Questionnaire filling progress

Post by htuser »

Dear Cspro Developers,
I would like to know if you already think about logic for monitoring case filling progress, so we can track if a questionnaire is finished or how many percentage of the questionnaire have been filled? Item skipped must be considered as filled.

Thanks in advance,

The biggest problem with showing a "percent completed" has to do with rosters. Even if you counted skipped fields as filled, you don't know how many rows of a roster will be filled. For example, depending on the household, finishing one row could mean that you're 100% done, whereas in another household, finishing one row could mean that you're 25% done. We've thought a little about this but haven't been able to come up with a good solution.

In the future maybe we can figure out a solution that would allow the application programmer to set a progress bar that would help interviewers know how much of the questionnaire they've completed.
