Back to the track — External Audit Associate
Audit documentation: a file that supports the opinion
External-audit documentation starts with risk and assertion, establishes source and population, and records nature, timing, extent, items, results and evidence. It explains significant matters, judgements and contradictions and preserves preparer, reviewer and misstatement trails without taking ownership of management's journals. Final assembly is administrative, later changes are dated and reasoned, and the Saudi file is retained for at least ten years.
