Perform fieldwork

Content in this topic requires OnPoint PCR.

In the Fieldwork phase of the engagement, you need to present your analysis of the trial balance and any other applicable data sources.

In this phase, you need to complete the following checklist documents:

  • 2-400 Review - Overall analysis - Based on selections in this checklist, additional checklists in the Assets, Liabilities and Equity and Revenue and Expenses folders will need to be completed.

  • 3-100 Review Inquiries- To document any inquiries you have based on the work performed.

Note: Ensure all the checklists in this phase are signed off by the designated preparer and reviewer.

You can also use the 3-100Q Review inquiries - Required and general query document to request additional information and files from the client. To learn more about the query documents functionality, see Staff-contact collaboration (Queries).

Leadsheets

In case of a Preparation or Compilation engagement, Leadsheets can be enabled in the Engagement set up document. Leadsheets are located in the Fieldwork phase grouped by the corresponding financial area. For example, you can find the A.115 Cash and Cash Equivalents sheet in the Cash and Cash Equivalents section.

The default view in each leadsheet shows widgets with data for accounts, overview, and ratios. You can hide or display specific widgets by selecting the toggles () at the top of the page.
