During engagement planning, an internal auditor uses a flowchart to evaluate the design of controls. A flowchart visually represents the processes and controls within the organization, helping the auditor identify control points, weaknesses, and potential risks. This understanding is critical for planning the audit, as it allows the auditor to design tests that effectively assess whether the controls are properly designed and implemented to mitigate risks.References:
