extended questionnaire

Archibus V.23.2 introduced the extended questionnaire feature, which is used in the Compliance and Maintenance applications. Like the original questionnaire system, extended questionnaires enable you to define a series of questions that you can present to your staff and store their responses in database tables. However, extended questionnaires have additional features:

Extended questionnaires:

collect data in tabular format that can be reported, analyzed, and searched
present follow-up questions that branch depending on response.
provide response options of multiple choice, yes/no, free-form text, attached photos or documents, counts, lookups, and measurements
specify automatic follow-up workflow to be triggered by designated responses
can be administered any number of times
can be designated as optional or required

Extended questionnaires and answers are stored in their own set of tables that include "ex" in their table name to distinguish them from the questionnaire tables of the original questionnaire system. For example, questionnaire_ext, quest_question_ext, question_ext, quest_answer_ext, and so on.
