6. How does Audit Partner Work? The home office enters key audit data for tracking purposes. Supervisor’s workload balance audits and releases them to the field. Upon completion, finished audits are transmitted (or upload) to an internal system or electronic mailbox. Audit Partner retrieves this data and archives it within the system, closing out time service and providing production reports. When an audit reviewer, manager or supervisor is ready to review the completed audit, they select it from a list of returned audits and can display or print it. Audit Partner users can review all areas of the audit: the worksheet, the summary, contractor’s information, and any information returned by the auditor.

Managing Audits Using the AuditPartnerLists: • Audit Partner provides a large number of management tools that help you manage your audit workload. • Much of Audit Partners' information is provided as a list. These lists appear in a format that is similar to those used for bank statements or charge statements. Each row represents a summary of data for a particular audit, including auditor assigned, insured name, audit status etc.

This flexibility in how users manage their data iscommon design concept shared by all AMS products.
