The Group Details page opens at the General tab - .
Figure 1 - The router's General tab
This tab contains general information about the router group.
- ID - the identification number for the router group. This is allocated automatically by Authoring when the group is created, and it cannot be changed.
- Name - the name given to the router group by the user. This would normally be a logical name to provide easy identification of the group. This can be changed by a user with the appropriate permissions.
- Description - a descriptive text provided by the user. This can be edited at any time by a user with the appropriate permissions.
- Question IDs - at the router level you can define up to 10 questions, based on the QuestionIDs. These questions will then be used as part of the selection criteria when the router is asked for an available survey which the respondent can be transferred to. Type the required variables into the field, separating them with commas. Spaces can be included after the commas, but they are not required as the string will automatically be formatted correctly by the system when it is reloaded.
Click Save or Save and Close after making any changes.
