Setting access review status

Roles and permissions

The following roles can edit access review status:

  • Administrators with manager permissions for the access review

  • Compliance managers with manager permissions for the access review

  • Users with manager permissions for the access review

As you go through an access review, the status of that review governs the work that can be done. The status displays next to the title of the access review.

Status settings include the following:

  • Setup - When you create a new access review the status is automatically set to In setup. An access review is in the Setup status until you click the Launch review button on the Setup or Review tab or the status is set to In progress on the Details tab. During this phase, you can do the following:

    • Edit the information on the Details tab.

    • Link the controls satisfied by the access review.

    • Add your company directory.

    • Add the user access lists for one or more applications to be reviewed.

      Note

      Once you have changed the status from Setup to In progress you can no longer add or refresh the company directory, or any user access lists.

    • For each user record in each user access list, modify the default reviewer and default sysadmin as needed.

    • Click the Launch review button on the Setup or Review tab to change the status to In progress.

    • Manually attach proof to the access review or to linked controls.

  • In progress - When you have completed all of the setup tasks, you change the status for the access review to In progress. During this phase, you can do the following:

    • Edit the information on the Details tab.

    • Link the controls satisfied by the access review. This is typically done during Setup, but can be done at any time before generating proof.

    • For each user record in each user access list, modify the default reviewer and default sysadmin as needed.

    • Review individual user access records and indicate which users' access should be updated.

    • For those users whose access needs to be updated, you can attest that the updates have been completed.

    • View your progress on the access review dashboard.

    • Click the Complete review button on the Review tab to change the status to Completed.

  • Completed - When you have finished reviewing all user access records and attested that all updates are done, change the status to Completed by clicking the Complete review button on the Review tab. During this phase, you can do the following:

    • Edit the information on the Details tab.

    • Link the controls satisfied by the access review. This is typically done during Setup, but can be done at any time before generating proof.

    • View the dashboard for the access review to verify that all user records have been reviewed and the review is marked complete.

    • Generate proof that is automatically attached to the access review.

    • Manually attach proof to the access review or to linked controls.

Warning

You can change the status of an access review back to Setup or In progress on the Details tab if necessary. Note that if you go back to Setup and refresh or re-import an application user list, any review work that you have already done for that list is deleted.
