Can you explain how to add sub-code in QDA Miner Lite?
I saw the video they provide but I can not do it. It refuses it.
It says that I can not use identical name for code and category.
What I want to do is for example:
Economy
Poverty (1)
Poverty (2)\ lack of service
Here Poverty (1) is a code and also a category (2)?
Any idea from those who used it?

Hi Sev,
No, I did not, hence I had to work that part manually !

Greetings, I had the same problem, but I realized when you create a sub-category, you need to add a code to that sub-category, but the software doesn't allow you to use the exact words for the sub-category and the code. So, you need to change the name of the new code on the sub-category. I add a video to my answer to show how I do it. Tell me if works for you, bye!
Dear @Felipe Concha
Thank you for your help.
Will check this.
Kind regards
Mohamed
Yes, I had the same issue!
Looking at the video sent by Hamit Can : https://provalisresearch.com/resources/tutorials/qdaminer-create-edit-codes/
It did work for me if I started with the code/subcode combination the most advanced in my coding tree. If there was already an upper level mentioned, I did get the error message however. So you can enter it but you have to make sure to enter the longest path first.
In your example, you would have to enter first:
code = lack of service
category = Economy\Poverty
But making sure that neither 'Economy' nor 'Poverty' already exist at that step was the key in my case. I did enter 4 level codes and it worked:
code = Credentials/Credibility
category = Affective attitudes\Anticipated/expected affective attitudes\Positive affective attitude
Hope that helps!
