# IT Asset Audit Record The IT Asset Audit Record is used to conduct physical verification of IT and Fixed Assets to validate asset condition, location, and compliance. It maintains an audit history for each asset for each audit execution. Audits can be created as random or scheduled and configured as internal or external. Each audit is performed using predefined templates (checklists) that define the verification criteria for auditors. The module tracks audit progress, completion status, and audit results across selected asset categories. ## **What You See on the Screen** The IT Asset Audit Record page displays all created audit records, including their current status, progress, and assigned auditors. Users can search, filter, schedule, and manage audits, and create and apply audit templates. ![](https://content.gitbook.com/content/E4mkwSP8a1BSD9BFNFav/blobs/JDD8DOrL967McuMbaj5c/Unknown%20image) Audit Records **| Basic Details**

## **Templates** Templates define the checklist used during an IT Asset Audit. They specify what an auditor must verify for each asset, including condition, serial number, location, compliance details, and custom verification points. Templates ensure audits are performed in a structured and consistent manner and can be reused across multiple audit records. Assigning a template is mandatory to execute an audit. ### **Add Template** To create a new template: * Navigate to **IT Asset Audit Record**. * From the top panel, select **Template**. * Click **Add Template** to configure a new checklist. Templates are built by selecting relevant asset attributes and adding custom input fields that auditors will complete during the audit. Add Template **| Basic Details**
