Fraud & Corruption
Fraud Case Register
Register of fraud cases by scheme type and investigation status.
Knowing your fraud exposure by scheme
Fraud against the state takes recurring forms, procurement fraud, payroll fraud, asset theft and benefit fraud, and a register organised by scheme type lets investigators and the audit committee see which schemes are most prevalent and where investigations have stalled. This screen tracks fraud cases by scheme and investigation status. AuditPro Core maintains the register in line with the fraud-prevention expectations of King IV and the PRECCA framework.

Scheme type drives prevention
Classifying fraud by scheme, from false invoicing to ghost employees, directs preventive controls at the specific method used. A register without scheme typing cannot inform prevention.
Investigation status discipline
Cases must move from reported through investigation to resolution, and status tracking exposes matters that have stalled. Stalled fraud cases are both a recovery and a reputational risk.
Link to PRECCA reporting
The Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act obliges reporting of certain corrupt transactions above a threshold to the authorities. The register supports identifying which cases trigger that duty.
Pattern detection across cases
A register reveals patterns, the same supplier, the same official, the same modus operandi, that single cases hide. Those patterns are often the strongest investigative leads.
How AuditPro Core Bridges the Gap
- Scheme classification: every case is typed by fraud scheme for prevention and analysis.
- Status workflow: cases progress through defined stages with escalation on delay.
- Traceability: each case links to evidence, suspects and any reporting obligation.
- Audit-ready export: the register exports for the audit committee, SIU and law-enforcement referral.
Key Takeaways
- Scheme typing directs preventive controls.
- Status tracking exposes stalled cases.
- PRECCA may compel reporting of certain matters.
- Registers reveal cross-case patterns.
