1. A system for automating quality assurance auditing processes and reducing data error rates, the system comprising:
a computer having at least one processor, at least one memory, and a user interface;
a regulations database having regulations and standards, each regulation comprising audit row items, and each standard comprising audit row items;
a storage database having a plurality of audits, audits generated based on user provided responses, each audit comprising regulation row items, standard row items, or both, that correspond to a subset of the regulations, the standards, or both; and
a program product, stored in the at least one memory, comprising machine-readable program code for causing, when executed, the computer to perform a system method comprising the following process steps:
providing a user a plurality of regulations or standards from the regulations database to choose as a focus for an audit and prompting the user to select at least one regulation or standard as a focus for the audit;
receiving from the user at least one selected regulation or standard as a focus for the audit;
sending the at least one selected regulation or standard to the regulations database;
filtering by the regulations database of the at least one selected regulation or standard, from all available regulations and standards in the database, so that the at least one selected regulation or standard becomes at least one filtered regulation or standard;
converting the at least one filtered regulation or standard into an audit comprising a plurality of audit rows;
presenting the user a first audit question corresponding to a first audit row;
receiving the response to the audit question, and creating at least one standard row item;
updating the first audit row after receiving the response from the user to an audit question by automatically overwriting the first audit row in the storage database with the at least one standard row item; and
selecting a next audit question corresponding to a next audit row from the storage database for presentation to the user;
repeating in an iterative fashion or recursive manner until no audit questions remain, wherein the audit questions are presented sequentially to the user one row at a time; and
sending one or more of the at least one filtered regulation or standard, the plurality of audit rows, or a combination thereof, to the storage database as a completed audit.
