4.1.2.2. Batch Submission of Evidence (By Test)

To streamline the evidence collection phase of the Plan & Execute Audits workflow, we have added a new feature that enables evidence collectors to submit their evidence in smaller, test-specific batches.

*Previously, evidence collectors could only submit their entire collection of evidence at once, delaying the review process until all evidence from a particular collector was gathered. With this update, evidence collectors can submit their evidence for review in smaller increments, improving efficiency and facilitating a more granular analysis of evidence.

To support batch submission, we have applied certain enhancements to the Collect Evidence form.

1. Submission Status

A new column has been added to the grid, indicating the submission status of each evidence item. It features a checkbox that is automatically selected if the evidence item has been submitted for review, and remains unselected if it has not yet been submitted.

2. Test Selection & Evidence Submission

Furthermore, a new multi-select dropdown field has been added to the form, allowing users to select the specific test(s) for which they want to submit evidence. By choosing the desired test(s) from the dropdown and clicking the Submit Evidence for Selected Test(s) button, evidence collectors can send the corresponding batch to the lead evidence collector for review.

*Each batch of submitted evidence can be independently reviewed, rejected, or approved.

!It’s important to note that if any of the selected tests have fewer samples than the requested sample size, a confirmation prompt will be displayed to alert the user.

3. Task Completion

Once the last test is submitted, either as part of a batch or as part of the submission of all evidence, the Collect Evidence task is considered completed and will no longer appear in the Pending Tasks folder of the evidence collector.
