Cumulative sum of hidden values in repeat group

Hi Lauren,

I think that you'd be able to use the sum function to sum the hidden
fields. Please refer to the wiki page here:
https://help.commcarehq.org/display/commcarepublic/CommCare+Functions#CommCareFunctions-sum

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Cheers,

Hello everyone, I have been trying to search for this question in past
threads, but haven't found it - I apologize if this has been asked before.

I am using a hidden value to calculate the amount of water that a
household uses each day, per water container (container capacity in liters

  • number of journeys to fetch water made in one day). This series of
    questions was made in a repeat group.

I would now like to make a new hidden value to calculate the total amount
of water (in liters) that a household uses each day, across all water
containers. Essentially, I want a cumulative sum of the hidden value
outputs in the repeat group. How can I do this? I appreciate any and all
help!

Thank you,
Lauren
