Purpose

Before we sample for exceptions, many clients ask us to walk purchase-to-pay, treasury transfers, or journal entry routes with the people who actually run them. The walkthrough produces a process map annotated with policy checkpoints and known workarounds.

Included

  • Two to four process sessions with owners
  • Annotated flow notes tied to policy clauses
  • List of control points suitable for later exception sampling
  • Short memo of observed practice gaps

Not included

Deep population testing (that sits in the policy exception reporting engagement) or IT general controls audits.

Next step
