Multiple Occurrence

Licensing Administrators can define Criteria as “Multiple Occurrence”.

This feature enables you to mark criteria as repetitive, meaning that Applicants can automate their answers and repeat some group answers multiple times without the need to update them manually. This is useful in cases when users need to repeat some group questions multiple times.

Imagine that a facility has multiple conference rooms, and we have a group of questions that describe each one. So, we have a group ‘Conference room’ with the following questions: Floor, Number of seats, and Projector (Yes/No). Naturally, users would want to repeat all questions from that group for each conference room.

To achieve that, there are properties ‘Multiple Occurrences’ and ‘Min Number Of Occurrences' (blank means optional) for the Category.

If some groups/criteria are flagged as Multiple Occurrences, then the matrix beneath the group name will display the ‘Add occurrence’ button to the right of the group name. By clicking on 'Add Occurrence', if a free set of questions for that group is available in the survey, answers will be saved under the existing survey questions. If not, a new set of survey questions for that group will be added to the survey.

As a Licensing Admin, you must enable the Multiple Occurrence switch when creating new criteria.
