ART: Audit Reconciliation Tool - Court of Auditors
Opinion of 9 February 2009 on a notification for prior checking regarding "ART: Audit Reconciliation Tool" (Case 2008-239)
The purpose of the processing operation is to facilitate individual auditors and their Heads of Unit to reconcile their time recorded in ASSYST (the Audit Management System) with EFFICIENT (the Flexitime system) through the so called ART tool.
A reconciliation of the records of ASSYST and EFFICIENT by staff allows them ensuring that their ASSYST records are complete and accurate for the current and the previous month.
The main recommendations of the EDPS related to, among others, the need to adopt a specific legal basis for the ART processing operation, the adoption of a privacy statement and the modification of the privacy statements of the two underlying databases.
