I created a project under my account using my user name, and I deployed. But when enumerators submit their forms after completion of forms, the data is showing that I (my username) submitted the data. But I want it to show the names of the enumerators as set in the Kobocollect apk under ‘User & Device identity’. Please help how I can get through this?
Hi @rukudzo,
That is most likely because the enumerators are using your username to fill the forms.
- Do all of your enumerators have their own username?
- Did you share the form with them so they can add submissions?
- Did you share the information with QR code?
- Did you check this wonderful articles about the issue?

All the best,

Thanks @hakan_cetinkaya for your response.

The enumerators do have unique usernames (only in the data collection app [kobocollect]). But if you’re referring to kobotoolbox account usernames, they don’t have.
-
I did not share with them, since they do not have kobo accounts
-
No QR code was used, forms were shared by manually putting in the url in their respective tablets.
Thank you will also check the wonderful articles you referred to.
Much appreciation👏
Hi @rukudzo, can you make a test if giving them their own username solves your issue?
I think it might.

@hakan_cetinkaya Thanks. I realised that I had not toggled on the buttons for collecting metadata under the form settings. Once I did the issue got fixed.
Thank you once again.
