I have four scenarios (A, B, C, and D) that participants will read and then answer some questions on. All four scenarios have the same amount of questions. At two different points in the survey I would like to present a scenario and half of its questions (e.g. A.1) and at another point of the survey I would like to present the others (A.2). I would like a random presentation of the initial scenario/items so that a participants will get a random order (e.g. D.1, B.1, A.1, C.1). However, in the second set of scenarios/items, I would like this to match the random presentation order of the first items (e.g. D.2, B.2, A.2, C.2). Is this possible?

After the first set of random blocks, set the embedded data to record the order. EG: Position 1= D.1, Position 2= B.1. Then use the survey flow to branch so that if Position 1 = A.1, Present block A.2. If Position 1= B.1, then present Block B.2.
