SAP Audit Management is an SAP solution for managing internal audit processes throughout the audit lifecycle. It supports audit planning, preparation, execution, findings management, reporting, and follow-up activities.

The main audit lifecycle includes planning, preparation, execution, reporting, and follow-up. SAP Audit Management provides functions for managing activities and information across these phases.

The Audit Universe is a repository of auditable items within an organization. Auditable items can represent processes, activities, organizational areas, programs, or other entities that can be subject to audit.

An auditable item represents an entity that can be audited. It can be associated with risks and dimensions and can subsequently be assigned to audits or audit plans after the required lifecycle processing.

Risk-based auditing prioritizes audit activities according to identified risks and their significance. SAP Audit Management supports associating risks with auditable items and using them when developing audit plans and determining audit scope.

Risks represent potential events or conditions that may negatively affect organizational objectives. Risk information can be used during audit planning and risk-based audit prioritization.

Controls represent mechanisms or activities designed to reduce or manage identified risks. SAP Audit Management maintains control information that can be used during risk-based auditing and control testing.

Dimensions provide additional organizational or classification information for audit planning and analysis. They can help categorize and structure auditable items, risks, audits, and other audit information.

An audit plan defines the audit scope for a particular period and can include risks, auditable items, processes, organizations, and other dimensions. It also supports determining resources, budget, and timelines for planned audits.

A rolling audit plan can be continuously adapted to changing audit requirements and can carry unfinished audits into a successor plan. A non-rolling plan generally has a fixed period and scope.

An audit plan group provides a higher-level structure for organizing audit plans. In a two-level planning approach, risks can be selected at the group level and then distributed into individual audit plans.

In one-level planning, audit plans are created directly. In two-level planning, an audit plan group is created first and then divided into individual audit plans.

An audit plan can be submitted for review through the configured workflow and subsequently released when it is ready for execution. SAP provides workflow-based status processing for audit plans.

Audit prioritization determines which risks, processes, or auditable items should receive audit attention first. Risk information, organizational importance, audit history, and defined planning criteria can be considered when establishing priorities.

An audit engagement represents a specific audit activity created to examine a defined scope, process, risk, or organizational area. It contains information needed to execute and document the audit.

An audit can be created from an audit plan or directly without an audit plan. The audit is then prepared and initiated according to the configured audit lifecycle and workflow.

Audit initiation starts the execution lifecycle of a specific audit. After an audit is initiated, it proceeds into the preparation phase where detailed audit activities and work programs can be prepared.

Audit scope defines the boundaries and areas that will be examined during an audit. It can include specific processes, organizational units, risks, controls, periods, or other auditable dimensions.

An audit objective describes what the audit is intended to evaluate or verify. Objectives help auditors define the purpose, scope, procedures, evidence requirements, and expected audit results.

An audit work program defines the detailed procedures and activities that auditors perform during fieldwork. It can contain work program steps, assignments, responsibilities, and documentation requirements.

Work packages divide audit work into specific tasks or areas of responsibility. They can be assigned to responsible users so that individual audit activities can be planned, performed, and reviewed.

Audit fieldwork is the execution stage where auditors perform audit procedures and collect supporting evidence. It can include interviews, observations, control testing, document reviews, and other audit activities.

Working papers contain documentation supporting the audit procedures and conclusions. SAP Audit Management supports creating, editing, reviewing, and managing working papers throughout the audit lifecycle.

Audit evidence can be documented and associated with audit activities or working papers. Evidence supports the auditor's evaluation, findings, conclusions, and final audit report.

Control testing evaluates whether defined controls are designed and operating as expected. Auditors can document testing procedures, evidence, observations, and results as part of audit fieldwork.

A control test result records the outcome of testing a particular control. The result can contribute to identifying deficiencies, generating findings, and determining required corrective actions.

An audit finding documents an issue, deficiency, or observation identified during audit work. Findings can contain information such as criteria, condition, cause, consequence, and recommendation.

Finding classification organizes audit findings according to configured categories or types. Classification helps auditors analyze findings consistently and supports reporting and follow-up activities.

Finding rating represents the assessed significance or severity of an identified audit issue according to configured organizational criteria. Ratings can help prioritize remediation and management attention.

An action plan defines the corrective activities required to address an audit finding. It can include action details, responsibilities, deadlines, status information, and follow-up requirements.

Action plan workflows control the lifecycle of corrective actions from creation and submission through processing and completion. SAP provides predefined action-plan statuses such as Draft, Submitted, Open, In Process, Completed, and Follow-Up Required.

Audit issue management involves documenting identified issues, assigning responsibility, defining corrective actions, tracking progress, and monitoring remediation. It helps connect audit findings with follow-up activities.

Remediation tracking monitors the progress of corrective actions associated with findings. Auditors and responsible users can follow action-plan statuses and determine whether additional follow-up is required.

Audit follow-up verifies whether findings and associated action plans have been adequately addressed. It helps auditors determine whether corrective actions are completed and whether additional audit activity is required.

Audit reporting converts audit results, findings, action plans, and supporting information into formal audit reports. SAP provides predefined report templates for generating audit reports in formats such as Word and PDF.

An audit report can contain audit information, executive summaries, findings, recommendations, action plans, and other configured audit results. Interactive report templates can also support editing findings and action plans before synchronization with the SAP system.

Audit report templates provide predefined structures for generating standardized audit reports. SAP Audit Management includes templates for online report generation and interactive report scenarios.

An interactive audit report allows authorized users to work with draft findings and action plans outside the core application and synchronize supported changes back to SAP Audit Management. This can support offline review and editing activities.

SAP Audit Management uses configurable status schemas and workflows for activities such as audit plans, preparation, findings, reports, and action plans. Workflow processing helps control review, approval, release, and completion steps.

Audit statuses represent the current state of an audit or related audit object within its lifecycle. Statuses help control which activities can be performed and indicate progress from planning through completion and follow-up.

Authorization controls access to audit information and activities according to user roles and permissions. For example, access to the Audit Universe and the ability to maintain auditable items requires the appropriate authorizations.

SAP Audit Management consists of application functions for audit planning, preparation, execution, reporting, and follow-up together with master data such as risks, controls, dimensions, and organizational information. Its architecture can integrate with SAP governance, risk, and compliance environments.

SAP Audit Management can work with SAP GRC-related risk and control processes to support risk-based auditing and governance activities. Integration can help auditors use relevant risk and control information during audit planning and execution.

Risk information can be used to support risk-based audit planning and prioritization. SAP Audit Management can associate auditable items with risks so that audit coverage can be planned according to organizational risk exposure.

Process Control manages business controls and compliance-related activities, while Audit Management focuses on audit planning and execution. Integration between governance and audit processes can provide auditors with relevant control information for audit activities.

Audit resource management involves planning and assigning people and other resources required for audit activities. Resource planning can consider auditor availability, workload, required skills, timelines, and planned audit scope.

Audit scheduling helps organizations plan when audits should be performed and how they fit within an audit period. Audit plans can define timelines, scope, resources, and budget requirements for planned audit activities.

Important configuration areas include audit plan types, workflows, status schemas, roles and authorizations, master data, audit dimensions, risks, controls, report templates, and audit lifecycle settings. Proper configuration determines how audit processes operate within the SAP environment.

Practical projects can include Audit Universe and Annual Audit Planning, Risk-Based Audit Planning, Audit Engagement and Fieldwork Management, Audit Findings and Corrective Action Management, Regulatory Compliance Auditing, and Enterprise Audit Reporting Dashboard development. These projects reflect the planning, execution, findings, compliance, and reporting areas included in the Edubrights curriculum.

SAP Audit Management training can help develop skills in Audit Universe management, risk-based auditing, audit planning, audit scheduling, audit engagement management, work programs, working papers, evidence management, control testing, findings management, action plans, remediation tracking, audit reporting, workflow management, SAP GRC integration, and governance and compliance processes.
