[Back To Top]
Form Status Indicators are an integral part of the governance and audit process integrated into the IT Audit Machine. Status Indicators identify the state of a given control or field on a form which in turn represents your progress in meeting the requirements for that control as determined by the examiner. These statuses, in turn, drive many of the metrics used in tracking and reporting on your entity’s overall actions toward compliance with the standard represented by the form.

In this section of the guide, we will discuss Status Indicators and how they are used. We will also briefly discuss the reports that the data feeds into, though more detail on the Report Types can be found on in the Report Types section of the Guide.

In this section of the guide, we discussed the meaning of the various statuses and looked at the different ways you can work with the statuses and change them. In the next section of the guide, we will discuss how POA&Ms are implemented in the IT Audit Machine and how to configure them for use in an instancelook at the File Manager and how it allows you to keep track of the files that have been uploaded to your forms.
