Once a questionnaire and dataset has been documented, it then goes through a process called mapping. This connects the documented questions to dataset variables, and both to topics.
...
For a normal variable enter the question name into Sources. This will auto-populate as you type, so the question can be selected from the drop-down list. More than one question can be mapped to a variable. Note: if there is already a topic applied to the variable, only those questions mapped to that topic, or no topic will appear in the dropdown list.
For a derived variable select Derived from the drop-down list under Type. Enter the variable name into Sources. This will auto-populate as you type, so the variable can be selected from the drop-down list. More than one variable can be mapped to the derived variable.
...
For sequences Whole sections of the questionnaire can be linked to a topic by adding a topic to a sequence. Note: This will only map questions were the direct parent is the sequence, if the question has a condition as their parent, this will not be mapped.
If there are questions which are already mapped to topics (either added or inherited) which are the first child of the sequence and they are all the same, then the sequence topic is available to update. Where the topics are not the same the option will not display. If you change the sequence topic it will change those first child questions to that, unless there is a conflict with the variable. Note, if you apply a topic to the sequence, it will display as 'saving' then 'saved' but yuu will need to refresh the page to see the topic display.
