Limitation on Scope Prior to Audit Engagement Acceptance
If management or those charged with governance impose a limitation on the scope of the auditor‟s work in the terms of a proposed audit engagement such that the auditor believes the limitation will result in the auditor disclaiming an opinion on the financial statements, the auditor shall not accept such a limited engagement as an audit engagement, unless required by law or regulation to do so.
It can be like, not accessing data on company servers, only printouts will be given to auditor. No access to employees for inquiry, only junior staffs will be available for limited time etc
