if over and if none

The if over and if none tags allow for customizing how quotas route a respondent that does not qualify for any of the quota buckets.

1. Please enter you age below. 
type: integer 
range: 1-120

AGE. Age quotas 
type: quotas 
if over: quotafull
if none: nonqual
1. twenties {if $Q1 >= 20 and $Q1 <= 29} 
2. thirties {if $Q1 >= 30 and $Q1 <= 39} 
3. fourties {if $Q1 >= 40 and $Q1 <= 49}

2. What is your ZIP code?
type: uszip5

startgroup: quotafull
condition: never

We're sorry, we have already collected enough responses that are similar to yours.

endsurvey

endgroup: quotafull

startgroup: nonqual
condition: never

We're sorry, you have not qualified to take this survey.

endsurvey

endgroup: nonqual

In the example above, a respondent that does not qualify for any of the quota buckets in QAGE will be routed to the "nonqual" group, and a respondent that only qualifies for buckets that are full will be routed to the "quotafull" group. Neither will see Q2.

Details

• if over defines the point to which the respondent will route if they have an "Over quota" status.
• if none defines the point to which the respondent will route if they have a "Terminate" status.
• if over and if none can be used individually or together. 
• The point defined in if over or if none can be a label, page label, group name, or 'NEXT.'
• 'NEXT' will allow the respondent to continue and complete the survey even if they fail to qualify for a quota.
