How do I get started?

Click Get started, then use Proto to configure Compliance Management for your business. Begin with one organization, one business unit, a scoped assessment and a control whose owner can supply test evidence.

What belongs in an assessment?

Record the subject, owner, business unit, period, scope statement and planned tests. Link tests, obligations, findings and supporting attachments to that assessment.

How are risks connected to controls?

A risk belongs to a business unit and has a named owner, likelihood, impact and scale version. A control links to that risk and has its own owner, description and effective date.

How do testers record an exception?

The Tester records a control test with sample size, exception count, result and evidence reference. A finding then describes the issue and links to the affected assessment and control.

Who approves an obligation review?

The Independent Reviewer examines the submitted obligation and records a decision, reason and source revision. The Compliance Lead handles a returned or rejected item.

What happens after a corrective action is submitted?

An Independent Reviewer records a separate retest result and evidence against the finding. The team can then verify a passing correction or continue work after a failed or inconclusive result.

Where do supporting files go?

Record attachments belong to assessments and carry a visibility choice. Test and corrective action records can also hold evidence references that the team agrees how to resolve.

How do I see work that needs attention?

Operations Overview shows tests performed, failed tests, pending review decisions and failed operations for the authorized scope. Working lists show submitted obligations, findings and corrective actions.

Can we compare risk ratings across business units?

Yes, review likelihood and impact with the scale version used for each risk. Agree on how to interpret different versions before comparing ratings.

How is a failed operation handled?

Open its receipt, review the action, expected revision, failure reason and effect references, and compare those with the assessment records before treating the work as complete.
