Furthermore, SurveyGold provides the ability to view a subset of all respondents to a given survey based upon any response to any question or a response date range or both. This "filter" feature allows you the ability to view respondents from a particular time period. It is then possible to create graphs and reports based upon the respondents in the filtered set of respondents.
Normally, when survey responses are recorded in the Conduct Survey tab of the SurveyGold application, the current "date of entry" is recorded in the response record. However, SurveyGold also provides the optional ability to specify a specific date (e.g., a date in the past) for which the response occurred. This feature (enabled via the "Confirm response date upon Conclude Survey" SurveyGold preference setting) provides the ability to accurately record time-sensitive responses long after the survey was conducted while reflecting the date and time the past that the response actually occurred.

The Survey Author's Problem You are a survey author. You need to conduct a survey using multiple surveyors who will engage respondents in-person, face-to-face.
The SurveyGold Solution SurveyGold Mobile solves the problem of how to create and deploy a survey to a network of field surveyors. These field surveyors are your colleagues who use the free SurveyGold Mobile application to collect responses to your survey by engaging respondents in-person, face-to-face. Distributing the survey and collecting responses is a breeze. All you need to make this happen is the SurveyGold application and a Premium or Ultimate subscription. How You Use the SurveyGold Application
How Your Field Surveyors Use SurveyGold Mobile
You have distributed a paper-based form using SurveyGold and you have collected a large set of completed paper questionnaires. At first it might appear that the only way to get those responses entered into SurveyGold is to have one person sit down and manually enter the responses one-at-a-time into the SurveyGold application. While this is one way to do it, there is an easier way if you get other people involved. The following tip describes an inexpensive and efficient way to allow others to assist you in doing data entry for large numbers of paper-based survey responses. The techniques described herein also work well for multiple phone interviewers conducting repeated over-the-phone surveys. Step 1 - Create the Online Survey Form
Step 2 - Distribute the Online Survey FormDistribute your online survey form to any number of people performing data entry for you. There are two options for distributing your online survey:
Step 3 - Enter Responses Provide each data entry person with a portion of the stack of paper survey forms to enter. For each paper form, have them access the online survey form and perform the following actions:
Step 4 - Collect ResponsesWhen you are ready to view the results in your SurveyGold application, simply perform the Update Activity action in the Home tab. This automatically downloads the submitted online survey responses from SurveyGold Online Services and imports them into your SurveyGold application whereby you can view and analyze the results.
