Workiva (Financial Close Reporting) Connector

Use Workiva (Financial Close Reporting) As a Review-Ready Evidence Source

Pull evidence from Workiva (Financial Close Reporting), preserve source and collection history, and map the output directly to the controls reviewers ask about. Aurora automates recurring collection where the connector supports it and keeps export-based handoffs clean where it does not.
