Monitor compliance issues

Discover effective strategies to monitor compliance alerts and enhance regulatory adherence within your organization.

The Compliance issues page lists every device currently reporting a status you flagged as non-compliant. It is a live triage queue: issues appear when a device drifts and disappear when it recovers, with nothing to acknowledge.


 

Overview

Go to Compliance > Compliance issues.

The list refreshes each time a device syncs. There is no scan to launch and no acknowledge action — it shows what is wrong right now, not a ticket queue.


 

What the columns show

Column

What it shows

Status

The non-compliant status the device reported, for example NOTENCRYPTED or OFFLINE7_DAYS

Control name

The MDM control or rule that raised it

Type

The category — encryption, OS update, antivirus, and so on

Device name

The affected device

Date

When it was last evaluated. Sorted most recent first


 

How to use

  1. Open Compliance > Compliance issues.
  2. Narrow the list. Filter by Device or Type, hide the columns you do not need, and save the view if you will reuse it. The default is All compliance issues.
  3. Click a row to open the device drawer.
  4. Act from the drawer. Review the device's status across every rule, jump to the related MDM control, or run a remediation action such as pushing a profile, locking or wiping.

Sorting and grouping are not available on this table.

A needs attention indicator also appears wherever a device is shown elsewhere, so problems surface without opening this page.

 

 

How alerts resolve

Issues clear by themselves. There is no acknowledge, snooze or close. An issue disappears when:

  • The device's status changes — encryption completes, the operating system updates, the device comes back online, the missing profile lands.
  • You change what that status does in the settings.

Viewing issues requires MDM_READ.

 

 

Tips and best practices

  • Triage by Type, not by device. Ten devices failing the same rule is usually one configuration problem, not ten problems.
  • Save a filtered view per issue type you own. Opening a saved view beats re-filtering every morning.
  • Use the device drawer rather than jumping between pages. It carries the full status and the remediation actions in one place.
  • If the same issue keeps returning, change the rule, not the device. A status that recurs across the fleet usually should not be flagged at all.
 

 

Troubleshooting and FAQ

Troubleshooting

  • An issue is still listed after the device was fixed. Issues recompute on device sync, not on demand. Wait for the next check-in.
  • You cannot sort or group the table. Neither is available here. Filter and save a view instead.
  • The list is overwhelming. Too many statuses are flagged. Set the transient ones back to Off, or use the exceptions and the grace period.

FAQ

  1. Can I acknowledge or snooze an issue?
     They clear when the device recovers or when you change the rule.
     
  2. How current is the list?
    It reflects the last sync of each device.
     
  3. Can I fix a device from this page?
    Yes. Open the device drawer and use the remediation actions there.
