The audit team's documentation should include information regarding all steps of the sampling process and the implications of the conclusions reached on internal control reliance and substantive procedures. This includes documenting the sample size, sample selection method, the number of deviations, sample deviation rate, and allowance for sampling risk. Additionally, the documentation should include the audit team's rationale for their conclusions and any conclusions reached regarding internal control reliance and substantive procedures. The control environment, including an assessment of management's integrity, should also be documented, but this is not specific to attributes sampling.
