Adding a new question

To add a question you will need to open:

1. Questions.csv

2. questiondescriptions.csv
   

In order to add a new question, you have to:

• Add a new row for the new question in the Question.CSV file (please bear in mind that the flow of the CSV file is the same as the assessment

• Create a new and unique question id 

• Use the same section id as the section you want the question to appear in

• Fill in at minimum:  question id, section id, question, attachment and answer type (you may need more information depending on type of question and conditionality)

• Make sure to amend any assessment numbering while adding extra questions so it shows properly once changed

• Open questiondescriptions.csv

• Copy the question id (from questions.csv) and past it into a new row in questionsdescriptions.csv

• Adjacent to the question id write in the question text

• Save both files as a Comma-separated values (.csv) file. Depending on the software you may need to export it as a .csv file. 

• Add the added questions information to the Changes Tracker spreadsheet and state scoring required (see example in Appendix 1 - an example table can be found here Changing question scoring )

• Send over to the Rizikon Support team and we apply the required scoring to the scoring algorithm
