Hi Caroline,

Unfortunately, the survey module is a one-to-one setup to where one survey is tied to one table (list, dataset, etc), so you would need to do some custom development outside of the survey module to be able to have a form a user could fill out that is similar to a survey and have that form post to multiple tables.

We have a basic Javascript API tutorial that you can use to get a general idea on making a custom form/survey within LabKey's architecture, but you'll have to look for resource documentation outside of LabKey to come up with a way to do multiple form posts within a single page.
