For a Self-Qualification Audit, having at least 3 months of documents is sufficient because it allows the auditor to evaluate the company's current practices and compliance effectively. This timeframe provides enough data to assess key operational processes, internal controls, and any recent changes that may have occurred.

The 3-month requirement ensures that the information is not too outdated, allowing for a relevant snapshot of the company’s practices. It acknowledges that shorter timeframes can still contain ample evidence of compliance with standards or requirements, making it practical for the company to prepare for the audit without the need for extensive documentation from prior years.

Longer document requirements, such as 6 months or 1 year, may be necessary for different types of audits or for organizations looking to establish more comprehensive historical data. However, for the specific context of a Self-Qualification Audit, 3 months is typically deemed sufficient to meet the audit's objectives.
