Controls Management

Is it possible to prevent test forms from being automatically deleted when a control is removed?  We have to store Test Forms for a period of time based on various regulations (SOX, FINRA, NFA, FCA, etc.).  We have noticed if an older control gets...

Hi Team, I would like to utilize the Report Builder functionality to create risk/control reports for various risk/control categories and subsidiaries, so I need to filter columns to get the right data. One issue I ran into is that I can only make ...

I would like to know if the COBIT Framework can be included into the Compliance Manager? Or if there is a timeline for its implementation. I was not able to find any post regarding this.  Thanks

Hi everyone, We are in the process of implementing Controls Management for a client and have a new requirement. Is it possible to automatically populate systems/assets to controls based on classifications? Alternatively, if specific field values...

Hey all, we just recently implemented Workiva so apologies if there's a dumb answer to this. Is it possible to have a calculated field within the Risk or Control form?  For example, if I rate Risk Impact as High (3) and Risk Likelihood as Low (1) ...

We're relatively new to Workiva and looking to take full advantage of its capabilities. Wondering if anyone can share what successfully integrating risks, controls and procedures looks like? What are the keys to successfully integrating these comp...

Is there a way to retire/decommission risks?

Mike Hetue

Subject says it all. I have tables in reports (Audit module) and column width looks arbitrary by delfaut and ajusting them on the fly last only few seconds until next reflesh.

How can I mass include the walkthrough phase for all my SOX controls?

Has anyone been successful at using Workiva Audit Experience to create, send out and gather responses to post audit client surveys?

What is the difference between the testing start date, testing completion date and Due date?  and If we remove the Due date will it impact anywhere?

Hi Team, I want to know how to upload multiple data into the control/process/etc tables at one time and mapping the fields into the Control Management Workspace

Is it possible to reference a Report in the Internal Controls Database to a Certification letter? I would like to link our RCM report to the quarterly SOX certification, so the Control Owners can jump into the report to look for their controls if ...

Has anyone created a report or is there some embedded functionality in the SOX or IA modules that allow for users to create a risk universe?

Under which circumstances is Information Produced by the Entity (IPE) required by your external auditor? Could you please provide some instances of particular IPE that your external auditor has explicitly required? Are IPE requirements incorporat...

After bulk importing the PBC requests, we found that only the individual who imported the requests had permissions to view the requests. We had to go in and update the permissions for each request one-by-one. If this is the only way to import requ...

We are reviewing controls and currently have a 1st level review and 2nd level review. How would i change the responsible person for the first level review if they have taken a leave of absence?

Matt Giannini

In the control forms, there is a field where you can select yes or no under "In Scope for FCC Review". Sometimes when we are testing, we need to double check this, so we would like to have the same field added to Test forms to save us having to go...

Hi My organization doesn't have a homogeneous control environment, so the current folder structure in the Testing Experience isn't suitable for our way of working. Would you have anything in the pipeline to enable sub-folders in the Testing Experi...

When I hit Create New Frequency in the control frequency drop-down, I get a brief glimpse of some boxes at the right but then it goes away - is this something that has to be changed by the CSM? I'm trying to add a new frequency type to the dropdow...

Please indicate if the functionality to export the evidence testing tables to excel or CSV is in the pipeline.

Paulina Lowe

Greetings, I sent out a request to the Assignee for evidence.  The Assignee sent the evidence to me directly outside of Workiva.  I am able to upload the files into the request, but I am unable to close the request.  Suggestions?

Mark Finck

Does Workiva have the capability of sending a link to a Process Owner and presenting the Action Plan procedure for the Process Owner to fill out and submit?   Right now, all I can figure out is to send a request to the Process Owner, asking them t...

Kenneth Heskett

It would be great if an end user could simply upload a list of pbc requests rather than go through the CSM. When I used Workiva in circa 2018 with a different company this was a request then. Fast forward to 2023, this is still a request now.

Have there been any changes to the time tracking in the test forms? We've noted, there are much more fields than in the past year which creates confusion for our testers which fields need/must be populated? There was no such announcement, nor does...

Udo

We are using time tracking in our SOX testing to track and calculate the time spent for SOX-testing. Recently we've changed (i.e. deleted) some time entries from a test form. However, we noted that the correspondent time tracking report still cont...

Udo

Hi,  Is anyone aware of how we can have the external auditors be able to export files in bulk as there are certain documents that they will need to bring out of Workiva into their audit tool. Thanks!

To assist with efficient communication of outstanding requests, is there a way to automatically generate a requests summary report of all outstanding requests for an assignee that can be sent on a specified frequency? For example, every week an em...
