Show full answer Show less ## Key Features * **Audit Entry Fields on GRC Objects (Australia release):** Introduces classification of specific GRC objects (Entity, Engagement, Control Objective, Control, Risk Statement) as third-line audit records using a new audit entry option. This feature enables role-based access control where only users with the `snauditws.thirdlinemanager` role can view these third-line audit records. The audit entry option is selected by default for third-line managers and becomes read-only after saving. Administrators must manually assign this role to users to enable this functionality. * **Audit Engagement Management (Brazil release):** Enhances capability to plan, execute, and report audit engagements effectively, supporting assurance to audit committees and executive boards about the effectiveness of risk and compliance management strategies. ## Upgrade and Activation Information * Audit Management is available for installation via the ServiceNow Store. Customers should request installation through the store and review the cumulative version history release notes for all app versions. * No special pre- or post-upgrade tasks or additional requirements were noted between Australia and Brazil releases. * There are no changes to browser requirements, localization, or accessibility information for Audit Management between these releases. ## Changes, Removals, and Deprecations No changes, feature removals, or deprecations were introduced between the Australia and Brazil releases for Audit Management. ## Why This Matters These updates improve audit data governance by clearly separating third-line audit records from operational data with controlled visibility, ensuring compliance and security. The Brazil release further empowers audit teams to manage engagement workflows and reporting, facilitating better communication with stakeholders and supporting organizational risk assurance. ## What to Expect * Improved visibility controls for audit records based on user roles. * Enhanced audit engagement planning and reporting capabilities. * Smooth upgrade path with no required special upgrade steps or changes to system requirements.
