Current Issue:
The AirMaestro system currently lacks proper audit trail functionality for finding extensions during independent audits. When auditors apply extensions to finding due dates, the system only updates the due date field without maintaining any historical record or justification.
Specific Problems Identified:
No Extension History: The system does not log when an extension was granted
Missing Audit Trail: No record of who authorized the extension
Lack of Justification: No field to capture the reason for the extension
Insufficient Reporting: Global reports do not provide finding-level extension details
Compliance Risk: Inability to demonstrate proper oversight during regulatory reviews
Proposed Solution:
Implement an extension tracking module that captures:
Extension grant date and time
Authorizing auditor details
Original due date vs. extended due date
Justification/reason for extension
Extension approval workflow (if applicable)
Expected Outcome:
Complete audit trail for all finding modifications
Enhanced compliance reporting capabilities
Individual finding-level extension history visible within each audit record
Improved transparency for regulatory and internal reviews
his enhancement would significantly improve our audit management capabilities and regulatory compliance posture.
