  • All audit forms from the ISA Engagement Forms - individual forms to document planning, risk assessment/responses, and completion of the audit. Core audit forms are applicable for most audit engagements while other forms should only be used where applicable to the engagement.
  • Materiality worksheet and key materiality information at the top of most documents
  • Financial Statement Areas worksheet (FSA)
  • Audit Plans and Procedures - lead sheets and audit work programs
  • Identified Misstatements - unrecorded journal entries (summarised by factual/projected/judgemental) and a summary of unadjusted misstatements.
  • Risk database where risks can be easily added throughout the engagement and summary reports produced.
  • Reportable item database where reportable items can be accumulated throughout the engagement and a report to management/those charged with governance can be prepared.
  • Control database where controls can be easily added throughout the engagement and linked to risks. Control matrix reports can be generated showing risks and related controls.
