The primary key assessment_id is a revision_id inherited from cr_revisions. Note, the CR provides two main types of entities -- cr_items and cr_revisions. The latter are where sequential versions -of the former go, while cr_items is where the "current" version of -an entity can be stored, where unchanging elements of an entity are -kept, or where data can be cached.
