The record
Internal audits and nonconformities
Plan the audits against a standard you have switched on. A finding is recorded on the audit. It becomes an NCR only when you raise one.

The audit and the NCR
The record
Internal audit
Where it is used
On this organisation
What it does
- An audit is against a standard you have activated.
- A finding is not itself a nonconformity.
- Raise a numbered NCR, with a corrective action, when the finding needs one.
On the record
- Activate a standard before you plan an audit.
- An NCR keeps its number. Closing it does not delete the record.
- Open nonconformities show on Home. They do not change the readiness percentage.
The record
Internal audit
The person audits. The app holds the audit and, when you raise one, the numbered nonconformity.
Also in The record
All- Document controlPolicies, procedures, and records on the register. A draft stays a draft until it is approved. The review date is on the record.
- Clause complianceEvery clause for the standards you have switched on. Status is not started, a gap, in progress, or evidenced.
- Training and acknowledgementWho was told, who trained them, and the date they acknowledged it. This is not a certificate, and it does not mark a clause as evidenced.
- Management review and objectivesLeadership records what they considered and what they decided. Writing the review does not close a gap or a nonconformity.
