hiding survey section with default answers

chiragtiwari

Dear Colleagues at the end of the survey i have created i have a QC/QA system that i want to hide from the surveyor. This section has two default answers added to it. But when I use ${platform}='z' in the relevant column to hide the entire group I lose the default answers.

When I remove the ${platform}='z' the default answers populate in the survey form. Can i please get some assistance?

Hi @chiragtiwari ,

What version of Survey123 Connect and the field app are you using? You need to be using the latest 3.11 release of both applications for hidden appearance to work.

Phil.

Hi Ismael,

I selected hidden in the appearance field but it doesn't do anything. Can you please advise.

Like @Anonymous User anticipated, using the hidden appearance looks like the best choice here. If you also apply a relevant statement, the question values will be set to null if the relevant expression evaluates to false.

Dear Philip,

Here is the section of the survey in question.

Can you provide a copy of your xlsx file, so I can take a closer look and see the best way to modify it to obtain the outcome you are after?

Hi Phil can you show me how to use the calculation field to resolve this issue?

Hi @chiragtiwari

When a question is not relevant, it can not have an answer, not data is submitted for not relevant questions. That is why you do not see your default answers for these questions once submitted.

You could use a "hidden" or "calculation" question type instead. These are questions that are always hidden from the form but have the answers saved behind the scenes. Or you could use the new "hidden" appearance on any question type to hide the question from the form, but if it is still relevant then it can still have a valid answer just it will not be displayed to the user.

Also, instead of using the "default" column, consider using the "calculation" column, especially if you still plan to use relevant on the same questions, as defaults will only load once when the form first opens, but calculations will continue to be applied after form load, even if the relevance of a question changes.

Regards,

Phil.
