Create Audits

In EmpowerID, an audit is a logically named user-defined object for identifying or grouping recertification tasks and running the Recertification policies that generate them. After you create an audit, you can add one or more Recertification policies to it. Then when the audit runs, it creates a recertification task for each item in the policy.
