Adding a section and its sub-sections

In our example, we’re going to add the main section called ‘Sensitive Personal Data’ and just a single sub-section called ‘Employee Sensitive Personal Data’

  1. Click ‘Add New’, add the name and description of the main section, and click ‘Add sub-section’.
    If you click ‘Generate sections’, then only the ‘Add sub-section’ button will display.

  2. Click on the box that says ‘New sub section’

  3. Add the name and description of the sub-section and click ‘Add new item’, and ‘Add new item’ below that.
    (We are adding items directly at this point and not importing items).

  4. Hover over the line – ‘New item’ – until you see the cursor change to the hand icon clipboard_eff9be328091198eeaad4f850904e9ddb.png, then click.

    Important! *** You can only adjust the default risk level here – and not from within the checklist as before.

    This is an improvement in permissions controls – limited to users with access.

  6. Continue adding as needed by clicking ‘Add new item’. Select those you need to appear in the checklist as indicated below
    – i.e., the white tick in the blue square on the left clipboard_eb5746bf694e456298716400357a820cf.png.

  7. Most important:Click ‘Save’, otherwise you will lose all of your work. It’s a good idea to Save regularly

  8. When you need to edit a section or sub-section, click on the section or sub-section and then click ‘Edit’

Importing items from your CSV into an existing sub-section works exactly like it did before. You must save them to the sub-section, but you can edit the sub-section should you need to add or remove any of these items.
