# Configure Entities in Audit Evidence

Entity configuration allows you to control which records are displayed as evidence during an audit. You can include or exclude specific entities so that only relevant data is surfaced to auditors during the evidence review process.

Currently, Sprinto supports configuring the following entities within audit evidence:

* Staff
* Risk Registers

When an entity is included in an audit, its associated records are automatically mapped to applicable audit requirements and evidence sets.

#### Note

Entity-based evidence configuration is available as an on-demand feature. To enable this feature for your organisation, contact the Sprinto Support team.

The selected staff members are included in the audit evidence and become available wherever staff-related evidence is mapped.

#### Configure risk registers

1. In the entity drawer, select **Risk Registers**.

2. Choose one of the following options:
   * Select the checkbox beside **Risk register** to include all available risk registers.
   * Select individual risk registers to include specific registers.
3. Review your selections.
4. Click **Save**.

The selected risk registers are included in the audit and their associated records become available as evidence for applicable audit requirements.

### View risk register evidence in audit requirements

When Risk Registers are included in an audit, Sprinto automatically maps relevant risk register records to associated controls and requirements.

To review the mapped evidence:

1. Navigate to the audit's **Evidence** tab.
2. Select a requirement that contains risk register evidence.

3. Open the requirement to view its details.

The requirement page displays:

* Mapped evidence sets.
* Associated risk assessment records.
* Supporting evidence linked to the selected Risk Register.
* Related documentation and evaluation details.

If multiple Risk Registers are included in the audit, use the **Risk Register** filter to switch between registers and review evidence records from a specific register.

This helps auditors review risk-related evidence without leaving the audit workflow.

{% hint style="info" %}

#### Notes

* Entity configuration is currently supported for **Staff** and **Risk Registers** only. We plan to extend support for more entities soon.
* Changes apply only to the selected audit.
* Excluded entities are not displayed as part of the audit evidence.
* Evidence records are automatically surfaced in applicable requirements when the corresponding entity is included in the audit.
* If multiple Risk Registers are included, reviewers can filter evidence by register directly from the requirement view.
