Survey123 Notes/Comment Icon

[JohnNelson3]

Does Survey123 have a note/comment icon associated with a survey? Can a user comment/write notes on a particular items in the survey and have it stored in a single note/comment field that is related by that item in the survey?

I am asking this because I don’t want to create a note/text field every time a selected item needs some additional notes. I am hoping that Survey123 has a single field that stores notes and relates it back by an item id or something. Similar to the way domains are/were stored in a enterprise database (Single Field Multiple Domains).

Hi John

Unfortunately it is not possible to do what you are looking to do. Your best option would be to create additional text fields for each question (to store the notes) and keep them hidden in the form by making them relevant. You could also use the new null question type, to create a question along the lines of 'do you want to write a note' which would be used to control the relevance of the note questions. This 'do you want to write a note' would not be written to the service.

Cheers
