Add a tally counter
This example shows how to add a tally counter to your form. It displays a button on the form that increments a numeric field when tapped.
For this to work, you will need a numeric field with the data name tally_count
and a hyperlink field with the data name of increment
.
ON('click', 'increment', function(event) {
// increment the numeric field by 1
SETVALUE('tally_count', ($tally_count || 0) + 1);
});
Another approach to a tally counter uses a numeric field with the data name tally_count
and a Default Value of 0
. Also used is a Yes/No field with the data name of tally
with these substitutions below:

SETVALUE('tally_count', $tally_count + 1);
SETVALUE('tally', null);
}
if ($tally == 'subtract') {
SETVALUE('tally_count', $tally_count - 1);
SETVALUE('tally', null);
}
});
