Request evidence at any stage during an audit using the Audit Workspace. The details about the items for which evidence is requested are also provided to the person responsible for providing the evidence.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_grc-advance.evidence-requestor

## About this task

Selecting Create a new evidence request task in this procedure allows you to create an response directly. This bypasses the need to first create collection details. Typically, a response is created for
each collection detail before working on the evidence response --- this step is skipped when creating the task directly.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AuditEngagementsMy Engagements.
2. Open the engagement record, and select the related list from which you want to request evidence.
3. Select the Evidence tab.
4. Select New to create a new evidence request task.  
   Request evidence page is displayed.
5. On the form, fill in the fields.
