Topic: What table control should I use?

Yunwei Wang (Feb 20 2020 at 19:03):

I am trying to model this input table into questionnaire but kind confused by different types of table controls defined in itemControl value set. Should I used gtable or atable for this?

Here is the Questionnaire.item I have created:

{
  "extension": [
    {
      "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/questionnaire-itemControl",
      "valueCodeableConcept": ""
    }
  ],
  "linkId": "7.1",
  "type": "group",
  "text": "Accessory Order",
  "repeats": "true",
  "item": [
    {
      "linkId": "7.1.1",
      "text": "Item Description",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "linkId": "7.1.2",
      "text": "Frequency",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "linkId": "7.1.3",
      "text": "Duration",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "linkId": "7.1.4",
      "text": "Quantity",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "linkId": "7.1.5",
      "text": "Refills",
      "type": "string"
    }
  ]
}

gtable. atable would be if each of the columns had a bunch of checkboxes for possible answers

+1 for gtable, but atable is getting removed. (J#20944; @Lloyd McKenzie )

@Buminda Nawagamuwa Thank you for the UI and JSON. Do I need to add a group for every row I need? Looks that is redundant since every answer row has the same group of items. Can I use repeats=true to indicate there would be multiple rows of answers

Lloyd McKenzie (Feb 21 2020 at 17:11):

repeats = true is what you need

Buminda Nawagamuwa (Feb 23 2020 at 23:47):

Yes, repeats=true should do.
