What it is

The audit calendar draws every internal and external audit as a bar on a timeline, with external audit milestones marked along it. It is a view over the audit records, not a separate schedule: an audit appears here as soon as it has dates, and moving it means editing the audit.

Where to find it

AuditAudit Calendar

The stat cards on the Internal audit and External audit lists also link here with Open Calendar, pre-filtered to that type.

Year view. Internal and external audits use different colour scales.

Key actions

Change the range

Pick Month, Quarter, or Year in the view select. Year is the default and is the one to use for planning a certification cycle.

Filter by type or framework

All Frameworks narrows to audits against one framework. All Types switches between Internal and External. Arriving from a stat card sets the type filter for you.

Open an audit

Click a bar to go to that audit's page. Hovering shows the title and duration ("… - N days").

What appears

The legend maps colours to status: Planned, In Progress, Under Review, and Completed for internal audits; Planned, Package Preparation, In Progress, and Completed for external audits.

Tips and gotchas

Put the surveillance audit on the calendar as soon as the certificate is issued, even with rough dates. The year view then shows the window in which internal audits and management reviews must land.

Bars follow the audit records. To move one, change the date of audit on the internal audit or the start and end dates on the external audit; the calendar has no drag-to-reschedule.

What Noru does not do

The calendar does not create audits, set milestones, or send date reminders. It does not sync with your calendar application.
