Course Description

Does the idea of an audit make your finance team anxious? If so, they're not alone. But you can alleviate your finance team's concerns through a culture of auditability, accountability, and preparation.

Auditability refers to the visibility your company provides into details of specific transactions. Accountability establishes who is responsible for initiating, reviewing, approving, and processing them.
