Setting an embedded field to indicate the most recent survey-if retake as new response is used?

Question

We have fielded a survey, which is intended to be updated by respondents on an ongoing basis using a retake as new response link (desire to keep the history of response to analyze the changes over time). The rationale for the retake link is so that respondents can simply update the items that have changed rather than re-doing the entire survey each time. I would like to be able to flag/identify the most recent response for Qualtrics reporting purposes (include a filter for this field that only includes the most recent responses rather than the full history of responses). Any guidance/suggestions would be welcomed and much appreciated, including alternative strategies!

I have not tested the below, but the web service setup should be similar to this, change value wherever required"${e://Field/Q_R}" - This will give us the response id of previous response.

One of the possible way is to create an embedded data ("recent"). In survey flow before end of survey set 1. recent =1 and 2. using web service hit the update response API and set recent =0 for previous response. You can get the response Id of previous response from url
