Surveys

To add or edit a quality survey from the Profiles/Library Manager, click the Add or Edit button on the Surveys page. The window also will be displayed when you double-click one of the surveys displayed on this page.

A survey contains a list of requirements that are believed to influence the success of an analysis project. Team members can use the survey to rate each analysis project with respect to these criteria. You can copy a survey from the active library to any analysis plan in an RCM++ project.

Note: Unlike many of the other settings stored in the active library and managed via the Profiles/Library Manager, the surveys are not stored in the project properties for individual analysis projects. Rather, you can use any survey from the active library on your computer for any project that you may be working with and it is possible to use different surveys for different analysis plans in the same project.

Each survey is identified by a name (required) and short description (optional). In addition, you can define any number of requirements in the list. The requirements will be displayed in the analysis plan interface and reports in the order in which they appear in this table. To change the order of existing requirements, use the Move Up or Move Down buttons. To insert a new requirement above an existing one, select the existing requirement and click Insert Row. To delete a description, select the row and click Delete Row.

The Copy Existing button allows you to select another RCM++ library and copy selected requirements to replace the ones in the current window.

Clear deletes all requirements from the current survey.

Spelling checks the spelling of the text fields within the window.

The status bar at the bottom of the window displays the date/time of the last change to the survey and the user who made the change.
