Groups, editing many items, importing and undo

Help centre › Registers: risks, controls, systems

  • Groups: drag items onto a group, in the hierarchy or in the grid, to put them in it; drop them on New group to make a group of them. Or pick them and choose Move or Group. Drop on All … to lift items back to the top.
  • Many at once: tick rows (or Ctrl/⌘-click, Shift-click, or Pick all that match), then set a field, move, group, make active or retire them together.
  • Edit in place: double-click a name or a field in the grid, or change it in the item’s panel. Changes save at once, without reloading the list.
  • Right-click a row (or the item’s panel, or its ⋯) to add an item under it, move it, group or retire it, or approve a proposal.
  • Where it is used: the processes that use the item, under their place on the process map, with the steps in each. Search it when the list is long.
  • Columns: click a heading to sort by it (any field), drag its edge to make it wider or narrower, and use Columns (or the arrow on a heading) to hide one. Your columns are remembered in this browser.
  • Import: Import a CSV or Excel file, map its columns (category columns build groups), check exactly what will change, then import.
  • Import into registers (Administration › Imports): CSV files, or an Excel workbook with a sheet per table. A file named after a register (risks.csv) goes into it. A row can also hold linked items: name the columns after their register (Risk: Name, Risk: Rating, Control: Name…) and each row creates both and links them (a control mitigates the risk). Rows about the same item count once, and importing the file again updates rather than duplicates.
  • Templates and mappings: Download template for the registers you pick gives a file the import reads by itself. For someone else’s file, Mapping… says which register and field each column goes to; admins save it under a name to use again, or from the API.
  • Reuse only (Fields and owners): for a register kept in step with another system. The AI only picks existing items and tells you when nothing fits; a risk or control a model defines for itself is flagged, with Propose it to the register to send it to the owners.
  • Owner fields take an email address, a name or a role title (as process owners do), so a file from a GRC tool can carry titles.
  • Retire with a replacement: the models that used the retired item can move to the replacement in one go.
  • Delete (right-click, or with rows ticked) removes items for good, with anything grouped under them, but only items no model uses: those you retire instead, so no model is left pointing at nothing. To clear a register, Pick all that match, then Delete.
  • Undo: every change is listed under Changes, and each can be undone; each item’s History tab shows what changed.
  • Fields and owners (admins): add your own fields, lists of options and the people who own the register.
