The Single-Line Sum response type is one of the more complicated types that can be used.Let's get the basics out of the way first: It may be chosen for either a question or an additional response field, and it can't be mapped by auto approval logic.
So how does it work? First, as the name implies, this response type should be used multiple times in the same question, so this would mean additional response fields. When you use this response type, you must pick a number that the total from all responses cannot be greater than, cannot be less than, or cannot equal the number picked. Then, create enough additional response fields to encompass the information being requested, making sure the number and condition you picked are the same in all fields. When the participant enters numerical values in these fields, they will add up, and the participant may either proceed if the limit was obeyed or will be held back if the limit was broken.
Let's talk about the example in the screenshot below. Seven additional response fields with this response type were created, each with the rule that the sum of all seven fields cannot be greater than 21.
