Audit Module

This guide is intended primarily for the user of SIGTAS. It details the procedures and functionalities making it possible to create audit cases. It is also used to calculate the risk rating of an audit case, to plan audits and to implement audit programs.

This module is composed of several large sections. Each section is treated individually and presents the main functionalities of the component. This page displays all the functionalities available in the Audit module. The display order of the sections corresponds to that of SIGTAS (left section of the home menu).

In order to lighten the content of the guides, the following sections do not document the procedures for closing, modifying, and deleting, as they function the same way for all pages in all modules. However, these functionnalities are described in more detail in the Close, Edit, and Delete section of the About SIGTAS guide.
