14 April 2012 Yes. Auditor can send confirmation directly to debtors or creditors for confirming balances. However, the auditors letter should also be accompanied by Company's authorisation letter to confirm the balances to auditor. There is no specific format for it. Refer Standards on auditing where u may get some format.
