Still trying to understand this. I thought that format-date and format-time is used convert to dates and times to text as you said in this post "The format-date function should not be used - that's for generating a human-readable string from a date". I thought that Time was stored as text according to the Dates and Time in Survey123 for ArcGIS blog. It doesn't make sense to me that I would need to use format-date on a time field that is already stored as text.

I have a form that opens with a select one question that defaults to no. The form also opens with a group that shows the intake date and a due date and a due time. When I change the select one question to 'yes' this group disappears because relevant is set to only show the group when that select one question is no or null. When I look at the validate input screen all of the field values in that group are null as expected. When I change the select one question back to 'yes' this group is visible but now have empty values. There are no relevant formulas on any of these calculations. The formulas contain code that evaluate the intake date and depending on a priority will set the future dates. If those future dates fall on a Saturday or Sunday it will advance one day backward or forward. Time has a default of 17:00 I tried adding the same relevant formula that I have on the group ${appointment_needed}='no' or ${appointment_needed}='' but that did not make a difference. - using SurveyConnect version 2.7.72

I have separate date, time fields in a form that I want to concatenate into one datetime field. I'm following the suggestion that James wrote about in this post. I'm not using utcoffset. I don't know why I'm getting what looks like a date value between my date and time (shown in a note below). Appointment Time is a time field which is only supposed to store time as a string. I can see the string value in the validate input window in SurveyConnect.

I was updating an older form to use the null field type. I copied the new list of ESRI Field Types to this older form's type sheet. In my survey the drop down no longer works for this field. How can I fix it? Update: I figured out that I needed to reset the range in the data validation for that column of cells. Select one of the cells in the column for bind::esri:fieldType From the Data tab in Excel, Data Tools on the ribbon, click Data Validation...Data Validation. Click on the up arrow on Source. Excel will take you to the types worksheet. Select the new range. Click on the down arrow. Excel will take you back to this screen. Click on the By checking "Apply these changes to other cells with the same settings" it will apply this to all rows in the column. My dropdown works again and all of the choices are visible. I used this opportunity to sort these drop down lists alphabetically.

Hi Craig, Thanks for your responses. It is good to know my thoughts on this are not that far off. Should all of the Dispatchers in your organization be able to mark assignments as Completed in the web app? Or, should only certain Dispatchers have this ability? If the Project Owner had the ability to mark assignments as Completed, would this work for your scenario? I think that any software solution should be coupled with a SOP for dispatchers. As the project owner I would not want to be the one who is always turning on/off a dispatcher's ability to complete an assignment. In my scenario I'm not in the same department as the dispatchers. I would like to have an option within WF to allow a dispatcher to have the ability to complete an assignment. Could there be multiple levels of dispatchers? A dispatcher lead or supervisor could be given the ability to turn on/off the ability for other dispatchers to complete assignments. This dispatcher's privileges would be somewhere between a project owner and a regular dispatcher. For now I will pursue my original 3rd idea. Mike

In one of our workflows with WF there is a scenario (usually at 455 pm on a Friday) where the dispatcher group cannot make an assignment to a worker for various reasons. The only way to get the assignment out is to start calling around the office. The information gets relayed by voice, the task gets done, a phone call comes back that the assignment is done. This dispatcher can't go back into the assignment and close it out. Maybe the dispatcher never put it into WF. Either way that data point gets lost. Some ideas I have are that every dispatcher could also be a worker. But that would require every dispatcher to install the worker app on their phone which they probably won't do. Second idea would be that a dispatcher could complete an assignment they created. They can already cancel an assignment so it would seem that it would be possible for WF developers to add this option. My third idea would be to create separate web map or survey123 form the dispatcher can use to manually edit the HFS and complete the ticket. This is the most do-able thing I can do now although needing to introduce a separate app to a workflow is not ideal. What do other people do? Any other ideas?

I followed up with ESRI tech support and they were able to reproduce the issue. Here are the findings. BUG-000110354 Synopsis: The new Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS browser app fails to display data while configuring widgets if a map service is setup with definition queries and the layer IDs are not in sequence. Workaround: Create a new map document and manually assign sequential layer IDs As a further test, once I removed the offending layer, saved the map, and edited the dashboard I did not see the spinning icon any longer when trying to select a layer from the map. I was able to see all of the layers in the map.

Hi Annina, I'm experiencing the same behavior with a completely different dataset. I just published a feature layer from SDE. I created a map and added it to a new dashboard. I'm adding a list and I'm at the screen where I am supposed to see the layers from my map. All I see is a spinning icon. If I click on Select Layer and choose the map I just created then I can see the layers.

When I use search to locate and zoom to an address the marker icon blocks my ability to click on an existing feature at that same location. Is there a way to easily clear the marker? I am unable to click on the pink dot because the pin marker is in the way. The only way I have found to remove it is to click on submit report and drop a point. The pin marker goes away.

On the first issue I am using a map with a hosted feature layer view. I can add the map 'Rockville weather related incidents'. When I add the list I'm still getting the spinning icon, however, if I click select layer and choose the layer view through this process then it shows me the layer and associated table. I am able to make it work. The process just seems different than what I've done in the past. I'm still learning so maybe it is not as different as I think it is. On the second issue I can customize the list. I should have looked at the help guide more closely.

I'm trying to select layers from a map for the list widget in a new dashboard. The area where I would expect to see the layers is just a spinning icon. In a different dashboard I can see all of the layers from the map so I know I should be seeing something. If I choose from the Other Layers and preview the list I'm only seeing this: I see all of the columns and values when I preview the table.

Sometimes when I copy rows in the Excel spreadsheet while working on a survey the drop down menu doesn't work anymore in the new row I've created. This happened today when I wanted to take advantage of the newest template to "upgrade" a survey I created over a year ago. All of the drop down menus in the rows I copied from the original sheet into the new sheet don't work but blank rows work. I could go though and fix them all one by one but I think there should be a easier way. Is there a better method to upgrade a survey to the latest template?

I'm trying to understand the practical implications of the GlobalID enhancement in this update. I appreciate that a Global ID is unique while an ID may not be unique. My understanding is that you can't have a relationship between two items in ArcGIS Online unless you explicitly set it up in advance before publishing. Am I over-interpreting "...you can establish a relationship between the feature collected/inspected and the assignment itself" incorrectly? I don't see how passing a Global ID to a string field in a separate hosted feature layer will establish a relationship in ArcGIS Online. I think I would have to download the data first and then set up the relationship. Am I missing something?
