I am looking to figure out a way I could possibly use a single survey entry to create multiple records in the same data table. For example, I have the following survey I am using to track the locations of assets moving from one location to another: 

Naturally this data comes into a very concise table indicating how much of an asset has moved from one location to another location

I'm looking for a way I can manipulate this survey such that the data is entered as 2 different records- one for the incoming location and one for the outgoing location? This way when we export this data it is easier to create a pivot table tallying the number of assets in each locations.

Does anyone have any ideas of how this could be accomplished? I feel like I could potentially accomplish using something like repeats but am struggling to wrap my head around how to get this result

Hi Ahna,

The normal way to modify this would be to make the main part of your form a repeat - see Repeats—Survey123 for ArcGIS | Documentation  and Survey123 Tricks of the Trade: Repeats

I'm looking to do the exact same thing however the main for is a standalone, nonspatial table that is not related to any other table.  @JamesTedrick - Is this possible?
