Learning Objectives

  • Apply Power BI data preparation and reconciliation techniques to build reliable audit testing populations.
  • Design DAX-based exception tests for duplicate payments, segregation-of-duties conflicts, thresholds and unusual timing patterns.
  • Evaluate exception populations using value, rate, materiality and composite risk-scoring measures.
  • Develop audit dashboards that connect executive summaries, test-level detail and transaction-level evidence.
  • Assess governance, security, refresh and version-control practices that support reproducible audit analytics.

Course Overview

Audit teams increasingly need repeatable, full-population testing that can move beyond one-off spreadsheet analysis. This advanced session shows how Power BI can be structured as an audit analytics and reporting layer, helping practitioners prepare data, run documented exception tests, and communicate results through refreshable dashboards.

The course works through a purchase-to-pay dataset covering general ledger entries, accounts payable invoices, purchase orders, vendor master data, and user access. Participants examine extraction and reconciliation controls, Power Query transformation patterns, star-schema design, DAX measures, duplicate-payment tests, segregation-of-duties conflicts, threshold and timing tests, risk scoring, materiality parameters, and exception follow-up measures.

Major Topic:

  • Audit data extraction, reconciliation and quality profiling
  • Power Query transformation and star-schema design
  • DAX measures and repeatable exception testing
  • Duplicate payments, segregation-of-duties and timing tests
  • Composite risk scoring, materiality and follow-up measures
  • Audit dashboards, governance and performance tuning

The course also demonstrates how to design assurance-grade dashboards that support review, evidence, ownership, and remediation. Participants will see how governance, row-level security, refresh monitoring, version control, and performance tuning help make audit analytics more reproducible, reviewable, and scalable.
