Random sample guaranteed to hit each employee w/ item cap?

[sidedave]

Hello.

I'd like to run a random sample search which will return a minimum of 1 message per employee while also permitting a configurable item cap. From the documentation, neither a guaranteed sample nor a statistical sample meet my requirements.

- Guaranteed sample will return a minimum of 1 message per employee, but has no cap

- Statistical sample has a configurable cap, but will not necessarily return a minimum of 1 message per employee

Anyone know of a tricky workaround?

Thanks ahead of time!

Hi,

I tested in my lab and found following can be the way for your problem.

If you create "Guaranted Sample Search" you get option to "Absolute limit".

Absolute limit

Sets an upper limit on the total number of search results to add to the review set. This option takes precedence over any values that you set in the Percentage box and Minimum items per employee box.
