What the file contains

The export is made of several sheets:

Sheet

What it holds

ePRO list

All published ePRO forms in the study, with global and per-form compliance rates.

ePRO compliance

Completion broken down subject by subject.

ePRO record list

Every ePRO record, as shown in the records dashboard.

(n) ePRO records

One sheet per published form, with one row per record and one column per question.

(n) Option value

A reference table mapping option labels to their values, for choice questions.

Sheets are numbered in the order of your ePRO forms: ePRO 1, ePRO 2, and so on.


How to read the cells

Empty cell

The question was visible but the subject did not answer it.

.hidden

The question was never shown to that subject, because conditional logic hid it.

⚠️ Warning: archived records are excluded from exports. If a record is missing from the file, check whether it has been archived before looking anywhere else.
