- The most recent version of the PDFs should be used for entry and verification.
- Include the correct sequence and study wave in the qc/qi labels.
- Create specific numeric response domains where possible. Search for the question in the XML to see if there is a min and max. If no "min" and "max" shown in xml file, then use "How many". See example 1 below.

- Do not add questions or sections based on "Telephone mode"
