Re: Support With Checkbox/Multiple select

 

Hi guys,
I am facing the same issue as you Asiz, and was planning to do a custom solution for the Palestine project: Use 10-ish "Yes only" dataelements, and group them together in a multiple select dropdown/popover/adaptation of select2 - all while using the underlying yes only dataelements.

Perhaps the solution can be improved upon so we could implement a generic version in the /\w* capture/g clients.

As I have already mention i have got nearly 20 services to select from and creating data element for each and every single services as yes only or yes/no will over populate the data element list. I have got another scenario where i have to register my provider. In that program i have to chose either the provider is certified, trained or interested. And the we have nearly 15 services in the list. So that means we need to create 45 data elements to capture the details. I am afraid to implement this idea. Can you or anyone suggest me any possible solution?
