New component IDs generation

If the changes you made to the form include changes to specific form components (that is, questions, sections, or categories), in addition to generating a new form version, the system may automatically generate new component IDs for these components.

New component IDs (and hence - also new form versions) are generated for the following scenarios:

  • When a new component is created or deleted

  • When an existing component is updated in any of the following ways:

    • Sections and Categories: Changes to the scoring method, base percentage, precision, baseline score or minimum score.

    • Sections and Categories: Changes to any of the viewing options, such as Hide Score, Enable Comment, Collapse, or Hide.

    • Questions: Changes to question type, baseline score, minimum score, score/answer values (including deleting an answer option or changing the numeric value of an existing answer option in a list of custom answers), defaults, or options (hide score/mandatory/enable comment/hide question/display question above answer/instructions appear above answer/enable reason).

    • Reason fields (if enabled): Changes to the reasons associated with questions

New Component IDs are NOT created for the following scenarios:
