Stage / Report Report Description

Final Consolidated Report
This report provides a list of all reports available in the Audit.
gen_source_audit_report
source_Totals_Report

gen_cmpcvr_report
Discrepancy Report
This report provides details of disagreements between the voting system and the auditing result, as well as variants, such as write-ins, overvotes, and ballots which are 'gray-flagged' by AuditEngine for potential further review.

Stage reports produced by AuditEngine

The reports listed here are in the same order as the pipeline stages that were executed to produce these audit results. Many of these reports exist to allow for auditing analysts to check the progress of the audit.
All other supporting files and intermediate files can be found in the "Pipeline Report". Most users may find what they need under "Main Reports", above.

Stage / Report Report Description
precheck
precheck Report
gen_biabif
Ballot Image Archive Metadata Report
This report details information about the ballot image archives provided by the election district in terms of the metadata regarding each image file and its size, as well as the number of images in each file, repeated image files, etc.
parse_eif
Election Information File (EIF) Parse Report
The Election Information File (EIF) contains the full description of the election in terms of what contests are included and what options are listed for each contest. The EIF file is usually generated from the CVR, if it is available (Public Oversight Workflow) or from other sources, such as the Logic and Accuracy Test results, in Cooperative Workflow. The EIF file can also be edited by hand, and commonly the number of write-ins need to be modified.
gen_fullbif
gen_fullbif Delegation Report
This is an internal report that provides the total number of delegations, their run time, and estimated cost for this stage.
imagematch
Image_Match_Report
This report is the result of a complete examination of all ballot images to create a cryptographic hash of each image file, to make it easy to local duplicated image files. There will be a hash value for each side of each sheet, but sometimes no "back" image is provided, so these may not be the same. When repeated images are detected, the first images detected are kept and all repeats of those are "skipped". If repeated images are detected, then it could have been caused by uploading results from the same machine multiple times.
gen_bif_report
bif: Combined Metadata Report
This report is similar to the "nocvr_bif: Combined Metadata Report" but now the CVR information has been combined and correlated.
gen_template_tasklists
Generate Templates Tasklist Report
gentemplates
gentemplates Delegation Report
gen_templates_report
Templates Report
update_system_status_stage
System_Status_Report
gen_option_proofs_report
Option Proofs Report
This report is to allow human-eye review of each option on all styles. We find that human-perception is particularly adept at finding any deviations among many that are the same.
gen_styles_report
Style Redline Proofs Report
This report is also called the "Redline Proofs report" and it provides an image of every style with the oval outlined with a rectangle and then marked with the name of the contest and options of that contest. We have found this report is relatively hard for human perception to review, and thus we have also the Option Proofs Report, which is much easier to check that each option is correctly mapped. However, it may be the case that an oval is left out, and it would not be shown at all on the option proofs report. Therefore, we still need this report, which should be reviewed only to verify that all ovals have been redlined.
extractvote
extractvote Delegation Report
This is an internal report that provides the total number of delegations, their run time, and estimated cost for this stage.
gen_source_audit_report
source_Totals_Report
This report provides a review of each contest in detail based on the ballot images in the 'source' archives. If the CVR is available when this report is created, then the totals from the CVR will be included with the difference provided.
parse_results_report
Results Parsing Report
parse_results_stdresults
results Results Parsing Report
import_adjudications_cmpcvr

gen_cmpcvr_report
Discrepancy Report
This report provides details of disagreements between the voting system and the auditing result, as well as variants, such as write-ins, overvotes, and ballots which are 'gray-flagged' by AuditEngine for potential further review. This version of this report includes comparisons with the CVR, any manual results, and any adjudications.
gen_final_report
Final Consolidated Report
This report provides a list of all reports available in the Audit.
