# Manage governance documents

Use the catalogue, prepare required documents and track your documents.

> **Access:** organization administrator. Subject to enabled modules and your plan.

## Browse documents

Open **Compliance → Documents**. The workspace separates your documents, documents to produce, the template catalogue and settings available to your account.

*The catalogue helps you start a document suited to an identified need. · [Open full-size screenshot](https://docs.cisapp.eu/images/en/governance.webp)*

## Create or import

1. Review required documents or the catalogue to find a suitable template.
2. Start creation and complete the offered information.
3. Open the created document to adapt its content to your organization.
4. Use import if you already have a document to bring into the workspace.
5. Review and save information before sharing.

## Configure the scope

Governance settings determine what is proposed to your organization. Changing them requires appropriate administrative access. Check the effects before applying a change.

## Expected outcome

Your organization’s documents reflect its context rather than an unadapted template. A governance document and assessment evidence may be related in your process, but their permissions and tracking still need separate checks.

## Common difficulties

If a template is missing, check filters, language and scope. If editing is unavailable, check access. To share files, see [Files and classification](https://docs.cisapp.eu/en/collaboration/files).
