Set multiple-choice flagged responses
Learn how to set multiple-choice responses as flagged responses via the web app and the mobile app.
What are flagged responses?
Flagged responses are multiple-choice responses marked to highlight areas needing improvement within your organization. By setting up flagged responses in your template, you can trigger actions or require evidence to identify key areas of interest in your inspection workflows, making them easier to track and address.
You can set multiple-choice flagged responses in the two following ways:
Custom response sets (recommended): Each response in a custom response set can be marked as flagged. Changes apply to all questions that use the custom response set.
Questions: Flagged responses can be set at the question level, overriding any existing flagged responses from a custom response set. You can also set responses from a Global Response Set as flagged at the question level. Changes made only apply to the specific question.
