Add Grouping/Versioning Functionality ----> Allows User Self-Customization

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Currently, admin users cannot create surveys themselves within Envizi.  They must supply an Excel-based survey template to IBM, who then create the survey, on the client's behalf.  I have been informed that the reason for this is that IBM must ensure that surveys cannot be modified after deployment or between iterations (e.g., annual, quarterly, monthly).

A better approach would be to place different iterations of the same exact survey within a survey group or make each iteration a version of the same survey.  Within that group, the survey cannot be modified after initial deployment, thereby preserving the integrity and consistency of the underlying responses.  If a copy were made and modified, it would be come a new survey in a new group, completely independent of the original.

If this were done, it would allow IBM to make survey construction client-facing and self-serve, without running the risk of getting inconsistent data.

    Thanks for raising the enhancement request for IBM Envizi.

    We do have a future planned project to roll out a self-serve survey builder which would allow users to create surveys by themselves, including creating new surveys from scratch, making copies of existing surveys and controlling survey visibilities. This would form part of the Surveys and Assessment module in Envizi.

    The timeline of the project is yet finalised and we will provide an update here when it is progressed.
