Help me connect the 5 "Audit" dots

Auditing

Audit Strategy Audit Planning Audit Documentation Audit Evidence Audit Programme From what I understood by reading the book, first the auditor prepares an overall audit strategy, which in turn guides the development of a detailed audit plan, which includes a description of planned procedures (SA 315, SA 330, other procedures). Although these are different terms, they are very interrelated and not necessarily discrete or sequential processes. Audit plan is included in Audit Programme, which is designed to gather Audit Evidence. Audit Documentation is a record of all of the above activity for future reference and which safeguards him. Any basic I am missing?

We cannot see these terms in silos. Each of the terms are related and dependent on one another. In theory you may arrange them in sequence but in practical life it is not sequential.

The audit programme is to be formulated after understanding the internal controls. (Pg 4.27)
