Stop moving ahead if constraint fails

[bbmahapatra]

Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to ensure data collector not able to move further until s/he corrects the error resulting from constraint message. I know that I can write a condition in the relevant of next question. But, if there are so many questions or you want to display some questions together then using relevant may not be very helpful. Therefore, I am wondering if there is some alternative way to do this.

Welcome to the community, @bbmahapatra! Maybe you could use this approach as discussed previously:

Validate a date question with a select one question

Welcome to the community, @Bushra! You could do it as outlined in the image shared below: In the survey tab of your XLSForm: [Image 1] In the choices tab of your XLSForm: [Image 2] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when the date is within the range [Image 3] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when the date is outside the range [Image 4] Reference XLSForm: Constraint.xlsx (12.3 KB)

Thank you @Kal_Lam. I tried this as well but it still allows me move ahead and allow entry in other question. What I want is that one should not be able to move further, till the error is corrected.

@bbmahapatra, did you try putting the note question type there with a mandatory response of yes? That should block you from proceeding when the constraint fails.
