What's new

Date and signature fields on activities can now be set to clear automatically when a learner is given a new attempt, so each attempt is signed and dated afresh.

Auto-clear signatures & dates

Who is this for?

Anyone managing reassessments who needs a fresh learner and assessor sign-off on each new attempt.

Why it matters

Every new attempt carries a signature and date that match when the work was completed, giving you an accurate, defensible record for audit. Everything else in the attempt carries over as normal.

Key features

  • Field-level control – Tick Clear Field on New Attempt on individual signature and date fields, so you decide exactly which fields reset.
  • Keep what should carry over – Leave the setting off for fields that should be retained, such as a workplace supervisor’s signature.
  • Learner and assessor signatures – Works for both learner and assessor signature fields, plus any date fields.
  • Consistent across new attempts – Fields clear the same way whether the new attempt is duplicated or blank.
  • Clear prompts – Cleared fields are flagged on the new attempt, so learners and assessors know exactly what needs to be completed again.
  • Opt-in by default – The setting is off until you turn it on, so existing activities are unchanged.

How to get started

  1. Open the activity and edit the current revision.
  2. Select the Signature Pad or Date Picker field you want to reset.
  3. In Field settings, under General, tick Clear Field on New Attempt.
