Tasks For Audits

Create, assign, and complete audit-related tasks in Sprinto using structured workflows for findings, controls, and audit events.

Use audit tasks in Sprinto to track follow-ups, assign corrective actions, and manage auditor findings across your audit events. You can create tasks for specific audit events, audit findings, or individual controls. Tasks can be monitored from the Tasks tab within the audit or through the Dashboard section.
