Automating Links to Records Within the Question Library

When editing a question in the Question Library, users can automatically link records - like Controls, Actions and Risks - from workflows they have access to. These pre-linked records will automatically appear in any new questionnaire that includes the question, saving time and ensuring consistency.

 

How It Works

  1. Navigate to the Question Library.

  2. Select or search for the question you want to edit.

  3. In the individual question setup page, scroll to the section titled Related Records.

  1. You’ll see a table that allows you to link records from different workflows (e.g., Actions, Findings, Exceptions), provided you have access.
    • Each row in the table corresponds to a record that can be linked.

    • Tabs help you switch between workflows.

  2. Select the records you want to link to the question and click Link Records.

 

What Happens Next?

Once records are linked in the Question Library:

  • Any new questionnaire that includes the question will automatically display the linked records in the question block.

  • These records become readily accessible to Reviewers during assessments, supporting faster and more informed decision-making.

 

Tips and Best Practices

  • Ensure that the records you link are timeless or generally applicable, since they’ll appear in every future questionnaire using that question.

  • Only users with appropriate workflow access can link records from that workflow.

  • If a record becomes outdated or irrelevant, you can update the question in the library to remove or replace the link.
