number of complitions for quota could be set bigger than sample size

[Alex]

in quotarow.php it's possible to set any value for number of complitions , EVEN NEGATIVE

guess requires some DB table field setting ajustment and extra querry/comparison/evaluation for sample count

currently fixed with adding "artificial" limits to input field attributes:
<input name="completions" id="completions" min="0" max="1000"size="6" maxlength="6" style="width:6em;" required type="number">

You are right Alex - quota completions are not currently validated.

I think for the mainline it would be best if no artificial limits were imposed as this could be misleading. As applying quotas is a bit of an "Advanced" feature and the inputted result is displayed in the quota reports, I think for now it will be fine to leave unvalidated until a meaningful validation function is implemented (such as maximum available records)

That's it ! - validation ... Totally forgotten this word, lol :-)))

That's a good puzzle - validation function for quota values. Was thinking of it too, but it's not so obvious, requires some case/conditon modeling.
As to "complex_quota" update - current logic (as far as I understood) is: Set quota value - set questions restrictions - set sample restrictions - apply Quota (smth like limit N cases where {X} question restrictions have {Y}sample restrictions).

Would be nice to have some short wiki for current quota instrument especially for conditional logic that might be realized with it .

Thanks,
