Assign objects to hierarchy elements

You can assign risks, controls, and control test definitions to a hierarchy element. If the hierarchy element is relevant for sign-off, it is evaluated by the corresponding sign-off. This does not apply to the additional hierarchy elements in Risk Management (application system types, risk categories).

This example describes how to assign risks and control test definitions to an organization hierarchy element. Controls can also be assigned.
