CORAA
Stock audit · SA 501

The stock audit report still needs someone on-site.

CORAA doesn't replace the physical visit — no auditor has ever verified a warehouse from a spreadsheet. What it does is the ledger-side half of the job: closing stock tied to the Stock-in-Hand ledger, a gross-profit trend that explains itself, quantity-coverage against what was actually counted, and obsolescence, cut-off and third-party-stock flags — ready before the visit, not reconstructed after it.

What it prepares

The ledger-side half of the file — before or after the visit.

SA 501
Ledger-tied closing stock
Closing stock read straight from the Stock-in-Hand ledger, CY/PY movement composed as a percentage automatically, so it ties to the balance sheet by construction, not a separately maintained stock sheet.
SA 520
Gross-profit trend, with a conclusion
The gross-profit percentage is trended CY against PY under SA 520 analytical-review framing, with a written read on what moved and whether it holds up, not just the number.
Coverage
Quantity-coverage, honestly stated
A coverage card shows how much of the counted inventory the gathered audit evidence actually covers, so the physical-verification gap is visible, not assumed away.
Risk flags
Obsolescence, cut-off and honest nils
Obsolescence, expiry, cut-off and third-party-stock prompts surface where the ledger and vouchers support them, and a genuinely nil inventory is stated as a Type B nil, never an empty grid that looks like missing work.
Stock audit, answered

The questions auditors actually ask.

No. Physical verification — visiting the premises, counting stock, assessing condition and quality — is the auditor's or the appointed stock auditor's job, and nothing in CORAA substitutes for it. CORAA works from the ledger and the evidence you upload: it prepares the closing-stock figures, the analytical review, and the coverage and risk flags that go into the file, not the visit itself.
Closing stock read from the Stock-in-Hand ledger with CY/PY movement as a percentage, a gross-profit trend with a written SA 520 conclusion, per-item vendor price exceptions flagged for AS 2 review, and a quantity-coverage figure showing how much of the physical count the gathered evidence actually covers.
No — that calculation belongs to the bank and the appointed stock auditor. What CORAA gives you is the ledger-side inventory figures and the coverage gap those calculations are built on, quantified rather than assumed.
Obsolescence, expiry and cut-off risk are flagged where the ledger and evidence support them, and a separate prompt surfaces when inventory may be held on someone else's premises, or someone else's stock may be sitting on the auditee's — both real gaps a stock audit is supposed to catch, flagged rather than assumed away.
The working paper states a Type B nil plainly. A blank template page and a genuine nil look identical unless someone writes it down — CORAA writes it down.
