DEFINITION: Section
Programs are divided into sections to make scoping objectives easier.
DEFINITION: Objective
A guideline or actionable goal for upholding the compliance requirement in a section.

Intro to the Scope Objectives Page
The Scope Objectives page is comprised of three columns as follows:
- Sections – A program is divided into sections to easily manage objectives.
- Objectives – These objectives can be added to a section.
- In-Scope Objectives – These objectives are scoped to the program.
TIP
In-scope objectives determine the extent of controls required to complete buildout of your compliance program.
Scoping Objectives
Objectives can be added to sections individually and in bulk. Alternatively, they can be removed individually and in bulk.
TIP
Not all objectives apply to your organization. Review your organization's processes and transactions to decide applicable objectives.
To scope objectives to the sections in your program, complete the following steps:
Access the Scope Objectives page.
- Select a section in the Sections column.
Review objectives available for scoping in the Objectives column.
- Click + beside the available objective. The objective is moved to the In-Scope Objectives column.
If all objectives meet the requirement of the section, click Add all +.
TIP
If you add all objectives, you will need to map control(s) to each of them. Even though a control may be used with multiple objectives, simply adding all objectives to each section may result in an excess number of controls for your organization
Select the next section in the Sections column.
TIP
Notice that new objectives pertinent to the selected section display in the Objectives column. Objectives previously scoped to other sections display in the In-Scope Objectives column.
Continue selecting sections and adding relevant objectives until all objectives deemed important to your organization have been scoped.
