# Remove controls

# Remove controls from an AI asset {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Remove associated controls from an AI asset to keep the inventory accurate and up to date. This step is essential to retire outdated or irrelevant controls without deleting their records.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_grc_ai_gov.ai_risk_and_compliance_analyst

## About this task

Removing a control disassociates it from the AI asset without deleting the underlying control record. The control remains in the inventory and can be re-added to the same or other AI assets later. Use Remove when a control is no longer applicable to an asset but the record itself should be preserved. To permanently delete control records, see [Delete controls from an AI asset](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/2BgNqRCjOI7etP5xuAdNVQ "Delete controls from an AI asset to remove them permanently from the control table. This task confirms outdated or unnecessary controls are deleted.").

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAI Risk and Compliance Workspace.
2. Select the list ![]() icon.
3. Navigate to the AI asset inventory and open the AI asset record.
4. Navigate to Applies toControls.
5. Choose the control that you want to remove and select Remove.  
   The Remove button appears only when an AI analyst is assigned to the AI asset record.
6. Select Remove all.  
   The selected controls for this AI asset are retired. This action doesn't delete the control records.

## Result

state changes to retired. The underlying control records remain in the
inventory and can be re-added to this or other AI assets later.

## What to do next

To permanently remove control records from the system, see
[Delete controls from an AI asset](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/2BgNqRCjOI7etP5xuAdNVQ "Delete controls from an AI asset to remove them permanently from the control table. This task confirms outdated or unnecessary controls are deleted."). To add controls
back to this or another AI asset, see
[Add controls from control objective](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/b9D0UK0fdLhk2X8jhN5jAw "Add controls manually from published control objectives to an AI asset in AI Risk and Compliance. Use this task when controls were not automatically generated by a post-assessment action, or when you need to apply additional controls beyond those mapped through the impact assessment.").
