ACTUAL WORKBOOK PREVIEWCompleted fictional example
Completed findings register showing three fictional records, including AR-026-014 returned for further review and 15 days overdue.
Scroll horizontally on smaller screens. The download includes a blank Register, a completed Example and an Instructions sheet.

Useful calculations

Calendar days overdue, date warnings and checks for missing closure fields. A populated record still needs a substantive review.

Evidence beyond the spreadsheet

Use the Word pack to explain the cause, retain evidence references, document testing and record the decision.

A PRACTICAL START

Use it in your own review cycle.

  1. Set the scope.

    Choose a reporting date. Give each finding a stable ID, an owner and its original deadline.

  2. Connect the evidence.

    Complete the closure pack and reference controlled files in your institution’s repository.

  3. Review the result.

    Record independent testing, unresolved exceptions and the authorised decision before closing.
