Figure 1 - The Panel Utilities menu commands
The menu commands are as follows:
- Overview – provides general information on the selected panel (go to Overview for more information).
- Linked Projects - provides a Linked Projects list, which gives you an overview of all the projects that are linked to the panel (go to Linked Surveys for more information).
- Panel Portals – contains the commands you use to create and edit your Panel Portals (go to About Panel Portals for more information).
- Panel Activity Log – logs activity on the panel (go to Panel Activity Log for more information).
- Database Cleanup – removes deleted questions from the Panel database (go to Database Cleanup for more information).
- Survey Synchronization – initiates a new task that checks all surveys associated with the current panel, and updates the panel if/when there are changes. This is to keep the panel data up-to-date so samples can be selected appropriately. This task can (should) be made recurring so it occurs automatically (go to Survey Synchronization for more information).
- Flex Extensions - opens the "Extensions available..." list.
