Question-Specific Comments for Assessment Users

In addition to adding Reviewer comments, you can also add question-specific comments for Assessment Portal users to see. These comments are in-line at the question level, and they are intended to request feedback regarding specific questions from the Assessment submitter. Once added, your individual comments can be edited or removed. The Assessment cannot be in an Accepted or Denied state while managing question-specific comments.

Add Question-Specific Comments

While reviewing an assessment, each question includes an Add Comments option.

To add a new comment:

Click Add Comments, located below the question, which will display a text box to enter a comment.

Note: If a comment has already been added, the text box is available to enter a comment. Additionally, there is a Hide Comments / Show Comments toggle option to hide or show comments while reviewing.
Enter a comment. (The character limit for comments is 4000.)
Click Save Comments.

The comment will appear with your name, a time stamp of when it was added, as well as icons to either edit or remove.

Edit or Delete Question-Specific Comments

After entering a comment, you can either edit or delete it.

Note: You can only edit or delete your own comments. This is indicated by the display of your name, as well as an edit and remove icon. You will not have the ability to modify or remove other reviewers' comments. Additionally, comments can be edited one at a time.
