GRC Indicator Nightly Run not processing all Indicators

I am experienceing some weirdness around my indicators in GRC.  I have some control indicators set up - they are a type "Basic".   They essentially check to see if the name of the entity the control is for starts with the letter A.  The indicators do perform correctly when they run.  However the scheduled job does not process All Indicators it seems.   

 

If I click the execute now button on the scheduled job - it runs and updates 1 indicator and stops.  If I click it manually to execute it again it runs and updates 1 and stops.   This is the execute now on the scheduled job - so it should update them all.     Some indicators run while others do not.   

 

Has anyone else experiences this?

Hi @Community Alums ,

The GRC indicator nightly run job executes the indicators. 

Please check below :

1. Make sure "GRC indicator nightly run" scheduled job is active. 

2. It first checks 'Next run time' field of the indicators. If it matches the current date, it will then count the number of open indicator tasks and compare it to the maximum open indicator tasks stored in the system property sn_grc.max_open_indicator_tasks. If equal or greater than, indicator task creation will abort and notification will be sent to risk and compliance managers (those with the role sn_grc.manager). Otherwise, it will proceed with the creation of the indicator task.

3. Indicators yield results when the indicator tasks are closed. Those results are then used to create issues for controls, update risk scores, and provide supporting information for audit activities and control testing.

So make sure, the indicator tasks are closed , before you run the Scheduled Job again.

Thank you for the response - however I am not referring to Indicator Tasks that get created from Manual indicators.   The indicators are "Basic" indicators so they do not create indicator tasks.    Or are you saying that the "Basic" type indicators create some kind of system task?
