Manage Workflow Checks
Learn how to view, edit, disable, and delete Workflow Checks in Sprinto.
After creating Workflow Checks, you can manage them from the Data Library → Workflow Checks page. This includes editing check details, updating owners or reviewers, disabling irrelevant checks, or deleting them permanently.
Edit Workflow Checks
- Navigate to Data Library → Workflow Checks.
- Select the Workflow Check you want to manage.
- Click Edit.
- Update the details as required. You can modify:
- Title and description – update the name or purpose of the check.
- Instructions – revise evidence collection or reporting guidelines.
- Frequency – adjust how often the check runs.
- Assignment – change the owner or reviewer.
- Custom fields – update organisation-specific details.
- Zones – reassign the check to the appropriate zone.
- Save your changes.
Disable or Delete Workflow Checks
- Open the Workflow Check details.
- Select Disable this check to stop future activations.
- The check remains in the system but will no longer trigger.
- To permanently remove the check, select Delete.
Disabling is recommended if you want to pause a check temporarily. Use Delete only when a check is no longer relevant.
Mark Workflow Checks as Special Cases
Sometimes, a Workflow Check is not applicable. In such cases, you can mark it as a Special Case:
- Open the Workflow Check details.
- Select Mark as special case.
- Add supporting details:
- Reason – choose why the check is marked as a special case.
- Notes – include remarks to clarify context.
- Evidence (optional) – upload supporting documentation.
- Validity – choose Valid forever or set an expiry date.
- Click Mark as Special Case.
Once marked, the check is set to Passing for the defined period but is categorised under “Special Cases” for audit clarity.
Best Practices
- Use Edit when process instructions or frequency change.
- Use Disable for temporary suspensions, such as checks not needed during a short project.
- Use Delete sparingly to maintain historical records.
- Always provide context when marking a check as a special case to support audit reviews.
