Help:Survey Dates and Times (filter condition)
HELP PAGE CLOSE

The Dates and Times condition type allows you to create a condition that will include or exclude a response depending on when a respondent takes your survey. By combining Dates and Times conditions you can create even more complex scenarios than you would be able to with only one condition. Any dates and times that you enter into this field should be relative to the survey's time zone, which is noted in the condition.


[edit] compare

The compare field allows you to select which time you would like to have this condition depend on. After selecting an option for compare, you must complete at least one of the following restrictions: on or after, on or before and within time. You can use as many of the fields as you like to further restrict the condition.

  • Response's Starting Date and Time
    When a respondent begins to take your survey, the date and time on which they start is recorded into their response. Any dates you specify are always compared back to their initial starting date and time.

  • Response's Last Modified Date and Time
    If you select this option for compare, the response will be included or excluded based on the date that response was last modified by the respondent.


[edit] on or after

Completing this restriction allows you to set a condition that will only be true if the compare date falls on or after the date and time you specify here. Used in conjunction with on or before, you can create a condition that requires the compare date to fall between two dates.


[edit] on or before

Completing this restriction allows you to set a condition that will only be true if the compare date falls on or before the date and time you specify here. Used in conjunction with on or after, you can create a condition that requires the compare date to fall between two dates. If you complete both fields, your on or before date must fall after your on or after date.
