I have a long format dataset with data error on the variables of kg5, k68, and k912 like this,

As can be seen on the dataset, all the values of variables that start with "k" are zero. However, it is not completely correct.
The correct rule is:
When the variable "gr" repeated grades within id, the value of corresponding "K" starting variable should be equal to 1.
For example, for the person with ID==1, gr repeated value of "9" in year 12, then k912 should be 1. (Because the student is retained in the range from 9 to 12 grades).
Like this, for the person with ID==6, gr repeated value of "6" in year 11., then k68 should be 1. (Because the student is retained in the range from 6 to 8 grades).
How can I use Stata code to correct the data error?
Thank you for your help!
