Sending the Notification Letter
Having completed specification required for audit execution, the audit director can send a notification letter to inform persons who will be auditees in the course of the audit.
Sending this notification letter is not included in the workflow. It precedes the next step in the workflow which consists of publishing the audit. See Publishing Audits.
Creating notification letters
To create the audit notification letter:
Click the icon of the audit and select Deliverables > Notification Letter.A message asks if you want to open or save the file.
The document presents the comment entered in characteristics of the audit.
When the document has been saved, you can open and modify it.
Connecting the notification letter to the audit
The file is generated from audit content, but is not connected by default to the audit.
To connect the notification letter to the audit and make it a business document:
1. Open the properties of the audit and select the Documents page.
2. In the Business Document sub-tab, drag-and-drop the notification letter you have just created.
The document appears in the list of documents attached to the audit.
In the business document properties, you may specify “Notification Letter” as Document Pattern.For more details on business documents, see Using Business Documents.
