Edit Procedure Conditions

You can set a condition on a procedure to delete or insert procedures based on a response or calculation.

Procedure conditions are best used in cases where:

  • Impact of a response is limited to one, or a few, individual procedures,
  • Condition is dependent on more than a “yes” or “no” type of response and,
  • Relevant factors in procedure conditions (responses, calculations) are not known or completable at the beginning of the engagement.

To edit a procedure condition:

  1. In a checklist or work program, right-click on a procedure and select Edit Procedure Condition to open the corresponding dialog.
  2. Fill in the procedure conditions.

  1. Click OK to add the conditions. A procedure condition icon () displays beside the procedure to indicate there is a condition.

Notes:

  • When editing conditions for a common procedure, you can choose to apply the conditions globally across all instances of the common procedure, or at the document level. Common procedures with document level conditions display the same procedure condition icon, but with a red dot to indicate it is unique ().
  • Common procedures with document level (unique) conditions can be reverted back to the global condition by selecting the common procedure and clicking Revert.
