General Description

The question-set builder custom field allows end users without Global Administrator privileges to create their own set of questions on a record and have the corresponding child records store the responses. Answers for the question-set builder custom field cannot be reported on. To see individual answers, navigate to the specific activity to view the results. If you need to report on answers, consider creating each question as its own custom field instead.

Setting up Question Set Scoring

Question sets can also have scoring enabled. Follow these steps to get started:

  1. Create a Level 1 custom field of type Special - Question Set Builder
  2. Ensure you have toggled on Enable Scoring in the configuration settings for the above custom field
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
