Hey there,

as I am implementing Quotas in my survey, I see that the ending is pre-generated like attached. Is it possible to change the text by myself? If yes, is there also the possibility to change other ending pages, like survey completion or screen-out page?

Looking forward to your answer

Cheers

This is the default behavour if there are no explicit ‘survey exit’ elements.

If you want to control redirection after completion, screening and multiple invitaiton streams you shoujld place explicit ‘survey omplete’ elements at the various points in your survey.

Then after publishing create an invitation under deply→invitations. You can change the end message or place a url to redirect respondents who complete, are screened out or are over quota.

When sending ou invitations, use the invitation specific url.

Thank you for your answer!

Ok, I understand that I should put “Survey exits” elements in. But how can I connect them with the quota, like what should I write into the display condition? Since I want that only if the quotas are reached, the “Survey exits” element is active.

You don’t need to.  
In your case you don’t appear to have any segments so publish your survey then set your quota for the ‘unclassified segment’.

In the case you define segments, aka strata, all the segments you define will appear in the live summary screen. You can then adjust the quotas there for each segment.

When a respondent is assigned to a segment - the quotas for that segment are checked and if over, they are redirected out of the survey to whereever you decide to send them.

This method is used as segment assignment is often only ‘discovered’ some way through the survey - it’ may be demographics, it may be answering a consistency question wrong several times.

A respondent can also belong to multiple segments. If they are a assigned to any segment that is over quota they will be screened out as over quota.

Ok, thank you for answer! So am I understand right, that every participant is per default in the unclassified segment and then gets _additionally_ another segment (when my defined segment properties are fullfilled)?

Does this mean that the unclassified segment “contents” **all participants** regardless whether they are in a segment or not?

Sort of.  
The actual logic is all respondents are unclassified as they enter the survey. If the unclassified quota has been met, they will be rejected. As this happens before any segment assignment the unclassified is effectively an overall quota.
