Question

Hello!I'm diving into someone else's app, trying to wrap my head around their reporting needs.The previous admin created several "checkbox" fields that are in reality, types of answers to a master field. I need to tally each checkbox and ideally, I'd love to get this all on one report. I theorize the reason they did individual checkboxes vs. one multi-select field is because, in my own experience with multi-select, a report of such won't cleanly count how many times each item was selected, but will report out instances of the specific combination of what was selected.In my example, I'm tallying types of support received, where there are 10 sub-types as check-boxes, so ideally this report shows the exact count of each type of service counted.Please and thank you!&nbsp;

Update: I think I figured this out 30 seconds after I hit send. I was thinking about a graph chart but I think I should be able to accomplish this with a summary report of my identified fields.&nbsp;

Did this work for you? I'm trying to achieve something similar and would love any tips!

You should be able to make a summary report of the checkbox fields.&nbsp;

Thanks for the reply! So far I only seem to be able to include one checkbox field at a time in a summary report. The app I inherited has a series of independent checkbox fields presented to respondents as "Select all that apply". Ideally I'd want to show for how many records each field was selected.

On the summary report, in the "Summarize What?" section you can hover beside that one checkbox field and see a + plus to add another field to summarize.
