Tier I / II / III progression

The audit progresses as ஆதாரம் arrives. Tier I starts every எங்கேஜ்மென்ட்.

Tier I, Tier II, Tier III audit progression

Auditees rarely have all ஆதாரம் ready on day one. CORAA acknowledges this by structuring the எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் as three ஆதாரம் tiers. Tier I begins every audit with just the General Ledger, Trial Balance, and Chart of Accounts. Tier II adds the Party Master and prior-year audit report. Tier III adds the Bill Register and Fixed Asset Register. Each tier unlocks more பணிக்காகிதங்கள் without forcing the audit to wait.

  • Tier I (Books-only): 14 பணிக்காகிதங்கள் unlocked from books alone
  • Tier II (ஆதாரம்-anchored): party-wise ageing, MSMED Act bifurcation, Related Party Transactions
  • Tier III (Audit Judgement): Sec 32 depreciation, PPE roll-forward, bill-wise ageing, KAM for listed entities
  • CORAA flags exactly what ஆதாரம் is missing when a higher-tier deliverable needs it
  • The கணக்காய்வாளர் never waits, work begins with what the வாடிக்கையாளர் provides today
Two paths, one ledger

The old way, and ours.

Two paths to the same audit conclusion. One leaves traces; the other doesn't.

Traditional

The old way

  • -Audit குழு waits for all ஆதாரம் before starting fieldwork
  • -Two to three weeks lost while வாடிக்கையாளர் gathers FA register, party master, prior-year report
  • -When ஆதாரம் finally arrives, audit குழு rushes through testing
  • -ஆவணப்படுத்தல் suffers because everything happens at once
Time-to-fieldwork: typically 2-3 weeks after எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் letter. Quality drops under deadline pressure.
CORAA

On the Ledger

  • Audit begins on day one with Tier I ஆதாரம்
  • Tier II unlocks party-level work when Party Master arrives
  • Tier III unlocks Bill Register and FA Register work when those arrive
  • எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் Overview shows exactly which பணிக்காகிதங்கள் are locked, unlocked, or pending
  • Sign-off blockers surface only when ஆதாரம் for that specific blocker is missing
Time-to-first-Working-Paper: typically 1-2 hours after எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் letter. Quality preserved across the audit.

Step 03

Advance to Tier III

Add Bill Register and Fixed Asset Register. Lock Materiality memo. Lock மாதிரி எடுப்பு plan. CORAA unlocks PPE roll-forward per Schedule II, Form 3CD Clause 18 Sec 32 depreciation, bill-wise ageing, KAM for listed entities per SA 701, Opinion & Report seven-step UDIN sign-off.

Inside the module

What you actually get.

Tier I, the universal baseline

Every audit starts here. Three files cover it: GL with every voucher, TB with opening and closing per ledger, CoA with group hierarchy.

  • General Ledger: every voucher line
  • Trial Balance: opening, period movement, closing
  • Chart of Accounts: parent group, sub-group, ledger hierarchy
  • Unlocks 14 பணிக்காகிதங்கள் immediately

Tier II, ஆதாரம்-anchored

Once the Party Master is uploaded with PAN, GSTIN, and MSME flags, CORAA can do party-wise work that books alone cannot deliver.

  • Trade Payables MSME bifurcation (Note 23)
  • Party-wise AR/AP ageing
  • Related Party Transactions per SA 550
  • Sec 40A(2)(b) related-party payments (Form 3CD Clause 23)
  • Form 3CD Clause 44 GST-wise expense break-up
  • SA 510 Opening Balance சரிபார்ப்பு

Tier III, audit judgement

With the Fixed Asset Register and Bill Register loaded and materiality plus மாதிரி எடுப்பு locked, the audit reaches its final form.

  • PPE roll-forward by asset class (Note 11)
  • Capital Work-in-Progress ageing (Note 12)
  • Form 3CD Clause 18 Sec 32 depreciation
  • Bill-wise AR/AP ageing
  • Form 3CD Clause 17 Sec 50C property transfers
  • KAM identification for listed entities per SA 701

எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் Overview

The Overview screen shows three columns side by side: Tier I unlocked items, Tier II ஆதாரம்-anchored items, Tier III audit-judgement items. Each item is marked complete, in progress, or locked.

  • Visual progression across three tiers
  • Locked items show which ஆதாரம் is missing
  • கணக்காய்வாளர் can request specific files from வாடிக்கையாளர் with one click
Frequently asked

Answers, up front.

இந்திய கணக்காய்வு வாடிக்கையாளர்கள் deliver ஆதாரம் in batches. Demanding everything before starting fieldwork delays the audit by two to three weeks while the வாடிக்கையாளர் gathers prior-year reports and registers. Tiered progression starts the audit immediately with what is available and unlocks more as ஆதாரம் arrives.
Fourteen பணிக்காகிதங்கள் unlock from books alone: Trial Balance, Schedule III BS, P&L, Cash Flow, CARO Rule 11(e) ratios, Ledger Classification, Ledger Scrutiny, Transactional Scrutiny, Form 3CD entity clauses, Form 3CD Clause 11 books, Clause 21 disallowable expenses, Clause 26 Sec 43B, Clause 34 books-only TDS/TCS sectional totals, Materiality memo, Per-Working-Paper மாதிரி எடுப்பு.
Tier III for any எங்கேஜ்மென்ட் requiring CARO 2020 reporting (most நிறுவனங்கள்). Tier II for tiny entities exempt from CARO. Below Tier II, the கணக்காய்வாளர் cannot complete the seven sign-off blockers required before UDIN issuance.
