After testing this change—Show the responsible process role.—ask people who encountered the changed arrangement whether this original issue still occurred or did not occur: “Pending orders omit their current owner.” Invite a concrete explanation, including none or not applicable. Compare participant context and sample differences; a before-and-after survey alone does not establish causation.
Choose the response format
Make room for the explanation.
| Question | Suggested format | What to preserve |
|---|---|---|
| What did the status mean? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for state meaning. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |
| Which pending step was unclear? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for pending step. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |
| What contact route was missing? | Optional free text; none or not applicable accepted | Read for contact route. Keep the specific explanation in the respondent’s own words rather than converting it into an unexplained overall satisfaction score. |
Make questions optional where appropriate. If you add a rating scale, label its endpoints, keep one idea per question, and retain a follow-up for reasons. These examples are not a validated measurement instrument.

A useful starting point

Clarify purchase-order states. These prompts examine state meaning, pending step, contact route. Choose only questions your audience can answer. A missing detail can be answered with none; do not assume an issue occurred.
If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.
