# Edit Base Assessments
This page will provide you with instructions on how to edit existing Base Assessment records in Paradigm.
{% hint style="danger" %}
**WARNING**:
* When editing or updating base assessments, any changes made will not filter down to any scheduled units previously created. Any historical scheduled units will not be affected nor updated by any changes to the base unit.
* The changes you will make will only apply to the scheduled units using the assessments that you just edited that are scheduled after you've made the changes.
{% endhint %}
