Object library

The Object library is a shared repository of GRC objects that Audit users can access from within the Audit app. It provides a consistent source of truth for objects such as controls, assessment methods, processes, control assessments, audit findings, and actions. The Object library supports Audit scoping and fieldwork by making shared control and object metadata available directly in Audit. When you open a shared object from the library, Audit preserves the navigation and workflow context. Object ownership remains with the source application, but Audit users can still access and use the object's details. The Object library is designed to feel native to Audit, with direct links from audit scoping and object lists to shared object details.

Key features

Here are the key features of Object library:

• Browse shared objects View controls, assessment methods, processes, control assessments, and audit findings from the shared Object library.

• Access control details Select a control name from Audit scoping or control test lists to open the related Object library item.

• Use shared relationships Review relationships between objects, such as controls and assessment methods, while staying inside Audit.

• Maintain entitlement independence Audit can consume shared objects without requiring separate Risk Manager or Internal Controls entitlements.

• Find controls from Audit scoping If no controls exist yet, use the control library link to access shared controls from the Object library.
