One reason this interrelationship exists is because, when planning audits, the FA and IT auditor evaluate manual as well as automated processing.
However, there is a distinguishing feature that is obvious. As most of the professional audit community is aware, an FA fundamentally focuses on financial transactions, whereas, the IT auditor places emphasis on system processing. In addition, the FA's assessment is mandated by assertions presented in financial statements. Though concerned about the same claims, the IT auditor has other reasons for performing an IT audit. Therefore, the rhetorical question is: What other reasons are there for conducting an audit? The answer: an IT auditor can direct attention towards management's assertions concerning a particular subject matter or related subject matter. Additionally, an IT auditor may focus attention to the direct subject matter. These declarations or direct subject matters do not necessarily involve financial statements.
