Using Conditional Sections

Updated over a week ago

Conditional sections give you the ability to hide or display a block of questions depending on the answer to a Yes/No Conditional Section Header

Adding Conditional Sections

The Conditional Section works on the If then logic. You have 3 answer types to select from: Yes/No, Check Box and Multi-choice.

To do this:

  1. Log in to your Admin Console (Computer log-in).

  2. Go to Forms.

  3. Either create a Custom Form or Alter an Existing form.

  4. Click Conditional Section.

  5. Enter the Text

  6. Add the Questions you want to show or hide below the Conditional Section.

  7. Select the Answer Type - Yes/No, Checkbox or Multi-select

  8. If you want to add more questions that aren't affected by the conditional section then add a Section Header to close the Conditional Section.


Answer Conditional Section on Mobile App

Once you've set up your Form, head over to the App to start filling it out:

  • If you didn't receive a delivery that day, click Save Final.

  • If you did receive a delivery, select yes and continue filling in the form as normal.


Examples

  1. If you have questions that differ depending on food type e.g. Sous Vide cooking temperatures. You can use Conditional Sections to have different numeric boundaries.

  2. If your team is forgetting to complete their Ad Hoc Forms, you could change the Schedule to Daily then use a conditional section to stop them from having to complete the whole form if it's not relevant.


Tips & Tricks

  • Conditional Sections only hide and display Questions. Section Headers, Collapsible Panels or Instruction Text cannot be hidden.

  • Conditional Sections can be used for repeating sections, just as Section Headers are.

  • The default for Conditional Sections is to hide the section; to reveal it you have to select Yes.
