Duplicate a second-line record as an audit entry

Use the Duplicate as audit entry action to copy a second-line control, control objective, risk, or risk statement into a new third-line record. Each source record can be duplicated only once.

Before you begin

The source record must be a second-line record. The action is hidden on third-line records. The action is available on the following four objects only:

• Control objective
• Control
• Risk statement
• Risk

Note: If a third-line manager opens the original second-line record and selects Duplicate as audit entry, an error indicates that the record cannot be duplicated again. A source record can be duplicated only once and cannot be converted again to second line.

Role required: sn_audit_ws.third_line_manager

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Audit > Audit Workspace.

2. Select the list icon

1. Open the second-line record to duplicate.

2. From the More actions

A new record opens with the same field values as the source record. The **Name** field is prefixed with Copy followed by the source record name. For example, a copy of Loss of Confidentiality opens as Copy Loss of Confidentiality.

1. Adjust any field values that should differ from the source record.

2. Select Save.

   The new record is created as a third-line record and is stored as a copy of the source record. It retains a reference to the original record in the Audit entry source field, located under the Audit entry check box.
