Audit 101: Part 3 - Audit Wrapup

Course Description

For any process, the planning, the steps, and the wrap-up all are important parts. Without proper planning, the overall tasks are planning with various resources. In the crucial steps, the planning process is executed. In the wrap-up, the review, quality assurance, and credibility aspects are fine-tuned and made ready for presentation. Just like the first two, the last step bears equal importance in the process of audit. 

Without a proper warp-up process, the ‘almost done’ turns into ‘pending’.
