In order than an audit may be carried out in a systematic and efficient manner, the following steps
should be taken :
(1) Work must be carried on regularly and record kept of time of arrival/departure of the staff and also
of the work done each day;
(2) As far as possible, a definite portion of the work should be completed each day so that loose ends
are not left over for being tied up at a later date;
(3) Entries should be made in the audit note book and the audit programme initialled as a routine;
(4) Coloured pencils and different type of ticks must be employed to indicate the various audit
processes which have been applied and their significance must not be disclosed to the client;
(5) All the vouchers after examination must be immediately cancelled with an audit stamp;
(6) Staff members should refrain from discussing the client’s affairs amongst themselves and with
outsiders.METHODS OF WORK
