Which step follows the scheduling of a Final Audit?

The step that follows the scheduling of a Final Audit is the commencement of the audit job by the audit task batch process. This process is essential as it triggers the necessary actions for conducting the audit. When a Final Audit is scheduled, it indicates that all preceding activities have been completed, and now the system is ready to initiate the audit process formally.

This step involves the system preparing and organizing the various aspects required to carry out the audit, including pulling relevant information and setting up the audit environment. This initiation is critical because it ensures that all activities related to the audit are performed systematically and aligned with the workflows established in the Guidewire PolicyCenter.

While entering audit basis, calculating the premium, and notifying the billing system are all important components of the auditing process, they occur after the initial scheduling and initiation of the audit job. Therefore, starting the audit job is indeed the next logical step following the scheduling of a Final Audit.
