How do I access the Agile Control Report?
The Control Report discloses key information regarding the internal controls documented by the audit team and whether or not they are effective.
In order to populate the control report in Agile, we need to add controls to the engagement. For more information on how to add controls, review our How to add a new control? FAQ.
To access the “Control Report” in Agile;
1. Navigate to the Risk & Controls page.
2. Press the Controls tab. The screen will appear
(Alternatively you can launch workpaper 2-230 from the Document screen)
The Control report will list all controls documented by the audit team. However, once you have completed your testing of internal controls, you must then document the Design and Implementation, and Operating effectiveness attributes for each control.
When you press a control in this report, it will be presented in four sections:
1. Identification
2. Attributes
3. Design and Implementation
4. Operating effectiveness
Identification: This section will already be populated from the audit team’s initial assessment. You can edit anything in this area that may have changed since the initial documentation of this control.
Attributes: Like the previous section, Identification, the Attributes section will also be populated from the audit team’s initial assessment. You can edit anything in this area that may have changed since the initial documentation of this control.
Design and Implementation: This section was not available when the audit team initially documented the control. However, in the control report we can now access this area to determine whether the design of the control, the implementation and the walkthroughs were satisfactory. This information will be presented on the Control report summary.
This will also provide the audit team the necessary information to whether or not they need to refer this information to those charged with governance.
Operating effectiveness evaluation: This section was also not available when the audit team initially documented the control. However, now in the control report we can now access this area to document whether or not we tested the control within the last ‘three’ financial years and whether or not the control is effective or ineffective.
This will also provide the audit team the necessary information to whether or not they need to refer this information to those charged with governance.
