The use of preventative and process controls to evaluate the continuous audit process done via an SAP ERP ECC 6.0 system is key to compliance with SOX and managing costs. This paper can be used in a variety of ways to discuss issues associated with auditing and testing of internal controls. A case study is provided to effectively teach SAP system controls in undergraduate/graduate courses in auditing and information systems.
