Adding comments to a field

A comment is a note that users can add to a field for additional context or information. Users with "View" permissions can check and enter comments to fields using the dedicated action.

• You can add multiple comments, but it's important to know that comments cannot be deleted or edited once added.
• When exporting study data in CSV or Excel formats, comments are included in a separate field.
• Note: Comments are not included when exporting using the SPSS option.
