Connecting the Objects of an Answer to an Assessed Object
HOPEX can be used to answer a question by connecting HOPEX objects. For more information on this configuration, see Connecting HOPEX objects.
It can be useful to connect the object given in response to the assessed object.
Example: the respondent may want to attach an issue to the question. It is important here to be able to connect the issue to the assessed control.
To connect the answer object to the assessed object:
1. Be sure you have specified the object type to be assessed in the properties page (Assessable Objects tab):
• of the questionnaire template
• or the question group
• or the question
2. In the properties page of the question, specify the Referenced MetaClass ("issue" in our example).
3. In the properties page of the question, in the Link Answered Object, select the name of the link in question.

This field lists the possible MetaAssociations between the MetaClass of the question and the referenced MetaClass specified. The questionnaire template needs to be linked to the MetaClass through the MetaClass/Assessment Instrument link.
