If an engagement supervisor discovers insufficient information to draw a conclusion in workpapers, which action...

Standard 2340 – Engagement Supervision requires supervisors to review work performed and provide feedback to ensure sufficiency and appropriateness. The first step when finding insufficient information is to discuss the issue with the auditor who prepared the workpapers, clarify what was done, and guide improvements. Training material adjustments may follow later, but the immediate supervisory responsibility is to resolve the issue directly with the assigned auditor.
