Inspect uniform in entrance to mine (5)

I believe the answer is:

audit

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'inspect' is the definition.
(I know this)

'uniform in entrance to mine' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'uniform' could be 'u' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'u' is located in the answer.
'entrance' could be 'adit' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'adit' is found within the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for audit that I've seen before include "Examine accounts" , "review of books" , "Financial inspection" , "Inspection of the account books" , "Conduct annual check of firm's accounts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail.
