Creating and managing criteria

Criteria are standards, rules, or tests on which a judgment or decision can be based. When designing surveys, there may be questions that need to be displayed only if certain conditions are met. Similarly, we may also want to create reports based on certain conditions / criteria. For example:

 IF Gender = Male
 AND
 Age = 18 Or Above

 Display Question 5.
 ELSE
 Jump to Question 6.
 

Here the criteria for displaying Question 5 is that respondent needs to be a male adult.

If you are using a System Variable in criteria then you can use the comma(,) symbol for the 'OR' option. Check the below image:

You can view created criteria by going to the question's Logic on which you have applied Logic criteria. But you cannot edit criteria which have already been created; instead, you can delete current criteria and add a new one.

Criteria are used in:

• Compound/Delayed Branching Logic
• Show / Hide Question Logic
• Show / Hide Options
• Action Alerts
• Data Filters
