IEG Configuration

The root entity must be called Application.
After creation of the root entity, there is a hook point that allows population of entity values before the script starts. The event raised is AssessmentInstanceEvents.prePopulateDatastore ; AssessmentInstance and RootEntity are passed to the event as parameters.
For role based assessments, a Person entity is used to store the answers entered by each of the people in the assessment. IEG uses the Person entity to loop through a list of people displaying an image for each person at the top of the screen. The following attributes are automatically populated on the Person entity before the script starts.

For group based assessments, a Group entity is used to store the answers entered during the script. The Group entity must have a groupName attribute which is automatically populated upon initiation of the script.
An optional Assessment entity can also be specified in the schema. If it is specified, the following attributes will be automatically populated (if defined):

Table 3. Assessment Attributes
Name	Type	Description
initialAssessmentInd	IEG_BOOLEAN	Indicates if the script execution is an initial assessment or a reassessment. For reassessments the user may be given the option to select the factors that are to be reassessed.
assessmentInstanceID	IEG_INT64	The identifier of the assessment instance currently being executed. This can be used to retrieve any additional information about the assessment.
assessmentDefinitionID	IEG_INT64	The identifier of the assessment definition record contains all the configuration information about the assessment.

After the Assessment and either the Person or Group entities are populated, an event is raised which allows for the population of further entity attributes before the script is started. The event raised is AssessmentInstanceEvents.postPopulateDatastore ; the AssessmentInstance and RootEntity are passed to the event as parameters.
