Rejecting a Workflow

Summary: How to reject a workflow request in RiskSense.

You can reject a workflow unless it has already expired. You may want to reject a workflow if the reason for the exception no longer exists. This option allows you to discontinue a workflow prior to its expiration date. Whether the workflow temporarily closes the finding or changes finding severity, rejecting the workflow reverses its impact on mapped findings.

After you reject a workflow, you can no longer make any changes to it. You can copy it if you need to create a similar workflow.

To reject a workflow, navigate to the Manage > Workflows page.

Find the workflow you want to reject. Open the Options menu and choose Reject.

In the Reject Workflow dialogue, add the reason why the workflow is being rejected to the User Notes box. Once you finish, click Submit.

The workflow’s State is now Rejected.
