Transfer Risk and Compliance data from ARIS Architect

You can transfer GRC-relevant master data objects (example: risks or survey schedulers) along with their assigned objects (example: hierarchies or roles) from ARIS Architect to ARIS Risk and Compliance. Note that the transfer cannot be undone. Therefore, simulate the transfer of Risk and Compliance data previously to check the changes that would result from the transfer.

Prerequisite

  • You have the Risk and Compliance administrator or the Risk and Compliance data transfer manager function privilege.

  • You have the Risk and Compliance (Operate) license privileges.

  • You have the ARIS Designer or ARIS Architect license privilege.

  • The ARIS database used for this transfer must be the one specified for the environment in ARIS Administration (Configuration > Risk and Compliance > DATA MANAGEMENT > Environments).

  • To transfer roles, the Master data management settings for roles (ARIS Risk and Compliance Administration Administration > System > Basic settings) must not be disabled.

  • Objects and models are transferred to ARIS Risk and Compliance only if the Transfer to ARIS Risk and Compliance attribute (AT_AAM_EXPORT_RELEVANT) is set to true. For detailed information on modeling guidelines, refer to the Modeling Conventions.

  • The data of an ARIS database can be transferred to multiple ARIS Risk and Compliance environments, but an ARIS Risk and Compliance environment can receive data from only one ARIS database.

  • Migrate the Risk and Compliance roles before you transfer Risk and Compliance data that follow the former modeling convention (up to version 10.0.17).

  • The roles used in the modeling must already exist in ARIS Risk and Compliance. They must either be created in ARIS Administration (Configuration > Risk and Compliance > DATA MANAGEMENT > Roles) or transferred from ARIS to ARIS Risk and Compliance using Get from ARIS Repository.

Procedure. Procedure

  1. Start ARIS Architect.

  2. Click ARIS > ARIS Architect Explorer Explorer. The Explorer tab opens.

  3. Click Navigation Navigation in the bar panel if the Navigation bar is not activated yet.

  4. Navigate to the relevant database in ARIS Architect and log in to the database.

  5. Select the item from which you want to start the transfer.

  6. Activate the Contents tab bar.

  7. Click Export > Transfer Risk and Compliance data. The corresponding dialog opens.

  8. Select the environment to which the data is to be transferred. If no environment is displayed or if you want to use another environment than the one displayed, you must specify the database in the respective environment in ARIS Administration (Configuration > Risk and Compliance > DATA MANAGEMENT > Environments).

  9. Activate Deactivate objects deleted in the ARIS database in the target environment to deactivate objects which were deleted in the ARIS database in the corresponding environment in ARIS Risk and Compliance. This option is only available if you have started the export on a database.

  10. To verify whether the changes that would occur due to the transfer are correct and executed without errors, first run a simulation before transferring the data. To do so, enable Simulate transfer and Click OK. Otherwise, skip this step.

  11. Enable Activate transfer report to generate a file that contains transfer or simulation details, such as objects that have not been updated. If you enabled the option, you must specify the file location. Otherwise, you cannot start the report.

  12. To start the transfer, click OK.

The master data objects are transferred to ARIS Risk and Compliance. If role maintenance is only allowed in ARIS Risk and Compliance (ARIS Risk and Compliance Administration Administration > System > Basic settings > Master data management > Roles), user roles are not transferred.
