Dynamic survey admin tool - how to enable pre- population of assessor survey question
James C would recommend using the 'Survey Logic' tab where you can set some logic to say when question value is 'x' then set value to another question, see Fairwood questionnaire for May 2021,
I would not recommend default value as that can't be changed dynamically, but below is a note on how to accomplish this
- On the survey logic tab click on 'Add New'
- Where is states 'Select question' select the first question you wish to trigger the prepopulating, for this story that would be 2.1 then select the top score by selecting it -

- Then add the other questions by clicking 'Add condition' and for this example the next question would be 2.6, then do the same as you did in step 2 by selecting the top value
- Once you had added all the questions and their value you wish to trigger the prepopulating then scroll down to the 'Define action(s)' header
- On the 'Select an action to add...' dropdown select 'Set question value' then select the question you wish to set the value from the dropdown, for this story it's 2.14
- Then select the value you wish it to be pre-populated to -

Repeat this process for all questions you wish to pre-populate.
you need to be in the 'Survey Logic' tab calculates values I do not recommend using as you have to write the logic yourself 😊 -
