Risk Association Control Activities:

1. Risk: Job schedules can be easily ignored or circumvented, resulting in processing errors or processing failures.
a. SOX.2.0.3: Controls provide reasonable assurance that the scheduling of jobs, processes and tasks are properly authorized, sequenced and managed.


2. Risk: Batch processes may be incomplete, inaccurate, or overlooked.
a. SOX.2.2.1: The procedures for batch processes that must be run at specific times (e.g., daily, weekly, month end, year end) should be documented, scheduled, and maintained on an ongoing basis.


3. Risk: Unauthorized individuals have access to batch processing.
a. SOX.2.2.2: Access to batch processing applications is restricted to the appropriate individuals.


4. Risk: Financial reporting is misstated because batch processes that fail to run correctly are not corrected in a timely manner.
a. SOX.2.2.3: Batch processing is monitored and failures are reviewed.


5. Risk: Financial reporting is misstated because output is incomplete and has not been verified for accuracy.
a. SOX.2.2.4: Users review the process output for completeness and accuracy.


6. Risk: Financial reporting is misstated because a manual process is used to process mission critical data.
a. SOX.2.2.5: To ensure the completeness of the processing an automated scheduling is being used.
