Completing the Audit 

Prerequisites

An audit must be released before it can be completed. In addition, it may be necessary to have confirmed audit results, to have executed the valuation of the audit results, and to have created an audit report.

Procedure

...

       1.      Access audit management. See Accessing Audit Management.

       2.      Open the required audit.

       3.      Choose the Result tab page.

       4.      Choose the Signature pushbutton.

The system now checks if any corrective/preventive actions exist for this audit. If necessary, the system will open these actions.

If outstanding actions exist for an audit, the status Outstanding Actions is set by the system.

It is now no longer possible to process the audit and the audit questions or to create and valuate audit results.

       5.      To complete the audit, process as follows:

¡        If no outstanding actions exist for an audit, choose Set ® Complete.

This completes the audit.

¡        If outstanding actions exist for an audit, choose Set ® Complete with Outstanding Actions.

If you have processed any outstanding actions, you must confirm the completion of these actions. When you set the status Completed for the last action that was outstanding, the system automatically sets the status Actions Completed and Completed for the audit. This completes the audit.

¡        If there are outstanding actions for an audit, process these actions and then confirm their completion. When you set the status Completed for the last action that was outstanding, the system automatically sets the status Actions Completed for the audit. You can then manually set the status Completed in the audit. This completes the audit.

Result

The audit is completed.
