Open a control and work through its evidence requirements.
Each control has one or more required evidence specifications describing what to provide.
Use Add Upload on a document requirement to upload a file or fill the provided template.
Evidence is saved as a draft first, then submitted for review.
Approved evidence counts toward the control's requirement and updates its status.
Records is the unified evidence model: Documents and Policies are unified into Records. A Record you attach here is the same object you can manage from the central Records hub at /app/records. See Records - documents, policies, and tests.
Where to add evidence
On a control's detail page, each evidence requirement describes what the document must cover. Use Add Upload on a requirement to open its document record, where you attach the file.
Adding an upload
Selecting Add Upload opens the document record (its Uploads tab). From there you either upload a file that satisfies the requirement or fill the provided template. Uploaded files appear in the Current Uploads list, each noting who submitted it and when.
The document record carries the evidence's status, renewal cadence, review state, and the frameworks it supports, so the effective and expiration dates track the control's renewal cadence. Save to draft first; draft items persist across page refreshes, so you can gather several before submitting.
Draft, review, approved
Evidence moves through a short workflow before it counts:
Draft: saved but not yet submitted. Add several items to a draft and submit them together.
Submitted for review: a reviewer approves the evidence or requests changes. See the Reviews article in the Consultation and reviews section.
Approved: the Record now counts against the control's requirement, and the control's status recalculates.
Auto-linking from your Records
Records in your library automatically serve as evidence for the controls they cover. When a policy or document is updated and approved, the controls that reference it pick up the new version and recalculate their status; you don't have to re-attach it to each control by hand.
This is why the Records hub and the control library work as one system: manage a policy once, and every control it evidences stays current. See Records - documents, policies, and tests.
