Re-assessment

Re-assessment enables you to re‑issue a completed or approved assessment to the respondent for review and updates. The new assessment is automatically pre‑filled with responses cloned from the original submission, allowing the respondent to either retain their existing answers or modify them as needed before resubmitting. This ensures continuity of data while providing flexibility for corrections, updates, or additional input.

Purpose of Re-assessment

Re-assessment is useful when an already completed or approved assessment needs to be updated. Instead of filling out everything again, the reassessment feature generates a new version pre‑filled assessment with the respondent’s previous answers, allowing them to retain existing responses or update only where necessary.
This approach ensures efficiency, accuracy, and continuity, making assessments easier to maintain and more reflective of current circumstances.

Important:

  • Only Approved assessment can be used for re-assessment.
  • Approver and Owner can create and approve the assessment.
  • Roles such as Data Privacy Administrator, Data Protection Officer, and Chief Compliance Officer can serve as both approver and owner within the re-assessment process.
