It can thus leverage the capabilities of auditors to improve audit efficiency, effectiveness as well as quality. Nevertheless, Process Mining is still not an industry-wide best practices, especially due to lacking implementation guidelines for practitioners. Therefore, this study presents a framework to implement Process Mining in a structured way in internal and external auditing.
