It is important to put new entries in the correct place in the entry list on the Main window.  Each entry is given a sequence number to show the order.

When the questionnaire is printed, or when data is input, all the entries are shown in the order they appear on the Main window (sequence number order).

Randomisation can be used to alter the order of entries during input.  This is done with Program entries, see Randomise questions.

No entry can refer to entries which are further down in the questionnaire except for question routing text; all other references must be to entries which appear before.

See Entry details window, Settings tab

IMPORTANT: entries must be positioned after any questions to which they refer, but before any entries in which they are referenced or applied.
