Assess whether a referral to counsel is warranted from quarter-end revenue

Situation

A referral to counsel is warranted sits with internal audit investigations manager because a tax-authority information document request hit a multi-entity PE roll-up after a bolt-on. Evidence is quarter-end revenue reversal cluster; write the Forensic Accounting Revenue Integrity option that extract can carry.

Decision

Internal audit investigations manager in a multi-entity PE roll-up after a bolt-on must choose Remove access or reverse the item / Temporary compensating control / Approve a documented exception / Hold using quarter-end revenue reversal cluster after a tax-authority information document request.

Hypotheses to test

• Authorize Remove access or reverse the item now; quarter-end revenue reversal cluster already has the discriminator after a tax-authority information document request.
• Keep Temporary compensating control in force until quarter-end revenue reversal cluster is completed after a tax-authority information document request for internal audit investigations manager.
• Treat quarter-end revenue reversal cluster as Approve a documented exception because both readings appear after a tax-authority information document request.
• Refuse a Forensic Accounting close: internal audit investigations manager does not have the page a referral to counsel is warranted turns on in quarter-end revenue reversal cluster.

Analysis required

• Trace approval, SoD, and related-party links that quarter-end revenue reversal cluster actually shows.
• Test cutoff, reversals, and system-of-record ties for materiality on a referral to counsel is warranted.
• Quantify the entry if internal audit investigations manager has to reverse it.
• For this Forensic Accounting Revenue Integrity file, read quarter-end revenue reversal cluster against a tax-authority information document request and write the one fact that would move a referral to counsel is warranted for internal audit investigations manager.

Recommendation

Choose Remove access or reverse the item / Temporary compensating control / Approve a documented exception / Hold on this Forensic Accounting / Revenue Integrity packet (quarter-end revenue reversal cluster after a tax-authority information document request).
