The Monetary sample parameters are the following:
- Field - select the field from the drop-down menu, which will be
used for the sample generation
- Precision - the level of precision is the maximum level of
errors in the population that the auditor can accept. As a rule, the
threshold of materiality performance is used for precision. You can
set a different value from the selected materiality,
by unmarking the Use implementation materiality option.
- Confidence - the level of confidence determines the level of
residual risk as well as the R-factor
- Interval - automatically calculated (Interval =
Precision/R-factor)
- Start value - you can either enter it manually or click the
Random start value button
When you are ready, click OK.
