Group 6- An audit program is a set of directions that the auditor and its team members need to follow for the proper execution of the audit. Thus, an auditor prepares a program that contains detailed information about various steps and audit procedures to be followed by the audit.

Advantage of Audit Programme

1. Job Supervision
- By having a well-developed audit program, the audit team. He is in a position to know how work progresses. This improves employee work productivity.

2. Save Time and Work
- This is carried out according to the instructions and protocols contained in the audit programme. The audit software clearly shows all the instructions to be given to the assistant, which helps to complete the job in time. Furthermore, the audit program helps perform company audit in the coming years.

3. Improves Efficiency
- Many of an auditor 's duties are divided into the number of staff considering their skill and knowledge which helps to complete the audit work properly. It enhances audit team members' accountability to the work they perform. Likewise, the jobs are split between the assistant staff depending on their calibre, which tends to improve efficiency.

4. Helps to Control
- An auditor may compare the work done by the assistants on the basis of an audit system that helps monitor their work if any weaknesses are present. It helps in ensuring that attention is given to all-important areas during the audit.

5. Helps maintain uniformity
- Audit plan support is to set all the things in advance, and they are provided with training and guidance. Works are divided among the assistant staff; therefore there is no chance that unaudited statements may be left. If the audit work is carried out on an annual basis on the basis of the audit program, uniformity can be maintained in the audit work which helps to compare the report of different years.

6. Helps to Make Responsible
- In the audit system the work of an assistant is clearly specified and the assistant places signature in the completed work. Reduces the number of misunderstandings between team members about audit work results. And, if any work is left out, an assistant can be made liable for such work.

7. Helps to Maintain Continuity
- The evaluation system clearly demonstrates the job completed and the task done procedures. And if any staff leaves the job or stays away, new workers will easily continue the job of an audit.

8. Useful for future and Present as Proof
- An auditor can present the audit program as evidence if he/she has been charged with malfeasance or negligence and may obtain clearance from such accusation. It requires the auditor explicitly to maintain a database of relevant knowledge for future audits and references.Upon completion of an audit serves audit record function and may be useful for future reference. The audit program can be presented in the court also.

Audit documentation is the record of procedures performed, evidence obtained, and conclusions reached as part of an audit. It shows auditors in later years how the audit was conducted. It can be used as a training tool for junior auditors.
