## Before you begin

Role required: To access Employee Center, you must have the sn\_comp\_case.compliance\_case\_business\_user role.

## About this task

When submitting an anonymous report, don't include personal data about yourself or other individuals that could directly or indirectly reveal an identity. For example, do not include names, email addresses, or phone numbers.

Avoid including executable code, scripts, or unsupported special characters, which will be removed automatically during submission. For more information, refer to [Overview of Anonymous Reporting Center](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/governance-risk-compliance/grc-common-functions/grc-anonymous-reporting-center.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Self-Service** > **Employee Center**.

2.  On the **Employee Center** landing page, select **Risk and compliance**.

3.  Select the **Visit Anonymous Report Center** card.

    You're signed out of your employee account to maintain anonymity.

4.  Select **Continue**.

5.  On the ARC landing page, select **Submit a report anonymously**.
