Hello, I just updated the Survey123 app to the latest version (1.10.25) and when submitting the survey it is stuck on "Getting Service Information." This is on an iOs device with Os version 9.3.1 (13E328). The survey worked fine before upgrading to this latest survey123 version. Do I need to upgrade the iOs version? Thanks heaps for any help, Simon

Hi there, I have worked on a new survey form for algal monitoring in streams. Four transects are completed for a reach of stream and several algal types are sampled at five verticals along each transect. Originally, I had used repeats for each transect but the user had to manually select each of the verticals and it was not possible to use relevance, calculations, or make question required within the repeat construct - which was causing some data entry errors (people forgetting to select the verticals in order or forgetting to select a vertical). I wanted to get rid of repeats so that I can implement relevance, makes questions required and perform an error checking calculation in the survey to reduce user entry error rates. My form works and performs well in Survey123 Connect but does not work in the Survey123 APP and is extremely slow to load (takes 3:30 - 4:30 minutes to load). Is this because there too many rows of questions in my XLS Form (see attached - 237 rows of xls questions). I tried truncating the survey to only include one transect with five verticals and everything works. Now I want to do this but for a total of four verticals. Maybe I am pushing the limits of the software here? Can anyone think of another way to construct this survey so that I can perform all 4 transects in the same survey without using repeats? Have multiple page surveys been implemented in Survey123 yet? This might provide a solution for me. Cheers, Simon

Found a solution to this by enforcing the calculation variables as integers. This was the thread which helped me solve this. "When using mathematical operators, be aware that sometimes you may need to cast values into numbers. In the previous examples we assumed that previous_question and other_previous_question where integers or decimals... but what if the question types were strings? Then you cast them as follows:" int(${previous_question}) + int(${other_previous_question}) <= 100

Hello all, I am working on a field survey that looks at sampling algal cover in streams across the Bay of Plenty Region in New Zealand. I am trying to create an error check field that is used to ensure that users enter % cover for algae types that will sum to 100%. First question is a select multiple where the user selects all algal types that they have at the site. Then the %cover of the relavant algal types is entered by the user. I was to ensure that these % cover of algal types sums to 100% and if it does not - a error message is displayed and the user corrects his cover values. Here is my construct in excel the calculation is: (${percent_no_algae1_1}+${percent_film1_1}+${percent_mats1_1}+${percent_cyano1_1}+${percent_sludge1_1}+${percent_green_fa1_1}+${percent_brown_fa1_1}) This is what happens below: the algal cover percentages are treated as a text field and the number 50+50 = 5050 instead of 100. I also have a constraint on this value and it must equal 100 (.=100). I have tried integer and decimals fields, and even used the bindesri fields to set them to integer or decimal but with no success. Has anyone had a similar issue occur to them in a calculation like this. Can I use a sum function instead of additions or is my addition syntax wrong? Thanks in advance for you help. Simon
