# How it Works
You can manage an existing control in Sprinto to keep it aligned with your compliance requirements. This includes updating details, mapping or unmapping checks, disabling the control, and managing linked frameworks and criteria.
Follow these steps:
#### **Step 1: Log in to the dashboard**
\
Log in to the Sprinto dashboard and go to **Compliance > Controls**.
***
#### **Step 2: Open the control you want to manage**
\
In the **Enabled** or **Disabled** section, find the control and click its name to open the details page.
***
#### **Step 3: Map or unmap checks**
\
In the **Monitoring** section, click **Manage**. Deselect checks in the **Mapped Checks** list to unmap them, or select checks from the **All Checks** list to map them. Click **Map Selected Checks** to save.
***
#### **Step 4: Edit control details**
\
Click **Edit** next to the control’s details. Update the name, description, control number, domain, or other editable fields, and save your changes.
***
#### **Step 5: Disable the control**
\
If the control is no longer required, click **Disable**. Confirm the action to deactivate it. Disabled controls appear in the **Disabled** tab.
***
#### **Step 6: Manage mapped frameworks**
\
Scroll to the **Mapped Frameworks** section. Add or remove frameworks linked to the control by selecting or deselecting them.
***
#### **Step 7: Map framework criteria**
\
For a selected framework, click **Manage Criteria**. Search or filter to find the relevant clauses or requirements, select them, and click **Save**.
***
By regularly managing your controls, you ensure that monitoring activities, framework mappings, and compliance documentation remain accurate and up to date.
