Creating an internal auditor

 

 

Prerequisites

  • Access to the File > Internal auditor (AU005) menu.
  • User previously registered in SoftExpert Administration.
  • Requirements previously created in SoftExpert Requirement.

 

Introduction

An auditor is a professional who assesses an organization's processes, records, and operations to ensure compliance with norms and regulations. 

Their roles include analyzing internal controls, identifying risks, suggesting improvements, issuing reports, and tracking the implementation of adjustments.

In short, it can be said that an auditor is someone trained to carry out a quality audit.

An internal auditor, in their turn, performs the roles of an auditor, but acts as an employee of the organization, or is tied to it economically.

Compared to an external auditor, their main difference is in the relationship of employment dependence on the company where they carry out the audit.

See how to add the internal auditors who will be responsible for risk and control plan audits in SoftExpert Audit:
