this possible using a calculated field, in combination with the checkboxes? I have not been able to find a solution

    Thanks for your advice… Tom.

    Hello,

    There are some details not present in your description, however, I’ll try to explain the process with an example. Assuming your current equation is: fieldname1+fieldname2

    and the checkbox field (the fieldname3) includes two choices: for one or two additional days. You simply should enter as the values of the choices the additional price per choice, the number: 20 (the choices’ texts can be what you want), and the equation should be modified as follows: fieldname1+fieldname2+fieldname3

    If these are two separated checkbox fields (for one or two additional days): fieldname3, and fieldname4, the equation would be: fieldname1+fieldname2+fieldname3+fieldname4

    If the checkbox fields are unticked, their values are zero.

    The solution to implement depends of your form’s structure.

    Best regards.
