The Audit Query is where the query(s) are created for the audit module. A query is a set of conditions based on which you would want to audit an expense report, for example if it exceed a certain dollar amount, or missing receipts, if a specific expense type is used, audit specific employees or just do a random audit from a pool of expense reports. You can set up many query's queries to cover all scenarios for auditory purposes. There are many options to choose from to customize and specify what you want your query to search for your auditors to find. In the Audit Query you can add, edit, delete and/or assign query'squeries.
