dab:scripts

Standardized Analysis routines for SAP® R/3® data

dab:scripts are globally implementable, standardized and documented analysis routines for SAP® R/3® data specifically adapted to the needs of Audits in the process optimization and fraud detection areas.

dab:scripts are implemented in ACL and represent hundreds of questions taken from the everyday routine of internal and external auditors in executable form. There are standardized, well documented and highly integrated analyses for all modules of SAP® R/3®.
The analysis routines are executable on all SAP® systems worldwide.

Concept

Integrated

The seamless integration begins with the data extraction and continues through to the finished results. The dab:exporter exports the predefined data from SAP® R/3® in the correct format. The analyses can be triggered immediately from the menu bar. In case manual follow-up analyses are required, all the source data (the original SAP® R/3® tables) are maintained within the analysis software.

Modular Build

The large number of standardized and documented analysis routines for SAP® R/3® data has been split up into packages according to the verification methods of Internal and External Audit respectively. Among others, the module Procurement, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Sales & Distribution and Plant Maintenance are available. The modules are being extended and enhanced on a continueing basis so that we can vouch for the currently most up-to-date version.

Advantages

Standardized

The analysis routines for SAP® R/3® are standardized and globally implementable. The analyses have been tested on systems in Germany, USA, Brazil and China. Thanks to the high degree of standardization of the tables and fields in SAP® R/3® systems, the analysis routines can be executed on SAP® R/3® data worldwide without any need for adaptation.

Documented

There is encompassing German and English Documentation for all analysis routines, containing the business background of the question as well as valuable technical information on SAP® R/3® tables and fields and the working method of the analysis routine in question. This way the Auditor does not rely on just another "Black box", but he can recreate all the results manually.

From KPI down to single transactions

Wherever it makes sense, our analysis routines generate KPI (Key Performance Indicators). This can be anything from a simple ratio (e.g. bonus payments in relation to the turnover with a client) to statistical methods like variation coefficient or the "Herfindahlindex". This way, the As-is state regarding the question is being precisely visualized by a factor. Contrary to Management-Information-systems, access to individual relevant transactions remains possible. Detail tables with the subset of individual transactions that is relevant to the results are made available. These allow for an individual processing of results wherever needed.

Real life szenarios

Process Optimization, ICS, Fraud Detection

Thanks to working with the entirety of data, all ways are open to the Auditor when implementing our analysis routines. Business Optimization potentials, e.g. in the area of the management of frame contracts as well as possibilities in the area of Fraud Detection are being shown. Moreover, the analysis routines also deliver some information regarding  ICS-relevant questions
