When a manager or user marks an unassigned alert as applicable, a regulatory change task
is created. A regulatory change task is used by the stakeholders to analyze and identify the
changes that should be performed on the alerts. The stakeholders can then create action
tasks.

A regulatory change task serves as the parent for all the action tasks that have been created
to complete the identified changes. For example, an action task can involve making updates to the
policies, controls, and risk statements in the regulatory library.

A manager with the sn_grc_reg_change.manager role assigns a regulatory change task to an
identified user with the sn_grc_reg_change.user role in the system. The regulatory change task
displays the details of the task such as the assignment group, the approver, the assignee, and
other relevant information.

After a regulatory change task is completed, the associated regulatory alert can be closed.
