Home/Solutions/Auditors

Audit the ledger, not a folder of exports.

A scoped auditor portal gives the engagement team read access to the fund's general ledger, support and valuation files, with PBC lists built from the books themselves — every item traces to a posted entry.

How the engagement runs

Scope to tie-out, on the ledger.

Every request traces to a posted entry, so the team tests the books rather than a pasted schedule.

  1. 01

    Scope

    The fund invites the team and scopes entities and periods; access is read-only and logged.

    Compliance →
  2. 02

    PBC from the GL

    Request items generated from ledger balances by audit area, with status per item.

    Compliance →
  3. 03

    Trace

    Any balance drills to its journal entries, with support and hash-chain verification.

    Fund Management & ERP →
  4. 04

    Test fair value

    Marks with approach, inputs, level and committee approval already attached.

    Valuations →
  5. 05

    Tie out

In the auditor portal

Read-only, scoped to the entities and periods in the engagement, and drawn from the fund's posted ledger.

PBC list by area

Investments, capital activity, cash, fees — generated from balances.

Reconciliations

The twelve automated checks and their results.

Access log

Who viewed what, when.

By seat

Partner, staff and specialist.

Engagement partner

A scope that matches the engagement letter and a log to evidence it.

Senior / staff

Balances that drill to entries and support without a request cycle.

Valuation specialist

The mark, its inputs and the committee approval in one record.

Where the evidence lives today

A PBC folder, rebuilt every year.

  1. 01A PBC list built by the fund from last year's, then reconciled to this year's export
  2. 02Ledger detail as spreadsheets, support as PDFs, in a shared folder
  3. 03Valuation memos requested separately from the marks they support
  4. 04Access granted by email attachment, with no record of who saw what
On Privatis

On Privatis the PBC list is generated from the ledger, each item drills to its journal entry and support, and every view is logged.

What changes for the engagement

Testing starts from the books.

01

PBC from the source

Request lists are generated from the general ledger, so every item traces to a posted entry rather than a pasted schedule — with provided / tested status per item.

02

Scoped, logged access

Engagement teams see only the entities and periods in scope, read-only, and engagement activity is kept in an audit log.

03

Valuation support attached

Marks carry their approach, inputs and ASC 820 level, so fair-value testing starts with the documentation already in place.

Questions

How do auditors get access?
The fund invites the engagement team. Access is limited to the entities and periods the fund scopes, and can be revoked at any time.
Can we export workpapers?
Yes. Support and ledger detail export for your own workpaper system.
