Solution

As DataSnipper makes it possible to prepare workpapers more efficiently, Grant Thornton auditors can now collaborate sooner to identify variations and reconcile items between clients’ books and records. This empowers auditors to spend more time collaborating on insights. DataSnipper also helps reviewers in a hybrid work environment by creating a robust audit trail. This means reviewers no longer need to search for supporting evidence within related support files or schedule extensive collaboration sessions with the preparer.
