Certifications & Reports
HOD Certifications and Consolidated Compliance Reporting
Create structured compliance reports and certifications from a single source. Certifications & Reports streamlines compliance data across entities, time periods and compliance categories, and provides consolidation of compliance information and generation of reports. Enhance compliance transparency, reporting accuracy and management supervision.
What is Certifications & Reports
Certifications & Reports is a submodule that enables organizations to create, maintain and review compliance information from a centralized location.
This module is a combination of two functions: Reports and Certifications. The Reports section allows the user to create compliance reports on any entity, reporting year, reporting period, department, compliance category, regulator, status and other available filters. The Certifications section allows to create and access certificates for an entity and a reporting period.
Centralizing reporting and certification on a single platform makes it easier for organizations to manage and centralize compliance information, generating management-ready records.
Compliance Reports in One Centralized Platform
Compliance teams often must gather information from various departments, locations, branches, compliance categories, regulators and reporting periods. This information can be hard to report and standardize manually.
Reports offers several filtering options that can be used to create reports as per user's requirement.
Users can choose between the relevant entity, reporting year, reporting period, the department, sub department, location/city, branch/center, compliance classification, compliance category, task category, task sub category, status, tags, regulator and regulation to view the required report.
This facilitates a more formalized manner of consolidated reporting for compliance and enables teams to get the information they need without having to manually work it from many sources.

Key Features of Compliance Reports
Consolidated Compliance Reporting
Create consolidated reports that provide a single place for reviewing and monitoring relevant compliance data.
Flexible Reporting Filters
Multiple filters such as entity, reporting year, reporting period, department, location, branch, compliance category, regulator, and status can be applied to report.
Entity-Based Reporting
Choose a particular entity to create reports applicable to its compliance efforts.
Period-Based Reporting
Create reports for a chosen reporting year or reporting period. Where relevant, users can use date-based filters.
Compliance Classification & Category
Report filter by compliance classification, compliance category, task category and task sub-category.
Regulator-Based Reporting
Identify appropriate compliance information for reporting and review using regulators and regulatory related filters.
Status-Based Reporting
Filter information by the status of compliance activities to help users focus on completed or other relevant compliance information.
PDF & Excel/CSV Downloads
The reporting interface offers the ability to share, review and work with compliance information more easily, as it can be downloaded as PDF and Excel/CSV files.
HOD Certifications
Certifications functionality helps to generate and manage HOD level certifications in the compliance workflow.
Users can create a new certificate by choosing the appropriate entity, reporting year, reporting period, certificate name/title, designation, certificate date and location.
This provides a complete record of certification which can be accessed and kept in the platform.
The module also lets users check the previously issued certificates, which means that they can get to the old certificates as needed.

Why Consolidated Compliance Reporting Matters
Compliance information may be distributed across multiple departments, business units, locations, regulators and reporting periods. Teams can dedicate a lot of time gathering, compiling and checking information before they can compile management reports if they don't have a centralized reporting system.
A consolidated reporting approach allows teams to get a unified view of the relevant compliance information according to specific reporting parameters.

- Consolidate compliance information
- Improve reporting visibility
- Simplify periodic compliance reviews
- Generate structured reports
- Track certification records
