All common options:

Classic Options
For further information, please refer to Custom Fields – General Information.
Options listed below are unique and specific to this particular field type (if applicable).
Set Up
To start using the question set builder, create a custom field of type Special - Question Set Builder
Next, navigate to a record from which you'd like to collect answers, and add the questions within the builder.
Then, create a level two custom field of type 'Special - Question Set'.
After saving the custom field, set the Source Field to the level one Question Set Builder previously created.
The question set should now be visible to any level two under the level one.
Setting up Question Set Scoring
Question sets can also have scoring enabled. Follow these steps to get started:
- Create a Level 1 custom field of type Special - Question Set Builder. Ensure you have toggled on Enable Scoring in the configuration settings.
- Go to any Level 1 record and set up the questions you would like to ask. Use the Correct Answer and Score attributes to indicate the correct test answer as well as assign a specific score for each question.
- Create a new Level 2 custom field of type Special - Question Set. Under the Source Field setting, be sure to select the Question Set Builder custom field we created in Step 1.
- Create a new Level 2 custom field of type Special - Scoring Results. Ensure the Field Name for this new custom field does not contain any spaces as it will need to be referenced later.
- Navigate to UTA Settings > Level 2 tab > Features and Options section > Formula. Inside the Formula field, enter the following logic:
@level2.mycustomfield@="@evaluate_score()@";where "mycustomfield" is the Field Name you assigned to the Special - Scoring Results custom field. - To test your fields are working properly, save a Level 2 record with some of the test questions filled out. You will see the score and answers listed as below.
