Summary

The Risk overview dashboard provides a summary of procedural risk. For each procedure, a group of control points produces a risk score (i.e., an aggregate of control point scores).

Learn about the Risk overview dashboard and how it is used in Subledger analyses in MindBridge:

1. "View by" dashboard pivot
2. Filters
3. Stratified risk groupings
4. Risk over time graph
5. Top riskiest graph
6. Control point summary
7. Export graphs and work with annotations

Go to the Risk overview tab

1. Select the logo in the MindBridge sidebar.
   You will go to go to the Organizations page.
2. Select View in line with the desired organization, or click anywhere in the organization row.
   You will go to go to the Engagements page.
3. Select View in line with the desired engagement, or click anywhere in the engagement row.
   You will to go to the Data page.
4. Select View Analysis on the desired analysis*.
   You will go to the Risk overview tab on the Analyze page.

*Tip: If you are already in an analysis, open the sidebar ( ) and select the analysis from the Analyze menu ().

Pivot the view

MindBridge offers several menus that pivot the data on this dashboard so you can see it from different angles:

• Risk type — Use this menu to select the type of risk you want to see. All data on the page will update to reflect your selection.
• Group — Use this menu to select the categorical group you want to see. The 2 lower graphs will update to reflect your selection.
• Amount — Use this menu to select the quantity or monetary amount you want to see. All data on the page will update to reflect your selection.

Open each of the View by menus and select the risk categories you want to see on the dashboard.

Filters

Filter results on this dashboard to focus on the most relevant data.

• If multiple values within the same filter menu are selected, they will be added together.
• If multiple values between different filters are selected, the selections will intersect.

For example, selecting Vendor A and Vendor B will include both, and selecting the invoice Entry Type will display how the selected vendors intersect with that entry type.

Find additional filters with the More menu.
 

Stratified risk groupings

MindBridge summarizes the items in your dataset and stratifies them into high, medium, and low risk groupings. Each tile at the top of this dashboard displays details about the given risk grouping, including:

• The risk level
• The total value for the given grouping
• The total number of items found in the dataset (these may be transactions with monetary amounts, a quantity of physical objects, or something else) 
• The percentage of the dataset the grouping represents

Select a tile to drill down to the data table and see the complete list of items for that risk grouping.

The risk range for each risk level is summarized below:

Depending on your configuration of this dashboard, risk scores may be averaged, summed, or maxed across the group, meaning the score shown will be the highest scored item.
 

Risk over time graph

This graph looks at risk over a period of time, based on the view and filters you selected at the top of the dashboard.

This graph provides you with insights into the overall health of your invoices over time. Using the filters, you can quickly narrow your focus and view the data from a monthly or quarterly perspective.

Use the graph

Hover over a bar on the graph to reveal:

• Date: The specific date the bar represents.
• Risk: The number of high, medium, and low risk items within the selected period. 

Use the legend to the right of the graph to toggle each risk category off or on. Inactive categories are shown in grey.

Select any bar on the graph to drill-down to the data table and review a detailed list of entries for the selected time frame and risk category.

To adjust the time window displayed, click and drag the time slider to the desired range.

Top riskiest graph

This graph provides insight into a given risk score based on the view you selected at the top of the dashboard.

The y-axis displays the risk score you selected, and the x-axis displays the quantity or amount, allowing you to easily see high risk and high monetary value data points.

By combining overall risk with materiality, this graph gives you a quick view of areas to focus on so you can determine what thresholds are worth a second look.

Use the graph

Hover over a point on the graph to reveal:

• Pivot: The unique identifier within the selected category of risk
• Quantity/Amount: The monetary value or quantity of all items attributed to this pivot, either averaged or summed, depending on your configuration file
• Risk category: The selected category of risk
• Share: The share of monetary value attributed to this user compared to the whole, reflected as a percentage (%)
• Entry count: The total number of line items attributed to this pivot

Use the legend to the right of the graph to toggle each risk category on or off. Inactive categories are shown in grey.

Select any segment to drill-down to the data table and review a detailed list of entries for the selected time frame and risk category.

Adjust the scope of the data

By default, this graph displays the top 25 items by risk. To adjust the scope of the data, open the menu to select between viewing the:

• Top 10
• Top 25
• Top 50
• Top 100

Control point summary

The Control points section is located on the right side of the dashboard. It lists the control points that are:

• Contributing to risk scoring — These have a weight between 1 and 100 and are factored into risk scores
• Not contributing to risk scoring — These have a weight of 0 and therefore do not contribute to any risk score
• Unavailable with current data — These could not be run against the dataset due to missing files or column mappings

The number next to each control point indicates how many items were flagged as high risk in the dataset.

Control points are listed in ascending order, starting with control points with the fewest number of associated transactions. Control points that did not contribute to risk scoring appear on this list as well, and are shown to have zero ("0") corresponding transactions.

Use the drill-down icon ( ) to the right of a control point to go to the data table and view a list of relevant high-risk items. 
 

Export components

You can export any of the 3 graphs from this dashboard, as well as the Control points section.

1. Find the component you want to export.
2. Select the Export icon ( ).
   The data will be exported as a .xlsx file to your computer's default download location.

Work with annotations

Annotations ( ) allow you to document and share the insights you have gained from MindBridge. You can add, view, edit and delete annotations and comments on any of the graphs on this dashboard.
