You are currently working in a mid-tier accounting firm. In an engagement meeting with a client, the management of your client is concerned that the audit tests that you perform will disrupt operations. Your client has recently implemented a data warehouse and the management suggests that you draw the data for analytical reviews and substantive testing from the data warehouse instead of the operational database. The management points out that operational data are copied weekly into the data warehouse and all data you need are contained there.

Explanation:
Although an auditor should be allowed to work as per his terms and there should be no pressure on him, but in given case, if he can work independently on getting data from data warehouse, then it is infact more convenient for him, also it shows the trust the company has on the auditor as it is given access to its data warehouse. Hence there should be no issues from the auditor end to accept to these terms
