FloQast is able to further centralize evidence of Control execution by linking your Checklist or Reconciliation tasks in your other FloQast Workflows to your Controls.
In-line editing (linking Checklists and Reconciliations): Admins and Managers can hover over any Checklist item or Reconciliation and click on the Gear Symbol. The in-line edit window will pop open and you can add your Controls using the Controls field. This will be an entire list of active Controls showing the Control ID, Control Name, and if it is a Key or Non-Key Control.
Note: Users must have an Admin or a Manager role designation within the Close tool to perform this action.
Once added, you will be able to view the Control right below the Checklist or Reconciliation. You can click on the Control caret in blue to expand the Control to view the Title and Description.
Bulk Upload (Checklists): To link Controls to Checklist items through a bulk upload, you will navigate to the Checklist tab within the Greater Admin Settings. From there, you will click "Export Template" and your Checklist template will download in your downloads folder and an additional copy will be saved in the ‘Checklist Template’ folder within the Entity folder in your Cloud Storage. Once you are done making your changes, you can click ‘Upload Template’ to upload the document and then click "Save and Apply Changes" on the right to apply your changes to the relevant period.
Within the Checklist Template, you will see there is a new column labeled ‘Controls’ where you can add your Control IDs in bulk to link to the Checklist item. Multiple controls can be linked to a checklist item by using a semicolon to separate Control IDs. (Note: When linking multiple controls, separate each control with a semicolon).
Once you link any Checklists or Reconciliations to your Controls, they will show up under the "Control Evidence" section when you drill down into the Control Details.
