Step-by-step guide

1. Welcome to easy AML. In this guide we'll walk you through how to create, view and export your ML/TF Risk Assessments - including navigating your assessment results, reviewing your obligations, and downloading your report as a PDF. In the left navigation (open directly), open **Compliance** and select **ML/TF Risk Assessment.**
2. You'll land on the AML/CTF Compliance Risk Assessment page. This shows all your assessments - their status, approval status, and program start date.
3. To start a new one, select **New Assessment.**
4. A prompt will appear with some important information about the process - it takes around 25 to 30 minutes, you can save and resume at any time, and there are no wrong answers. When you're ready, select **I understand** to begin.
5. The questionnaire will open at the **Business Structure** section. Work through each section in order, answering questions based on how your business currently operates. You can save a draft at any time and come back to finish it later.
6. Once you've submitted your assessment you'll be taken back to the assessments list. Select the active assessment row to open a summary panel showing its status, approval status, overall risk rating, and progress checklist.
7. Select **View Assessment** to open it in full.
8. Inside the assessment you'll see your **Overall Risk Assessment** at the top - showing your overall risk rating and a breakdown across Service Risk, Customer Risk, Delivery Risk, Environment Risk, Operational Risk, and Jurisdiction Risk.
9. Select **Program Details** to review your governance structure and program start date. This is where you can update your governance selection if needed before finalising.
10. Select **Obligations** to see the full list of AML/CTF obligations that apply to your business based on your risk profile - including required items like your AML/CTF Program, Customer Due Diligence, AUSTRAC Reporting, and Record Keeping.
11. Select **Answers** to review a complete record of every response submitted during your assessment, organised by section. This is your audit trail.
12. Select **Approvals** to see who has approved the assessment and when. This confirms your governance sign-off is in place.
13. Click Export PDFTo save a copy of your assessment, select **Export PDF** in the top right corner. Your report will begin downloading automatically.
14. The button will show **Downloading** while the file is being prepared - your PDF will save to your device shortly after.
15. To delete an in-progress assessment you no longer need, select the **delete icon** on that row.
16. A confirmation prompt will appear - select **Delete** to confirm, or **Cancel** to go back. Note this action cannot be undone.\ \ This concludes how you create, view and export your ML/TF Risk Assessments in easyAML.
