Setting up Custom Survey Groups

For anonymity purposes, to see survey results of a group of employees, you'll need at least 3 people - but let's say you want to see survey results for a specific group, and there aren't enough employees in that group to do so. Lattice allows you to create custom attributes to help combine different groups together that may be too small to meet this threshold.

For example, let's say the Sales and Marketing departments each have 2 employees. You might want to group those departments together, so you're able to see the new group's survey results.

Please note: Survey Groups need to be created before a survey is launched for the attribute to be pulled into results. 

How to Create a Survey Group

Step 1: Navigate to the Admin page found at the bottom of the discovery navigation. 

Step 2: Enter the "People" section in the secondary navigation and select "User attributes." 

Step 3: Click "Create custom attribute."

Step 4: Fill out the "Create new custom attribute" pop-out.

Choose "Multiple Choice" > Name the custom user attribute > Select the visibility > Enter the survey group names under "Options," i.e., "Sales and Marketing" > Repeat for other survey groups > Click the "Add attribute" button.

Step 5: Put employees into your new custom attribute in the employees' profiles or CSV upload.

Go into the employee's profile and choose the survey group from the "Survey Group" dropdown.

Step 4: Run your survey and then group results by your custom attribute.

In this example, we will use the custom attribute of "Survey Groups" to group results for the Sales & Marketing and Customer Success & Customer Support.
