3. Survey List

12. Surveys & Decision Trees › 2. Surveys/Questionnaires › 3. Survey List

Note: Each procedure in this guide begins at the Contract Insight homepage, so any section can be followed on its own. Custom fields are configurable, so the exact field list on a contract category record may vary between environments.

1. Overview

Surveys › Survey Templates is the master list of every survey template configured in Contract Insight. The record count next to the title shows how many templates exist. Each row shows the template's Survey ID, Name, For Area (the record type it is used with, such as Contracts, e-Sourcing or Vendors/Customers), Date Created, Date Updated, Survey GUID and Active status, plus further columns for the template's messages and notification settings.

Like other list screens, the Survey Templates list has a view selector, a column chooser, column and multi-field filters, a keyword Search, Print and Export, and pagination. Each row's Manage button opens the template for editing, the Preview (eye) icon shows its details in a side panel, and the star adds it to your favorites.


2. Key Elements

  • View selector: All Survey Templates or My favorites.
  • Columns: Survey ID, Name, For Area, Date Created, Date Updated, Survey GUID, Active, Can Respondents See Scores, Welcome Message, Welcome Back Message, Attestation Message, EnteredBy, UpdatedBy, Notification Subject, Notification Body and Notification Skin.
  • List tools: Choose which fields this list shows (columns icon), Filter on several fields at once (filter icon), a filter icon on each column header, and Search.
  • Print and Export (Excel, PDF or CSV), plus Add to create a new template.
  • Row actions: Manage, Preview (eye icon) and Add to your favorites (star icon).
  • Pagination: page buttons and an Items per page drop-down at the bottom of the list.

Note: This list holds the reusable templates. Surveys actually attached to records are listed under Surveys › Survey Results.
