About working with queries

The Queries page displays details about a query and allows you to enter an answer.

Note: You must be a member of a query group in order to work with any queries generated by a user in the group (for example, to answer or close queries).

The Queries page has several main sections:

• Current Data Value—Displays the current value of the data item. For more information, see Query—Data Value section.
• Query Action—Provides a list of options (as buttons) depending on the type of query you selected. For more information, see Query—Action section.
• Query History—Provides access to the query history. To view the query history, select the radio button next to the query of interest in the Current Data Value section.
• Context buttons—Appear at the bottom of the content pane.
  • Create Query—Available for users who have the right to create a query.
  • Submit—Appears if you selected a Query Action button. It submits either a data change or query change, depending on which button you selected in the Query Action section. After the submission, the application leaves the Queries page, and navigates back to the page you came from (the Query Listing page or the CRF).
  • Return—Navigates you back to the page you came from (the Query Listing page or the CRF).

You can answer queries by changing the data on the Queries page, or by viewing the query and then navigating to the Data Values page to change the data.

• For manual queries, when you answer a query by changing the data, the Automatically answer manual queries configuration option is ignored and the query is automatically answered by the data change. The Automatically answer manual queries option is used in every other part of the InForm application, including all other data entry and update screens, and PFImport.
• For automatic queries, if an associated rule passes after a data change, the query is closed; otherwise, it remains open.
