Self-Service Audit Agreement

An organization may require the acceptance of corporate agreement text before allowing an audit. Your organization can customize an agreement and include it in the Self-Service Audit settings. The administrator configures the system to require users to accept the agreement text before running a self-service audit or skip this agreement.

If users executing the self-service audit wish to comply with the agreement text, the Self-Service Audit proceeds and the results display. If they disagree with the agreement, the self-service audit does not occur.

Agreement acceptance remains throughout the session. If users time out or shut down, they must accept or reject the agreement the next time they want to audit the local system.

To configure the self-service audit agreement:

1.Click Use the Following Agreement.

2.Type the text of the agreement in the scroll box.

3.Type a version number for the agreement in the Agreement Version box.

If you update the version number each time you modify the agreement, you can keep track of the which version of the agreement is current. Every time a user accepts the agreement, the event is logged with this version number.

4. Click the Update button to save the agreement settings.
