Hi all,
I was looking into the OOTB functionality around inactive entities. I noticed that while users are unable to activate a control that is linked to an inactive entity, they are able to activate and execute an indicator of this control. Then, when this indicator fails, an error pops up because issues cannot be created for a retired item.
My question is, is there a reason for the fact that indicators are still able to be activated and executed? Is there a case in which they should be able to?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Natascha deJ ,
We have a Scheduled job called "GRC indicator nightly run" which is responsible for Indicators to run, it uses a script :
"IndicatorEngine() " has a OOTB Script include called "IndicatorEngineBase" which is by GRC Profiles base system Script include, where you cannot update any script as it's protected by ServiceNow.
If you look at the script:

Hi!
Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. Technically, you are correct.
However, I want to know why it is decided to allow indicators to be used that are linked to inactive entities. And if people think there is a use case for this type of situation. (Entity inactive, control retired, but indicator in use).
