Logic & Scoring

Logic and scoring features are also available for selected response types.

Logic

Only the ‘Yes/No’ response type supports this feature today. A custom question will be revealed when the user selects either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. This question currently supports ‘Number’ response type only.

Scoring

Only ‘Yes/No’, ‘Checkbox’, and ‘Dropdown’ response types support this feature today. Agency admins who create the checklist can pre-assign scores to the each response. This supports checklists that need to compute a total score for compliance monitoring purposes.
