  4. To reorder a question's criteria, access the question's menu and select Criteria. Reorder the same as in step 3.

Assessment editing rules

These rules are presented to help prevent problems such as setting the dates incorrectly and rendering the assessment unusable.

Example
An assessment is unusable when you save it with the Submission End Date in the past or the Submission Start and Submission End dates matching each other. In this case, the only remedy is to export the assessment, import it, fix the dates, and then delete the original assessment. All submissions for the original are lost in this process.

This table defines the rules that govern the modification of assessment elements. These changes are made without system warnings.
