Adding Findings to an Audit

Whilst your audit is in progress you can add findings to your audit.

This function can only be carried out by the Lead Auditor/ Additional Auditor/ Host and whilst the Audit is in the statuses where Audit Finding Management is enabled.

By default, these statuses are: In Progress/ Audit Performed. Depending on the settings at your end, it may also be possible to manage findings while in Draft, Planned and/or Reported status.
