How to program that keeps track of the number of times we visit an enumerator?

Hi @cp622
I worked on your form differently to account for the following

1. The call attempt number is auto computed (@wroos I don’t know whether this answers your previous question )
2. Date and time of first attempt are automatically recorded
3. Subsequent attempt dates can only be equal or greater to previous and not in future
4. An attempt cannot be made within an hour of the previous attempt (new to your form)

See the form here Recording_CallAttempts1.xlsx (13.8 KB)

The screenshot for the excel is here

Use the earlier instructions given by @Kal_Lam to execute in data collection

@Kal_Lam

Data Collection:

• Open the blank form. Call the respondent. If the respondent is not available, fill you blank form (marking first attempt was made).
• Press the save button (numbered as 1 in the image below) and then press the back key (numbered as 2 in the image below):

• You should now see a dialogue box with Save Changes and Ignore Changes .

• Press `Save Changes’.
• You should now see a list of forms being saved under the Edit Saved Form . This should include both the complete forms as well as the incomplete forms. It’s difficult to distinguish between the same unless and until you provide a specific name for the completed ones. However, an easier way to solve this problem is by looking at the Send Finalized Form .

Sync all the completed forms with the KoBoToolbox server by entering the Send Finalized Form . Those forms that were synced with the KoBoToolbox server now shows up in the View Sent Form while those incomplete forms are seen in Edit Saved Form .

• You could now go back to complete the incomplete survey by selecting the form from within the `Edit Saved Form’.
