# Audit task management

Audit tasks are completed throughout an engagement and provide documented evidence that the organization is complying with external regulations and internal policies.

When audit tasks are created or reassigned, a notification is sent to the assigned user. A notification is also sent when the task reaches 75% of its planned duration.
