RC Workshop Report - Setting up new Google form

Updated on

These directions describe how to make a new yearly Workshop Report form for the TLs to report to the RCs.  In making this guide, next year's forms are now available at the following links:

Be sure to remove "Someone New".

1. Create a new form.
  • Steps:
    • Copy the current form.
    • Rename the Title.
    • Edit it with revised names.
  • Rename the file to match the next year.
  • Click on the Title and rename
  • Click on the names and revise.  
    • If there is a new name, add to the bottom of the list.
    • Then drag to alphabetize.
2. Copy Response Template & Modify.
  • COPY TEMPLATE
  • MODIFY THE RESPONSE FORM
    • Arrange the names on the tabs in the same order as on the form including adding any new names.
    • Add the following script to the A1 cell: =QUERY('Form Responses 1'!1:5702, "select * where C='Scripko' order by A DESC")
    • Be sure to take out 'Scripko' and substitute the new person's name.
3. Edit the script for any new names or modifications to names/emails of the RCs
  • Go to the script editor under the Tools menu.
    • Find where the new person should be in the script.
    • Copy the person's info above it and paste below.
    • Modify the name and email for the new person.
    • Be sure to remove any names no longer having a tab.
    • SAVE.
5. Modify Response Form
  • Rename the Form to: Form Responses 1 (This is the name of the first tab at the bottom.)
  • Move email column to Column P.
  • Add an empty column after A and I making column B & J empty.
6. Run & Test the script.

6.1. Check the Script Project Name and edit it if desired.

6.2. Run the script.

  • This is the way a Script run should work:
    • Run --> Run function --> send Emails
    • View --> Execution transcript
    • Execution should be successful

6.3. Possible Issues

7. Set up eMail triggers
  • When you are in the script code:
    • Go to edit --> Current project's triggers
    • Click "Click here to add one now."
    • Set your script code.
