This form defines a question's position within a particular survey.

Aptify recommends that you use a surveys management tool to add, edit, and delete Survey Questions rather than work directly with Survey Question records. The surveys management tools available are the Survey Panel View in the Aptify web interface or the Surveys Administration dashboard in the Aptify Desktop client.

This tab specifies the Answer Logic used by the Question if applicable. If the user does not select any of the answers that appears in the Answers Logic tab, the user is directed to the Next Question specified on the General tab.
