Feedback for the scale question is similar to feedback for the multiple choice question. You can use only one row of a scale question for feedback at a time.

First, you select which row you want to use for feedback with the buttons to the left of the answer rows that are provided. For each possible answer in the scale of the scale question, you can provide what data has to be placed in the destination database, if the respondent chooses that answer. If the respondent does not provide an answer for the selected row, the option that you have selected for not answering a question will be used.


For the 'Not Applicable' answer, you can choose to use the NULL value if the respondent chooses the 'Not Applicable' answer. You can do this by selecting the value <<NULL>>.

The value that is below the answer that the respondent gives to the question will be used. The values that you can provide depend on the data type of the destination column. For the string type, you can enter any text string. For the numeric
type, you can provide any numerical vale. If the column is of type date, then you will be able to select any date and the value <<DateParticipated>>, which will be replaced by the date at which the respondent completes the survey. For the boolean data type, you will be able to select true or false.
