My company is looking to create an ODK survey that is time dependent. I
know that the survey can collect meta data such as start and end time, but
is there a way to constrain questions by time? For instance, once it
becomes 3mins after the survey is started a certain group of questions
constrained by time will be skipped if unanswered. If so, what would this
look like in the .xls contraint box? Any suggestions are appreciated.

we are looking for precisely the same feature - constraining the time for a set of question for our research. Can I ask you how has this post ended - has the feature been developed or shall we hire sbdy or can we develop it ourselves?
thanks,

Yaw is correct, the feature has not been developed. I ended up solving our
problem by restructuring the survey into slightly different sets with
complicated skip patterns and repeats that we were then able to compare to
the meta data collected for start and end times of the survey. This allowed
us not to constrain the questions by time, but to see on average how many
question sets could be answered in a specific amount of time. In our
situation this worked well as a round about solution as we were developing
an U.S.S.D. SMS campaign. This allowed us to very cheaply prototype and
test our questionnaire using ODK to find out how many question sets and
could be comfortably answered within two minutes which was the time limit
for the U.S.S.D. menu.
Not sure if the same concept could be applied to your situation, but I hope
this response helps.
Best,

Hi Sean,
ODK doesn't do this and it'd be a fair bit of work to add. Your best

i developed xml by writing hard code.hope i will able to solve the problem using some complex formula.please give me requirement i am interested to work on it.
