Hi Jennifer,

Great paper :applause:

Hi everybody,

I've been asked to give some more information on how to assign risk levels in the audit reporting spreadsheets that Crusader and I attached.

So here is a one-page guideline. Let's keep in mind it is only a guideline, and I am not a RAB certified auditor. Post specific questions in the Cove for better insight than I can provide alone.

I hope this helps!

Jennifer,
I am just reviewing my audit process, so this info is SO useful.
Thank you.

Thank you.You're welcome. This job can feel so subjective, and it can be very hard to describe to non-QA folks what these risks mean so auditees will not feel hocus-pocused. Maybe this sort of thing would help.

I hope this helps!

Hi Jennifer,

This is a great one page summary :applause:and talks much more beyond that one page. It definitely helps :thanks:

I have now added the little spreadsheet in case anyone wants help with the formulas.
