Filters

By default the Responses and the Verbatims pages include two filters; the Interview Start date and the Interview Status, to enable the user to filter the data presented on those pages.

Figure 1 - The data filter available on the Responses and Verbatims pages

1. Select the desired Interview Start filter type, then select the From and To dates as required, and/or check the boxes for the desired Interview Statuses.

The data presented in the report is updated as you change the filter criteria. If no filter selections are made then all the available data will be presented. Once a filter selection is made, only the data that satisfies the filter criteria will be presented.

The number of filters currently active is shown in the top-left corner of the filter panel.

You can add additional filters to the pages. To do this:

1. In the Design page, for each question you wish to add as a filter, go to the question and open its Properties list.
2. Type __FILTER onto the Question Category field.

Note: Type two underscore characters first, then use all upper case.

3. Launch the survey, thereby updating the Instant Analytics Report.

This question will then be available as a filter.

If you wish to add a question as both a filter and a column, use a semi-colon between the categories, i.e. __FILTER;__VERBATIM_COLUMN.
