Approving an Engagement Request

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to describe how to approve an engagement request using a control-based engagement risk assessment project.

Engagement Request Approval

Once a requester submits an engagement request and its approval flow starts, the project moves to In Progress status for the request approval phase.

If you are in the approval flow for an engagement request in a control-based engagement risk assessment project, you can approve or deny it.

  • As an approver, if you believe that an engagement request requires further investigation or mitigation, in addition to denying it, you also have the option of approving it but raising an issue for it.

If you are the final approver and you approve the request, the project moves to In Progress status for the trigger evidence and control process phase and the assigned person in your organization sends assessments related to the engagement's required controls.

If you deny the request, it moves to Request Denied status and no further action can be taken.

  • If the request is denied, and you are either an approver or a member of the Supplier Risk Engagement Governance Analyst group, you can resubmit the approval.
