Mandatory Documents
Assign topic to the user
Please note that regarding controls from Annex A, you can have 3 scenarios:
1) The control is not applicable – in this case do document needs to be written
2) The control is applicable and the document related to the control is mandatory – the control requires activities to be performed and documented, so a document needs to be written
3) The control is applicable and the document related to the control is not mandatory - the control requires activities to be only performed, so no document needs to be written, it can be implemented only through performing activities
The scenario 2 is the case for the documents related to the controls listed in the mandatory documents. If those controls are identified as applicable, you need to develop the related documents, or you will not be compliant with the control.
