Let's get ISMS Dashboard set up
We'll walk you through five quick steps — database, admin account, license, and branding. Nothing is final until you confirm each step, and you can always revisit settings from the dashboard later. Integrations (Espo CRM, ManageEngine Endpoint Central), users, roles and email can be configured from the admin menu after setup.

Approval Engine
Enable the reusable approval workflow + OTP re-authentication
The approval engine powers multi-step workflows for Documents (and later Assets, Tickets, Acknowledgements). Transitions can require OTP verification via email (always on) and optionally SMS via Twilio. Leaving Twilio blank limits OTPs to email only — safe to configure later from the admin menu.
When off, documents continue to use the legacy direct-status flow. You can flip this anytime from Admin → Integrations.
OTP Delivery
Twilio SMS (optional)
Add Twilio credentials to enable SMS delivery of OTPs. Without these, OTPs will be sent via email only.
Setup Complete!
