The choice of assessment type Self-Assessment has the following effects:
Participants receive an invitation to take part in the assessment
Auditors are informed by participants upon completion.
Participants will see the questionnaire under Assigned Assessments
For the following description, we assume that you have created a questionnaire and set it to Active.
1 - General
Navigate to Assessments
Select the Create button
Select Self-assessment from the drop-down menu.
Name your assessment (Here: At the top, see ‘New assessments YYYY-MM-...)
Enter further data, for example
Scope of the assessment
Audited (or Further) organisational units
Due dates for data collection & report date
2 - Questionnaire
Click on From template to load an existing questionnaire into the assessment.
Theoretically, you can also create a new questionnaire here.
You can make changes to the questionnaire here, for example delete or add individual questions.
Making changes will not change the template.
3 - Responses
Now select a participant by clicking Create.
You can then add further participants by clicking Create
Note: Only participants who belong to the selected Audited (or Further) organisational units are displayed.
Then set the status of the assessment to In progress.
Participants are informed and process the questionnaire individually
The icon on Page 3 - next to the participant - shows whether the questionnaire has already been answered.
4 - Summary
If all responses have been received, you can now start the evaluation.
Set the status to In review
If you have created automated tasks in questionnaires, these will now be activated.
