Convert an interim analysis to a full analysis

  • Updated

Summary

Conducting an interim analysis allows you to load and analyze data prior to fiscal year-end. By performing some of the necessary audit work in advance, you can convert the interim analysis into an analysis of the full term, thus substantially reducing your year-end workload.

Learn how to convert a completed interim analysis to a full analysis within MindBridge.

Note: To convert an interim analysis, the interim analysis must be successfully run.

Go to the Data page

  1. Select the logo in the MindBridge sidebar. You will go to the Organizations page.
  2. Select View in line with the desired organization, or click anywhere in the organization row. You will go to the Engagements page.
  3. Select View in line with the desired engagement, or click anywhere in the engagement row. You will go to the Data page for that particular engagement.
Tip: If you are already in an analysis, simply use the sidebar ( Sidebar open-close icon ) to go to the Data ( Analyze menu icon ) page.

Convert the analysis

Interim analyses are denoted with "Interim analysis" next to the analysis name. 

  1. Select Convert, located at the top-right corner of a given analysis. A selection window will appear.
  2. Confirm the end date of the full analysis. The end date provided during the initial analysis creation will be selected by default, but can be changed as needed.
  3. When you are satisfied, select Convert. You will go back to the Data page.

The interim analysis will be archived automatically, and the new full analysis displays "Converted" next to the analysis name.
