What's new in Audit 26.00

Learn about the features and fixes available to you in the latest release of Audit System.

For details on the Audit International content updates included in this release, see Content Updates.

Features

This release includes the following new features:

  • Engagement file metadata now includes version information. This improves the efficiency of Caseware Cloud and the Batch Tool when determining whether engagement files require updates.

  • Improved the template update process so that engagement files no longer appear to be read-only unless at least one file is not SmartSync-safe.

  • Added a warning message when you attempt to delete an assertion associated with significant risks in the FSA.

Fixes

This release includes fixes to the following issues:

  • Attempting to reinsert deleted manual documents using the AOCR results in a script error. This error does not occur if the documents are reinserted using the Document Library.

  • Account annotations do not appear after being added to an audit area.

  • After cleaning up an engagement file, certain sub-procedures no longer sign off automatically, and if you sign off the sub-procedures manually, the result column disappears.

  • After enabling the Override procedure response type option and closing the Edit procedure dialog, the option is immediately disabled.

  • Deleting all procedures from a group does not delete the group itself.

  • Imported controls do not import any linked procedures. This issue does not occur when importing risks or reportable items.

  • Reportable items that are linked to either a risk or control from Working Papers cause the association to appear duplicated in the dialog.

  • Renamed headers in the Risk report and Report menu are not renamed in the document filter.

  • Filtering the Control design/implementation document using the Assertions drop-down results in a blank report.

  • Attempting to import more than 30 risks into a work program or checklist results in an unknown error.

  • Checking for updates in forms with signed-off procedures incorrectly increments the form's content version, preventing it from receiving further updates.

  • When performing an engagement update, the Update All option does not apply some of the selected options from AO - General options, for example, Select all updated documents by default.

  • After performing a template update, the selected option in the Planning drop-down menu of the FSA worksheet is reset.

  • Incrementing the content version of a template document and then updating the client file does not bring the prerequisite settings from the template into the client file.

  • After performing a template or engagement update, CaseView documents take a longer time to open than usual.

  • After performing a "functionality only" engagement update from 23.00 to a newer version, the Working Papers file version still shows 23.00.
