      Hello, thank you for the answer

       

      I have a survey. with 119 question, each question is a column. 

      each answer  for the survey is a row in the table.

       

      for example

       

      Company ID    Bank Account?       Accounting Practice     Accountant?      External Auditor    Online Banking?     

      1                            yes           Accounting system                  Yes                         No            No          No                 

      2                            No            Accounting records                 Yes                         No            No          No                 

      3                            Yes          Accounting system                    Yes                        yes           Yes         No                 

       

       

      I want to classify each company (row) as Organized, Semi Organized and Not organized.

      based on thier answers to the questions. 

       

      For example, if a company has a bank accout, Accounting practice, Accountant, Registered trade name and Tax number

       

      this company will be labeled as organized. 

      I have other criteria for semi organized and other for not organized

       

       

      Is this obtainable and how?

      Thank you

  • matout , a new column like

     

    new column =
    Var _1 = if([Bank Account]= "Yes" ,1,0) + if(not(isblank([Accounting Practice])),1,0)+ if([Accountant]= "Yes" ,1,0) + if([External Auditor]= "Yes" ,1,0) + if([Online Banking]= "Yes" ,1,0)
    return
    Switch( True() ,
    _1 = 5, "Organized",
    _1 >0 , "Semi Organized",
    "Not organized"
    )

     

    Change as per need

      Hello, thank you for the answer.

       

      this solution is helpful, however, there are 3 different values in the "Accounting practice" column.
      How can I diffrentiate them, this is not just true or false.
