Objective:
To Effectively Indicate which Line Items (Surveys) Photos are Taken in, from the Sent/Inbox.
Case/Function:
We average 300-1500 line items for some of our larger surveys and we are already utilizing the "Save Favorite Answer" function as well as the "Copy the sent data to a new survey" function. However, it is still difficult to scroll through large quantities of similar data without an image reference.
We have added a yes/no question to the top of the survey that currently displays "PHOTOS" in the Sent/Inbox. However, it requires the surveyor to remember to select "no" when they copy the line item. This leaves room for error and becomes useless to them if they forget.
Questions:
Hi Drew,
By 'line items', are you referring to the instance_name that is displayed in the submission lists? The instance name is not able to display a thumbnail of an image; it can display the filename. You can also use calculations to indicate if a photo is present using a calculation like (to report if a question names photo has a photo:
if(string-length(${photo}) > 0, "Photo present", "No photo")
James, that solution should work!
Thanks very much!
Hi James, I just tried that solution. However, it isn't working when we copy the sent data to a new survey. It's continuing to calculate that a photo is present even though it's only referencing the original photo taken.
Is there a way to indicate which survey the original photos were taken in?
