Adding an evidence record

Adding evidence is deliberately light: two fields and you are done. Detail can come later or never.

The two required fields

1. On any outcome in the Assessment tab, expand the evidence line and choose to add a new record.
2. Enter a title (for example, OT Security Policy) and what it demonstrates (for example, board-approved policy covering OT exists).
3. Save. The record is created and linked to that outcome in one step.

Optional detail

Behind the add-detail toggle: a document reference (OT-POL-004), type and status, location (where the document lives), owner, version, document date and a review-due date that drives staleness flags. All of it can be added later by editing the record in the Evidence tab; edits propagate everywhere the record is linked.

Where to add records

Two places, same register: from an outcome's evidence panel while assessing (created linked to that outcome), or from the Evidence tab in bulk (created unlinked, for linking later). When a record already exists, link it to further outcomes instead of creating a duplicate: the panel's link-existing search and the link picker both do this without retyping anything.
