Deactivate a Question

When a recruiter creates a new question it is automatically activated and available for use on a questionnaire. Questions cannot be deleted, they can only be deactivated. Deactivated questions cannot be added to a questionnaire.

When a question attached to a questionnaire is deactivated, it is not removed from the questionnaire. To remove a deactivated question from a questionnaire, you must edit the questionnaire and manually remove the questionnaire.

Deactivating a question does not deactivate the question within questionnaires that have been associated with requisitions. Recruiters can remove questions from a questionnaire that is associated with a requisition.

To remove a question from a questionnaire that has been associated with a requisition

• Remove the questionnaire from the requisition.
• Edit the questionnaire and remove the question.
• Reassign the questionnaire to the requisition.

To deactivate an existing question

1. Go to Primary Navigation Bar > Admin > Questionnaires. The Questions panel displays.
2. Locate the question on the Questions page.
3. Select Deactivate from the Actions drop-down list. A message appears confirming the question was deactivated and a red X appears next to the question on the Questions page.
4. You can also deactivate questions in bulk by selecting the check box in the header row and selecting Deactivate from the Actions drop-down list.
