Answer
Questionnaires are only validated if they are shared with a Customer, who has funded the questionnaire or if you have made payment on the platform. The validation process typically takes up to 5 working days.
Background
If your questionnaire has not been validated and it has been longer than 5 days, this most likely means that no payment has made for the SAQ 5.0 Rating, report and results.
Steps
To check the status of your questionnaire and the validation process:
- Sign in to your NQC account.
- Find the questionnaire that you want to check the status of on your Dashboard (use filters and search if needed).
- If the questionnaire is shown with a 'VALIDATING' status, it means that the validation process has not yet finished. Please note that validation typically takes up to 5 working days.
- Once validation is complete, the questionnaire status on your Dashboard will change to 'COMPLETED' and you will be able to view your questionnaire rating and results.
- If your questionnaire remains in 'VALIDATING' for longer than 5 working days, this usually means that no payment has been received for the SAQ 5.0 rating, report, and results.
