A Reverse Audit is a planning and forecasting tool. It essentially employs the concept of an Academic Audit, but is applied to groups of students.

Your students meet academic requirements by completing coursework each semester.  Campus Cafe tracks these requirements and how they are met.   By running a Reverse Audit, you can obtain a list of all requirements that have not been met for a specified group of students.

In addition to forecasting, this tool is also very useful for advising scenarios.  For example, some courses  may only be offered during the fall semester.  The Reverse Audit would allow you to identify seniors who need such a class to graduate, but create a pro-active advising scheme where the student is registered before that class becomes full.
