Configure Yes/No question scores and decisions

You can assign weighted scores to Yes/No questions in your template. The scores are used to determine the decision shown to the user in your Decision question.

For more information on question types, see The toolbox.

Prerequisites

You have a global role that has the Assessments global permission.

Steps

  1. Go to the template gallery and open a template, or create a new template.
  2. Add Yes/No questions to the template, or work with the existing Yes/No questions.
    You can also use Yes/No with Justification questions.
  3. For the relevant Yes/No questions, specify the following properties:
    Property

    Description

    Title

    The question or statement.

    Example "Does the processing activity present a high level of risk for the rights and freedoms of the concerned data subjects?"

    Score

    The score for the question or statement.

    Note The score is added to the total if the user responds "Yes" to the question. If the user responds "No", the score is ignored.

  4. In a Decision question, specify in the following properties:
    Property

    Description

    Title

    The question that appears in the final decision. Consider the fact that the decision value shown in the final decision will be "Yes" or "No".

    This should be in the form of a question. If the score threshold is met, the value returned is "Yes". If not, the value returned is "No".

    Example "Is a DPIA required for the Business Process asset?"

    Score threshold

    The limit at, or beyond, which the Decision question returns the value "Yes".
