Accounting

AUDITING ERP DATA BASES You are an independent auditor attending an engagement interview with the client. The clients organization has recently implemented a data warehouse. Management is concerned that the audit tests that you perform will disrupt operations and suggests that instead of running tests against the live operational data base, you draw the data for your analytical reviews and substantive tests of details from the data warehouse.

. Management points out that operational data are copied weekly into the warehouse and every-thing you need is contained there. This will enable you to perform your tests without disrupting routine operations. You agree to give this some thought and get back to the client with your answer.

Required

Draft a memo to the client outlining your response to the clients proposal. Mention any concerns you might have.
