Engagement Report
 
When the type of engagement is set in the Home Menu, the appropriate default wording will be presented. The options on the engagement report will vary depending on the type of engagement. Depending on the type of engagement, there may be different options to choose from on each report. In this example the engagement type is set to Audit. Most information and settings completed here will also reflect on the Engagement Letter (EL).
 
Jazzit Administrators can setup the default selections in the RP- Engagement Report in the Resource Centre. This creates consistency in client files when the Engagement Report is Updated/Reloaded from the Resource Centre.
