Welcome to the Cross Mapping Summary feature! In dashboard of our Compliance Management application! This feature allows users to view the cross mapping Summary data in chart and download the reports. This guide will walk you through the functionality and capabilities of the Cross mapping summary in detail.

  1. Overview on Cross Mapping Summary

The dashboard includes a dedicated tab to display the Cross Mapping Summary. This tab offers a comprehensive view of data from cross-mapped sources and their interactions, streamlining the comparison and analysis of assessments and their associated libraries for more informed decision-making.

Assessment Selection Dropdown - Users can select an assessment to view detailed information, including the cross-mapped libraries associated with it. This ensures that users can drill down into specific assessments and understand their mapping relationships.

Chart Representation - Once an assessment is selected, a dynamic chart is generated to visualize data from both the assessment and its associated cross-mapped libraries. The chart categorizes data as follows:

  • Compliance: Results that align with and meet the required standards or regulatory guidelines.
  • Non-Compliance: Areas that do not meet the established standards or requirements.
      • Others:Data that does not fit into compliance or non-compliance categories, such as items in progress or with uncertain outcomes.
      • Not Answered: Question which are not answered during the survey, which are displayed under this category.

The chart dynamically updates to display the selected assessment and its associated libraries, delivering an intuitive visual representation of the data.
