START WITH THE ACTUAL WORK

Why connect audit & compliance?

A review needs a defined scope, relevant evidence, accountable exceptions, and proof that corrective action happened. A folder of files is not enough.

WHAT THIS CAPABILITY BRINGS TOGETHER

Audit & Compliance: records, decisions, and handovers.

01

Review scope and ownership

Define the policy, process, period, and responsible reviewer.

02

Evidence in context

Associate records and significant changes with the requirement being examined.

03

Corrective-action tracking

Turn findings into owned actions with review and closure evidence.

A WORKED EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO

An audit needs evidence of the decision, not only activity

A reviewer asks why a student record was changed. A timestamp and username show an action occurred but may not explain its authorization or purpose.

The decision and its context

Connect the relevant change, approval evidence and responsible process. Limit review access to its purpose and retain records according to the institution’s agreed requirements.

What a complete outcome looks like

The reviewer should follow the event to its authority and outcome. An audit log is supporting evidence, not an automatic claim of certification or legal compliance.

FOLLOW THE HANDOVERWorkflow & ApprovalsApproval history provides the decision context behind controlled changes.

A CAPABILITY, NOT AN ISLAND

Connect audit & compliance with the next workflow.

The same institutional context should support the next responsible team’s action. Explore the connected capabilities.

WHEN THE DAY DOESN’T FOLLOW THE DEFAULT

A finding is marked complete without evidence

Return it for verification rather than closing the issue on an unsupported assertion.

A clear exception keeps the reason, owner, and next decision visible.

How connected workflows work

APPROPRIATE CONTROL

Who can act on audit & compliance?

Evidence access, retention, and review authority must fit the institution’s obligations. Software records do not themselves establish regulatory compliance.

Explore security and institutional control

KNOW WHETHER THE CHANGE IS HELPING

Findings resolved with evidence

Review overdue corrective actions and repeat findings across successive review periods.

Agree the baseline, reporting period, and owner before comparing results.Connect evidence to decisions

SEE IT IN YOUR CONTEXT

Different institutions. Specific responsibilities.

A practical introduction

Bring a representative workflow, one recurring exception, and the people who own the handoffs.

Plan your implementation

BEFORE THE CONVERSATION

Useful questions about audit & compliance.

Does using Qentak certify an institution as compliant?

No. Compliance depends on the applicable requirements, actual controls, institutional practice, and any independent assessment required.

What evidence should an implementation review include?

Use named process owners, representative records, permission checks, and agreed acceptance criteria. Record the results and outstanding actions before expanding the rollout.

PUT YOUR PROCESS IN THE PICTURE

Start with your current workflow, the decisions that take time, and the handoffs you want to improve.
