Description: If a risk or an audit finding stated in an audit report could not be completely solved or mitigated, the audit action plan or action is considered satisfactory when the risk is "under control" = reasonably controlled. This means that no major problems are to be expected.
Key Concepts: Reasonable control is a term used in SAP Audit Management to describe the level of control that should be in place to ensure that the organization’s processes are operating as intended. It is based on the concept of “reasonable assurance”, which is a standard of assurance that is expected to be achieved by an organization in order to ensure that its processes are operating as intended. Reasonable control is a key component of an effective internal control system and is necessary for organizations to meet their compliance requirements. How to use it: In SAP Audit Management, reasonable control is used to assess the effectiveness of an organization’s internal controls. It involves evaluating the design and implementation of internal controls, as well as assessing the level of risk associated with each control. The assessment should include an evaluation of the organization’s policies and procedures, as well as its systems and processes. The results of the assessment should be used to identify areas where additional controls may be needed or where existing controls may need to be improved. Tips & Tricks: When assessing reasonable control, it is important to consider both the design and implementation of internal controls. It is also important to consider the level of risk associated with each control. Additionally, it is important to consider how well the organization’s policies and procedures are being followed, as well as how well its systems and processes are functioning.
