Associating the assessment scores with the form elements
The left pane of the main CALM screen shows the assessment and its score
hierarchy and two mandatory variables, namely Time and Date which should
be associated with text edit controls in the form. (If you have multiple
forms for an assessment, then this time and date text boxes must be
in the first form, or in the cover page of the assessment).
Each document can have multiple pages (forms). So you can associate an
assessment score with a component ( like an edit field) or with a group
of components ( like a group of radio boxes). When a score is associated
with a form component its tree node becomes green (See below).
Select a score in the assessment maintenance tree and press Right mouse button
to show the popup menu as shown above. Select Associate from
the popup menu.
Now you need to click the right mouse button on the form
element (e.g. text edit field) or one of the form elements within
a logical group you want to associate this score. If you want to associate
a score with a logical group, then the score must have a corressponding list
of score codes,
otherwise you will get a warning message and not allowed to associate the
score with the logical group of components.
CALM uses the score code values for the selected score from the database
(or the offline new assessment) and by default assigns each form element
in the group to the possible score values in ascending order. You can change
the assignment order of the form elements by clicking and selecting from
the drop-down of the table cell under Associated Component column.
The security classification info is read from the database
even though you may be working on a new assessment, which is not persisted
to the database yet.
