you must first of all go through "GUIDELINES ON INTERNAL AUDIT" issued by ICAI from time to time.
you should create a system of proper recording of each and every transaction at different levels of the organisation, such as, maintaining registers, retaining copies of bills, approval register, etc and set-up a periodic check of all these records. by this, you can ensure rare chances for loopholes.
for ex:- for purchases, you can insert/ verify the system as PO-Gate Entry-Store ledger-purchase register-payment register-party individual account. then extend it to payment of freight, bank charges, deductions made from party for non-compliance of any terms or conditions.
in order to ensure least possibility of defaults, the auditor must keep a deep and thorough check on even a minute event that happens across the procedure.
