Launch Options for Unit Assessments

When you launch a unit assessment (at the end of the New Unit Assessment wizard), all surveys within the assessment are launched. The Launch options section on the final page of the New Unit Assessment wizard contains settings that will affect all of those surveys. Let’s see what each of these settings does.

...

If you want to launch individual surveys using different settings, then you should not use the Launch button at the end of the New Unit Assessment wizard. Instead, you should publish the assessment, then go back in and individually launch each survey.

Survey options for individual unit surveys

If you choose to publish an assessment instead of launching at the time of creation, you can come back later and launch the individual surveys (see also: HOWTO: Launch a survey ). The survey launch options look very similar to the launch options for the entire assessment.

...

All of the settings are the same as explained above. The difference is that on this dialog window, you are only specifying launch settings for this one survey.

Launch Options for Application Assessments

The launch options for application assessments are a subset of those for unit assessments.

...

  1. Import previous survey responses: If you enable this setting, the survey will be are prefilled with data from the last time the same questions were asked about the same application within the same Assessment Series. Both the answers and clarifications will be imported. This can greatly expedite your assessment process by allowing participants to reuse their answers from last time. Oftentimes, little or nothing has changed since last time. However, there is a risk with this setting that participants may be inclined to speed through the survey without really thinking about the questions.

  2. Unit role notifications: Use these checkboxes to indicate whom within each unit should be notified of the survey launch via email. This will affect people who have roles in the unit that owns the application being assessed. Use the slider control to enable or disable the notifications altogether.
