You can display extra columns in the interview/call list. These columns will show the survey questions for each interview/call in the list. This can be useful when you need to filter interviews/calls according to survey question (variable) values.
Note that this applies only for questions that are marked as "Available as CATI filter". Questions can be marked as "Available as CATI filter" in Forsta Authoring, refer to the separate Professional Authoring documentation for details.
Added columns remain available in the Call Management dialog even if the dialog is closed and reopened again. However the columns will be available only until the current CATI Supervisor session is ended.
Variable columns are added using the Add Question page. To display question columns in the interview/call list:
- Click the Add Question button on the toolbar.
- On completion click Save.
The Add Question page opens.
Figure 1 - Adding a variable column with the help of the Add Question page

Click the Refresh button above the grid to display the most recent question list.
The Select Questions page closes and the interview/call list in the Call Management window is refreshed and the selected columns are added to the interview/call list.
Added columns will remain available until the current session is closed.
