Auditing Controls in ERP Systems

ERP Systems

Week 1 Wrap-up: Introduction

August 31, 2016 by Edward N Beaver

Thanks all for persisting through some of the first on-line class issues we had.  I trust you were able to genuinely participate and learned about what we’re doing in the class as well as starting to learn the core concepts.

A couple of key messages I hope you took from the first class:

  • What Business Functions and Business Processes are and what the differences are.  This is a core concept and you can count it will be on the Exam.
  • ERP Systems are highly functional but complex in many dimensions
  • Real world control failures do happen – we’ll learn by looking at some real world examples
  • Internal control framework drivers and and components.

 

Note: there are no Questions for Week 1 – today we start focusing on Week 2 material, questions, etc.
