Hi,
While designing forms, we wanted to have fields where user can select multiple values.
E.g. Services that a particular provider offers.
Is there any option to select multiple values from a list or using check boxes?

No, unfortunately we don’t have that kind of feature.
Actually storing multiple values for a single data-element will create a problem later during aggregation/analysis. If you have a short pre-defined list of services, I would suggest creating corresponding data element of type yes/no for each service.

Hi Tahir,
We attempted to do this with scripts in a custom form but stored all the selections in one field for analysis.
I think you can turn options into data elements or attributes with Yes only field type.
