I was playing around Grouped Attestations especially since this allows Different Answers to be provided which enables to send a bunch of Controls in a Questionnaire format.
It seems however that the grouping requires the same Attestation Types to be used for entire Grouped Attestation? If there are different attestations types, different Grouped Attestations are created.
Is there something I am missing? It would be a missed opportunity if I end up having to send multiple Grouped Attestations instead of multiple Attestations.
EDIT: it seems like the Metric Type is defined by Default so it should be possible to change that Default Criteria or remove it all together.

Hi,
As per my understanding we can only provide response for grouped attestation which has similar question into it.
So yes you will need separate groups for different type of questionnaires.
Thanks,

Hi,
Grouped attestations can be used for different questions (controls) as long as they have the same Attestation Type.

One possible explanation seems to be that the Grouped Attestation form uses Control description as Headers and Attestation Type as a Variable that is recalled to be displayed after each Header - hence only possible to have one single Attestation Type.
A better Grouped Attestation form would therefore be one where both the Control Description and Attestation Type are being looked up for every Control on the form.
Since I am not a developer this is slightly beyond my knowledge 😉
