When entering data, a form will show incomplete due to one of the following reasons:
- A variable marked as 'required' in the setup does not have a value
- By default, an asterisk is displayed next to 'required' variables (does not apply to subject portal)
- The asterisk can be turned off in the project setup. The variable is still considered 'required'.
- A 'required' variable that is disabled or hidden will not affect completion status
- A variable that is a heading or note is marked as 'required'
- This is usually a setup error
- There are times that a note may display and intentionally be set up as 'required' to keep the encounter incomplete
- The dependency/skip pattern has an error, for example, hiding a variable and then making it enabled. The variable is hidden and not visible when entering data, however, since it is enabled it will affect completion status
