Hi agasr,
I had a little look into the haccp frequency of record review on the net.
TBH, the issue of "official" frequency where related to any verification, review-type activity is, afai could see, typically (and perhaps predictably) evaded with respect to actual numbers. The potential consequences of an actual failure are generally also evaded.
The specific usfda 1 week noted in post #4 seems to be a rare “official” example. It's justification is detailed in the Seafood final rule 1995 -
FDA is convinced that a weekly review of HACCP monitoring and corrective action records would provide the industry with the necessary flexibility to handle highly perishable commodities without interruption, while still facilitating speedy feedback of information. FDA is reluctant to allow the level of flexibility provided by such language as ‘‘reasonable time,’’ out of concern for the confusion that it would generate. FDA’s experience with low-acid canned foods and acidified foods has demonstrated that review of these kinds of records is a critical verification tool. FDA is, therefore, adopting the proposed provision as § 123.8(a)(3) with one revision. As set out in the final rule, it requires that the HACCP-trained individual review the monitoring records of CCP’s and the records that document the taking of corrective actions within 1 week of the making of the records, rather than before shipment, as a part of a processor’s erification activities (§ 123.8(a)(3) (i) and (ii)).
FDA agrees, on the other hand, that this principle need not apply to the review of records of such verification activities as process control instrument calibration and product testing. The frequency of these activities will be variable and dependent upon the HACCP plan development process. Consequently, setting a specific review frequency for these records is not warranted. .......etc.

Milk USA seemed to me to be relatively honest, albeit non-specific –
This review shall occur at a frequency that is appropriate to the importance of the record
These reviews shall occur within a reasonable time after the records are made.

This impressive (official-looking) model audit training program is highly detailed/readable but afai could see remains non-specific (as are also the quoted CFR regs) although the neat haccp example plan included has daily review for some records, weekly for others. Perhaps the USDA ideal ?

In contrast, this model “meat haccp” example, presumably from the "meat haccp" website, for a (lower risk) system uses weekly (I didn't investigate their higher risk examples probably also on the website).

There is also a related thread on this forum although for slightly more general verification scope than current one –

Assuming corrective actions are not a concern (!), I think the OP’s original suggestion of 1 – 7 days has literature support provided that (a) no regulatory limit exists, (b) hazard analysis / historical monitored results/data is not incompatible.
Regardless, I agree with Trubertq (despite my own 2-day tolerance) that, at least for critical data like cooking outputs, a daily review makes sense. It all comes back to RA again. And potential costs. And maybe job security.
