Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this useful for external audit bank confirmations?
- Bank Statement Converter helps verify transaction completeness. For formal audit bank confirmations (positive confirmations), auditors still send standard confirmation letters directly to banks per AU-C 505.
- Can I use this for internal audit cash testing?
- Yes. Internal auditors use Bank Statement Converter to quickly digitize paper or PDF bank statements for cash disbursement testing, payroll verification, and related-party transaction reviews.
