What you can build in the Template Builder

An overview of what a custom audit template can contain.

Written by Caim Hermoso

Who this is for: Needs Manage My Audit Templates. Audit Manager and Audit Administrator have this by default.

A template defines everything about how an audit will run: what the auditor is asked, what they must record, what evidence they must capture, and what happens before the audit can be published.

You control seven things:

Panel

What you configure

① Template Details

Name, standards, audit type, description, and whether the template is offered to the Sevron global library. The template's Locations sit in their own panel above it

② Audit Details

Which fields the auditor fills in before starting — six fixed, six optional

③ Checklist Columns

Which response and findings columns appear against each clause

④ Findings Fields

What an auditor must record when raising a finding

⑤ Linked Documents

Whether auditors can attach supporting files

⑥ Audit Summary

Whether the audit ends with a narrative summary

⑦ Review & Publish Options

Defaults for what appears in the report, and whether a technical review is required

Alongside those, in the live preview panel, you build the questionnaire itself — the sections and clauses the auditor works through.
