Multiple geopoints WITH altitude (Z value)

I am working on data collection for underground utilities, so I need the ability to modify the altitude (z value) to reflect the utility depth.  I know I can have multiple geopoints, as long as all but one have a "bind::esri:fieldType" that is not null.  I also know to get the altitude, I have to set the same "bind::esri:fieldType" field to "esriFieldTypePointZ".  How can I have a geopoint's "bind::esri:fieldType" set to "null" and "esriFieldTypePointZ" at the same time?  Not sure I understand why Esri chose to use that field for unrelated purposes...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
 Nick

Have you tried combining things in that column? Just because it has a drop-down doesn't mean you can't combine items. I'm not sure about this one though since I've never needed to try.

Also, did you see the blog post Working with Z values in Survey123?

At the end of their blog post, they suggest the same thing I was going to: Could you not use pulldata() on a single geopoint to pull out x, y, and z. You could dump them into a text field for viewing/editing.
