When a questionnaire has a lot of similar content to a previously entered and verified questionnaire from that study, a copy of the questionnaire can be made in Archivist. The XML generated from the copy can then be imported to Archivist (see guidance on how to do this belowback into Archivist with a new prefix and questionnaire title (ask Becky or Hayley to make the copy). This saves a lot of time , as targeted changes can be made to the questionnaire rather than entering or reviewing and editing the content line-by-line; we can be confident that, when the content is the same, it does not need to be meticulously checked as the copied questionnaire has already been verified.

This method is ideal when there are only a handful small number of changes to be made.
Alternatively, the questionnaire can be scanned against the document that is being used for entry to ensure all the content is included and is in the correct order, making changes where needed. Similarly to parsed questionnaires, the content that is already included does not need to be checked as meticulously as content which has been entered from scratch, as because the content has been copied from a verified questionnaire. That is, the question literals, code list categories, etc. should be correct.
