Solution
DataSnipper has also improved workpaper review. Reviewers can quickly identify the support used, which helps streamline issue resolution and enhance review quality. In employee benefit plan audits, DataSnipper simplifies the validation of eligible compensation data and enables timely edits. It also serves as a useful client-facing tool—teams can visually demonstrate the source of support, contributing to transparency and trust.
Document matching templates have supported faster testing for unrecorded liabilities and revenue, while form extraction templates have helped reduce time spent on specialized consulting engagements from 4–6 hours per week to approximately one hour. These efficiencies have allowed teams to allocate more time to analysis, coaching, and client service.
