Setting the value of a single response question

Question

Gentlemen, good morning.

Currently using Sawtooth Software, version 8.4.8.

Here's the following situation:
In one of our multiple choice questions, which leads to the creation of a list for a single respose question, there is the possibility of checking only one option (apart from "None of the above"). In case the respondent checks only one option, I would like to set this column's index as the value in the single response question.
Where do I place the commands, given the fact that the single response question is a quota?

I have tried something like this:

1) Create a Pass-in field named "First Choice";
2) Try the commands below:

Begin Unverified Perl
    my $brand = 0;
    for ($i = 1; $i <= LISTLENGTH("marcasV2"); $i++)
    {
        if (LISTHASPARENTMEMBER("List",$i) && NUMCHECKED("Multiple") == 1 && GETVALUE("Multiple_".$i)==1)
        {$brand = $i;}
        else {$brand = 0;}
    }
    SETVALUE("FirstChoice",$brand)
End Unverified

Thanks a lot for your time.

Best,

Mauricio.

Your code looks like it ought to run.  Does it not?

Assuming that it is working, what behavior do you need to change?  I assume if you were to replace "FirstChoice" with the name of your quota question, I would think it would save to the database correctly.  Perhaps you also want additional code to skip the quota question from being seen by the respondent?
