Create and Manage Manual Workflow Checks

Configure manual workflow checks in Sprinto to collect device compliance evidence when MDM tools are not used.

If your staff devices are not monitored via Dr. Sprinto or a supported third-party MDM tool, you can still ensure compliance by configuring manual workflow checks. These checks allow your team to periodically upload evidence from unmanaged devices—such as BYOD laptops or contractor endpoints—and validate them against your compliance controls.

Before You Begin

Ensure that:

  • You are logged in to the Sprinto admin portal.
  • You have a list of device compliance checks that are required for your framework (e.g. OS version, encryption, antivirus, etc.).
  • You’ve identified who will be responsible for uploading and reviewing evidence.

Set Up Manual Monitoring

  1. Go to Data Library > Staff Devices > Overview.
  2. Click Set up manual monitoring.
  1. Choose from the list of predefined device checks, or click Create your own check.

You can create:

  • Single evidence upload checks – Ideal for one-time submissions.
  • Bulk upload workflow checks – Ideal for adding checks in bulk.

Configure the Workflow Check

For each selected check:

  1. Review and edit the following details:
FieldDescription

Activated fromSelect the date when the check should go live.
Evidence reviewEnable this toggle if you want reviewers to approve each submission.
  1. Click Add Check to complete the setup.

If evidence review is enabled, you must assign a reviewer from the dropdown menu.

Manage and Edit Checks

Once created, all checks appear under the Workflow Checks category in the Monitoring section.

To edit a check:

  1. Navigate to the check and click Edit.
  2. You can edit the custom fields or the check details.
  1. Update fields as needed.
  2. Save changes to update the live configuration.

You can also disable or delete unused checks if they’re no longer required.
