Activation Console
Use the Activation Console to monitor questionnaire activation status. You can view pending and completed activations, and create activation history filters. The console has the following tabs:
Activation History tab: View the status of both pending and completed activations.
Filters tab: Options for filtering questionnaire activation history.
Settings tab: Options for configuring the Activation Console.
When the Activation Console is launched, an icon displays in the Windows taskbar. Whenever a questionnaire is submitted for activation, or completes activation, the icon provides relevant status notification messages. The notification messages include the survey URL link for each completed activation. For more information, see Settings tab.
Retaining client activation history after upgrading from UNICOM Intelligence 7
In UNICOM Intelligence 7, the activation client DDF folder is in:
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\Activate\
In UNICOM Intelligence 7.0.1 and later, the activation client DDF folder is in:
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\Activate\<data_collection_version_number>
To retain the UNICOM Intelligence 7 client activation history, all version 7 activation client MDD files (ClientActivationMessages.mdd, ClientActivationRequests.mdd, and ClientActivationUserInfo.mdd) and DDF files (ActivationMessages.ddf, ActivationRequests.ddf, and ActivationUserInfo.ddf) must be manually moved from the version 7 Activate directory to the Activate\<current_version> directory.
