If you have already added 10 questions to your intake and want to insert a new question between questions 5 and 6, navigate to question 5 and click on Add a Question Under Question 5. This will allow you to add a new question in the desired position without disrupting the existing sequence.

Configuring Data Points

Data points act as sub-questions that help the main question gather more specific details. Each data point provides context or an attribute related to the main question, guiding follow-up questions and refining the information collected.

You can fill in the details such as the Data Point and Description. In the Data Point field, specify the identifier or name for the data you want to collect. In the Description field, provide an explanation of what kind of information is expected.
