Closing / Reopening Audits

Once all the audit activities have been completed, and any resulting CA/PAs or incidents have been closed, the audit itself should be closed.

To do this:

1. You must ensure that the Actual End Date field has been completed.
2. Click the icon above the summary section. The Closed By and Closed Date fields will be completed with your name and today's date, although you can change this information if required.
3. If the electronic signature feature is turned on, you may need to enter your username and password before you can close the audit.

Once you close the audit, you will not be able to make any changes to it. If you wish to reopen the audit:

1. Click the icon above the summary section.
2. You will need to enter a reason for reopening the audit, then click [OK]. This reason will be stored in the notes section of the audit.
