How to Roll Forward an Engagement

Rolling an engagement forward will retain information needed to provide PY numbers in current period workpapers.

What is Rolled Forward?

Engagement Settings

  • The engagement name is retained from year to year
  • The engagement start and end date are increased by one year
  • Procedures and sampling as they exist on the engagement are rolled forward to the next year's engagement as-is

Workpapers

  • In the Plan Analytics workpaper, the CY numbers in the existing engagement become the PY numbers in the newly created engagement once rolled forward.
