Week 7 Questions

October 10, 2020 by Allen Chou Leave a Comment

  1. As we’ve seen in the P2P and OTC Processes many different often non-financial business functions are involved with ERP system transactions that post to accounting records. If you are responsible for Finance / Accounting controls for your company how would you manage the risks coming from these non-Financial function jobs?
  2. As we continue to learn about business processes and ERP systems we often discuss financial or account related terms and concepts.  How much finance and accounting knowledge should  IT personnel supporting business applications know and learn?  Explain
  3. Controls are important to financial and accounting processes.  What would be different in the controls of a purely domestic US company vs. an international company?  Give 1 – 2 specific examples.
  4. How important is it for people responsible for general I/T controls (e.g. Network, workstation, Server and data base security) to know about how the ERP system works?  What is one (1) specific thing they should know?
