Abstract: An audit schedule is determined from a database storing a master data set comprising audit events, system parameters, and resources. Audit events are grouped according to information of the master data set, for example shared units (e.g., product, service, organization, risk level, audit type, etc.). Audit groups are prioritized by factors such as unit priority and audit duration. A random audit event within the group is chosen, and then a time slot is selected according to a desired distribution (e.g., left-to-right), determining resource availability for that slot. The procedure may optionally consider additional constraints (e.g., manually added, national holidays, auditor availability) outside the master data set. The procedure shuffles through audit events of the group with the highest priority, and then through audit events of lower priority groups, filling out the audit schedule according to resource availability and constraints. Audit schedule changes are recorded in a change log data object.
