I have a form that users will fill out and their answers will get scored. This is not a quiz or a survey. It’s an actual form and we need to attach numerical scores to their selections so that we can assess whether or not the project should move forward. I cannot figure out how to attach scores to each question’s answer. The form is part of a larger workflow.
To put another wrinkle in this, the form itself has multiple sections and certain sections display or don’t display depending on what the user’s role is. With whatever scoring I put in place, I need to make sure that the fields that don’t display to someone are not scored at all in that instance.
Has anyone tackled an issue like this and found a solution? Would it make more sense to convert the form to a quiz or survey? And if I do that, what are the ramifications or limitations that are different than leaving it as a regular form?
If using a standard Radio or Checkbox field you can enable the “Show values” option and include your scores in the value. This will allow you to then use a Number field with calculations enabled and total the score.

If the fields are conditionally displayed base on a user’s role, Gravity Forms will treat those fields as zero (0) when hidden and referenced in a calculation.
