    Option to pre-populate the questionnaire with responses from a completed questionnaire (state is Complete).
    Important:
    If you have the TPR assessor [sn_vdr_risk_asmt.vendor_assessor] role, you can override the option that is specified in the questionnaire template while editing a questionnaire in the draft state.

    The entry in the Third-party portal notifies the third-party contact that responses were copied. The notification includes a link to the assessment that supplied the responses and its last updated date.

    • The responses are populated when the new questionnaire is submitted to the third-party contact.
    • The source questionnaire must be based on the same template as the current questionnaire.
    • The responses are populated from the most recently completed questionnaire.
    • Answers of the attachment, duration, and signature type aren’t copied.
    • The setting can’t be changed after the questionnaire is sent to the third party.

    To specify the maximum age for source questionnaires, configure the Maximum age for reusing responses sn_vdr_risk_asmt.max_age_for_questionnaire_reuse system property. See Configure TPRM properties.

    This option is only available when you create a questionnaire template using the Vendor Management Workspace.
