Create New Question

Click Create New Question to create a new compliance question. See Compliance Question Bank - Add Question.

Important Note: Questions cannot be deleted from the question bank. In addition, once a question is created, the text of the question cannot be modified. If a change is needed to the question text, then the best practice is to inactivate the existing question and create a new question with the desired text.

Default compliance questions are the standard Office of Federal Contract Compliance Program questions.

Edit Default Questions

The content and response choices for default questions cannot be modified. Only the active status can be modified.

Edit Active Status

The active status can be modified by clicking the Edit icon for the question. When a default question is inactivated, the question is no longer available for use when creating, editing, and copying application workflows, requisition templates, and job requisitions. If the question is currently being used in a workflow, template, or requisition, the question can be inactivated but remains in the workflow until the question is removed. Once removed, the inactive question can no longer be re-added until the question is re-activated.

Note: The default response for all questions is "Please Select." This response displays to applicants but is not visible or editable when configuring questions.
