Types of Entry (Forms)
Entry Type |
Description |
Available Parameters |
Grouping |
Used to group questions. By default, only the "Title" (mandatory) and "Description" fields are displayed when creating a grouping. When creating a grouping, it is possible to make it "repeatable," meaning it allows multiple different responses to the questions within this grouping. For example, in a business census form, the respondent might need to declare several different premises at different addresses: a "Address" grouping could then be created. Similarly, in a form asking for the respondent's family situation, they might need to declare one or more children: a "Dependent Children" grouping could then be created. |
