PCI evidence collection failed error quarterly scan report missing failure

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in PCI evidence collection by doing this first: pull the approved scanning vendor report for the missing quarter from the scanner portal, confirm the dates cover the full quarter and the result is passing, and file it against the PCI control for that quarter. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

quarterly scan report missing

Use this when

• The operation fails with this exact problem: quarterly scan report missing.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• An audit, review, or request is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a platform outage notice or a general sign-in failure. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in PCI evidence collection, and copy the full message plus the item, account, or request involved into the run notes. Verify: the problem is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in an old log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: pull the approved scanning vendor report for the missing quarter from the scanner portal, confirm the dates cover the full quarter and the result is passing, and file it against the PCI control for that quarter. Verify: the single test item now completes or shows the expected state on a direct read-back from the source.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same connection, mapping, owner, or credential, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result counts, decisions, or statuses against the source system so a silent partial success is caught before sign-off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
5. Rerun the original operation on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original problem does not appear.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input, and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied, and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

The scan ran but the report was never exported from the scanner portal into the evidence set, so the quarter looks unscanned to the assessor.

TL;DR

Fix this in vendor evidence collection by doing this first: request the vendor current SOC 2 report and bridge letter covering the gap months, attach both to the vendor record, and mark the questionnaire item answered only once the report dates cover the audit period. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Use this when

Why it happens

The vendor report on file expired before the period ended and no one requested the new one, so the questionnaire cannot evidence the vendor control environment.

TL;DR

Fix this by acting on the exact problem first: check what the scraper actually returned when trying to pull a vendor SOC 2 report into the risk record on one vendor, update it to wait for the page content to load and to read the current page structure, and confirm it returns the expected vendor fields instead of an empty set before the full run. Do not rerun the same operation unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one agent run for one vendor first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the results.

scraper failed returning empty results when agent tried to pull a vendor SOC 2 report into the risk record error scraping failure

Use this when

• The operation in the agent workflow fails with this exact problem: scraper failed returning empty results when agent tried to pull a vendor SOC 2 report into the risk record error scraping failure.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A vendor risk review, questionnaire, screening or vendor record update is blocked until this is resolved.

Not for this skill when

• The notice is a platform outage from the vendor. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with a risk judgement or a tier decision. That is a risk owner decision, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure on one named agent run for one vendor in the agent workflow and record the full problem text plus the vendor, record or report involved. Verify: the failure is reproduced on demand on a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: check what the scraper actually returned when trying to pull a vendor SOC 2 report into the risk record on one vendor, update it to wait for the page content to load and to read the current page structure, and confirm it returns the expected vendor fields instead of an empty set before the full run. Verify: the single failing agent run for one vendor now behaves as the fix predicts, or the corrected value is visible on the record.
3. Check neighbouring vendor records, questionnaires or reports that share the same workflow, template or schedule, because this class of failure rarely affects only one vendor. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Rerun the original operation in the agent workflow on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original problem does not appear.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth, the vendor supplied document, the questionnaire response or the risk record, so a silent partial success is caught. Verify: values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the vendor record or review log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

How to fix - scraper failed returning empty results when agent tried to pull a vendor SOC 2 report into the risk record error scraping failure

The how to phrasing for the same failure in the agent workflow. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

The agent workflow troubleshooting for this failure

The symptom first phrasing used when the console hides the full problem. Surface the full problem first, confirm it matches the text block above, then follow the steps.

Why it happens

Scrapers return empty results when a page loads its content late, changes its structure or requires an active session, and an agent that treats an empty result as a real answer continues as if no vendor data exists.

Edge cases

• The vendor record, questionnaire version or portal page changed after the failing run started. Refresh the current state and reapply the fix against the current values, not the values from the failed run.
• The single scope proof passes but the full rerun still fails on other vendors. Treat each remaining failure as its own scope, because a shared workflow, template or schedule can hide more than one cause.
• The source systems disagree on the correct value. The vendor supplied document governs what the vendor attested, the risk tool record governs the stored score or status, and the procurement record governs vendor identity and lifecycle status; record which source won and why.

Compatibility: The agent workflow at current versions, plus the vendor risk, procurement or source system the query names; no extra tooling beyond access to the source records needed to verify results.
