Groups with Multiple Occurrence

COMET Superusers are able to define Groups as the ones that have “Multiple Occurrence”.

This feature enables you to mark specific groups as repetitive meaning that the Officials/Clubs can automate their answers and repeat some group answers multiple times, without the need to update it manually. This is useful in cases when users need to repeat some group questions multiple times.

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

 To achieve that, we added properties ‘Multiple Occurrences’ and ‘Min Number Of Occurrences' (blank means optional) to the Group.

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

As a Superuser, you need to enable the Multiple Occurrence switch while creating a new group

Please note that in case this feature is turned on, the users will have the :copy: Copy Icon enabled to repeat group answers multiple times while filling the match forms.
