Choose what proves a requirement

Choose what proves a requirement in an audit: let AI find the form questions that ask it, use the right one, or add a document, training or register.

Sound is off

Each requirement in an audit is proven by something people already record: a form question, a document review, training or a register. Until something proves it, only the gap assessment checks it, and the audit lists it as a gap: Nothing checks this requirement.

What proves a requirement belongs to the standard, so a change applies to every audit of that standard. You need permission to manage audits to change it.

  1. Step 1

    Open the requirement

    In your audit, click By requirement, then click a requirement. The list groups requirements by section, with what proves each and its open gaps. Gap assessment only means nothing proves it yet.

  2. Step 2

    Open What proves this

    Under the requirement, Proven by says what checks it now, or Nothing proves this yet when only the gap assessment does. Click Change to choose what does.

  3. Step 3

    Find likely matches

    Under Likely matches, click Find likely matches.

  4. Step 4

    AI looks through your forms

    AI searches your forms for questions that may ask this requirement, and says how close each match is.

  5. Step 5

    Use the right question

    On the question that proves the requirement, click Use it. Click Not this to set a match aside.

  6. Step 6

    Now in use

    The question moves to In use. For a form question, a failing answer opens a gap; you can Remove it again.

  7. Step 7

    Add other proof

    Under Add proof, you can also add other kinds of proof the requirement allows: a register such as test and tag for an asset requirement; documents, training and registers for others. Form question finds or drafts a question with AI.

  8. Step 8

    Every audit of the standard

    Changes apply to every audit of this standard from now on. Audits already frozen keep what they had.
