Newbie question on Level in CSPro

Hi!

First Apology if I am posting in the wrong forum category. I am new to the forum as well as to CSPro.
I am currently quite confused about the level in CSPro even if I am reading the user guide.
Here is my scenario:
In a household survey there are three different questionnaires:
1. Household information: Including Roster,household income...etc
2. Individual questionnaires: for household head
3. Disable/Elder questionnaires: for disabled/Old member in the household

So, in this scenario there is only 2 level is that correct? If there is only 2 levels how could I deal with two different type of questionnaires at the Individual level while create dictionary and form?

Thank you in advance for your help/advice.

Best,
Sovatha

Dear Sovatha;

Basically multi level entry is based on one to many relationship, as i understand. If you share your questionnaire then i can tell you whether you need multi level entry or single level entry. My email address is khurshid.arshad@gmail.com.

Sovatha,

Are you only interviewing one household head and one disabled person for each household? If so, then you could create an application with one level and simply have these different sections as records on the first level. The only reason you might consider using two levels is if you will have multiple individual or disabled questionnaires for the single household questionnaire. In general, it is best to avoid using multiple levels if possible, as multiple levels complicate your application.
