Can anybody explain (short n simple) about SOX & SoDs with 3
examples for each functional module? n ur experience on SoDs.

Answer Posted / sakthi

SOD stands for Segregation of duties.

It helps us to identify frauds and Misstatements.

For example in virsa tool we have critical SOD conflict S017
for SD module where it identifies and checks for user who
could Perform credit approval function and modify cash
received for fraudulent purposes.

SOD conflict F017 for FICO module where it checks for users
who could Maintain a non bona-fide bank account and divert
incoming payments to it.

SOD conflict P001 for PP module where it checks for users
who could Maintain a fictitious vendor and enter a Vendor
invoice for automatic payment

As far my experience concerned we need to avoid critical SOD
conflicts as much as possible and these SOD conflicts are
the ones which the auditor checks and they ask for the
mitigation control that we have outside like trace.
