Building an Audit is only half the job. Someone still has to walk the floor and complete it, and if that step is clunky, follow-through slips. Opus keeps running an Audit simple: your team opens it in the Opus Training app or the dashboard, answers each step, and submits for an automatic score, with any flagged issues routed straight into a follow-up Task.
Here's how to run an Audit from start to finish, complete it with your team, and hand off anything that needs fixing.
â Before you start: Audits are completed in the Opus Training app, and Admins and Managers can also complete them in the dashboard. You need Library Access to the Audit to run it. Admins grant it on the Audit's Overview tab in the dashboard, under Available in library. Learn more in Library Access Overview.

How to Run an Audit
In the Opus Training app, once you have Library Access, find a scheduled Audit in the Tasks section of your home screen while its window is open, or search your Library for it.
Complete an Audit Step by Step
Open the Audit and select a Location.
Go through each Section and fill in your answers. Add notes, photos, or videos on any step that asks for them.
If an answer triggers a follow-up, a New follow-up task card appears under that step. Choose an Assignee before you submit.
Submit the Audit. Opus calculates your score automatically. Tap View submission to see the Outcome and Score.
Run an Audit in the Dashboard
Admins and Managers can run an Audit on a computer too, with the same steps, scoring, and follow-up Tasks as the app.
Go to Operations > Audits and open the Audit.
Click Start audit.
Choose the Location.
Answer each step. Add a note, photo, or video where a step asks for one. Your answers save automatically.
If an answer triggers a follow-up, a Follow-up task card appears under that step. Click Choose assignee and pick who it's for.
Click Submit audit. Opus scores it the same way as in the app. Click View submission to see the result.
Started on your phone? The dashboard opens the same draft, so you can finish on your computer.
Complete an Audit as a Team
Audits can be completed collaboratively, like Checklists. More than one team member at a Location can contribute to the same Audit submission, which is useful for larger walkthroughs that span several areas or shifts.
Collaborative completion is on by default. To turn it off, open the Audit in the dashboard, and on its Overview tab, set Collaborative to No in the Settings card.
Assign a Follow-Up Task for Flagged Steps
When an answer triggers a follow-up during an Audit, a New follow-up task card appears under that step. Each flagged step gets its own Task. Choose the team member at that Location it's for, a due date, the proof of completion you want back, and whether it needs your approval to be marked complete.
Opus creates the Tasks when you submit the Audit. The assignee does the work and submits it, then you approve it or request changes.
đĄ Tracked to sign-off: Every Task is tracked from assignment to sign-off, so nothing falls through the cracks. See the full workflow in Audit Tasks.
