Manage validation guidelines

We've expanded on our risk area functionality and added a new page to your Workspace: Risk Areas & Validation Guidelines.

This replaces the old Risk Areas set up under Organization, and allows you to customize guidelines associated with your model validation templates.

Enhancements

ValidMind Platform (v1.24.6)

Model inventory fields

Previously, we used custom fields to refer to your organization's unique additional fields for models as well as the default fields provided as suggestions by ​ValidMind. Custom fields has been renamed to model inventory fields, capturing all additional fields, and the terminology standardized across the ValidMind Platform and our documentation.

You can still require additional fields to be provided upon model registration, and work with a number of different types of fields.

Model lifecyle statuses

Previously, we used resource statuses to refer to the model stages made available for use in your model workflows. Resource statuses has been renamed to model lifecycle statuses, clarifying their function, and the terminology standardized across the ValidMind Platform and our documentation.

• Default statuses are provided for you as suggestions.
• You can add, edit, remove, and define your own custom statuses.
