Why some "responses in progress" are classified as finished despite not being completed? | XM Community
Skip to main content
Good morning, I come to you because I have a question about the analysis of survey responses.

The question concerns the division of respondents into "recorded responses" and "responses in progress". Exporting data I have seen that some answers are classified as finished although the percentage of completion is less than 100%. In some cases this is because the time available for responses in progress is expired but, in other cases, the answer is recorded as finished even if the time interval to complete it is still open.

Have any of you faced any similar problem? How did you solve it?



Thank you in advance for your answers,



Claudio
@ claudio-DT4B, Some of these can be partial response. where, Finished = 1 will give you the data for a respondent who has completed the survey and Finished = 0 will give you the partial complete data (i.e. if you are recording partial complete let's say in a week time then system will move such partial complete record to recorded record.



Please refer to this documentation, to understand the dataset of the standard variable:

The partial complete setting is available under survey option:

You will have to export the data in csv (or any other format) to do the analysis on actual completes vs drop-out.
