# Exception List
The Exception List module provides a centralized view of all exceptions recorded across compliance activities. It allows users to review, track, and manage evidence exceptions that have been submitted when required documentation cannot be provided.
This module helps organizations maintain audit readiness by ensuring all exceptions are documented, traceable, and linked to the appropriate controls and compliance requirements.
