If you have questions about this event, please call us at 952-831-2707.

Monday, October 24, 2016
1:00pm - 4:30pm Central Time
4 CPE (4 technical)
Crowne Plaza Minneapolis West, Plymouth

All organizations, regardless of size, need transaction processing IT and manual controls to mitigate risk. But one size does not fit all, and the best practices that have evolved over time don't always work well for small- and medium-sized entities. Get the guidance you need to adapt the updated COSO internal control framework to the transaction processing systems of smaller entities, and come away with cost-effective solutions.

This event is part of the MNCPA CPE Variety Pack, Oct. 24-25.

Major subjects

  • The control activities component of the updated COSO internal control framework
  • Examples of major transaction processing systems
  • Importance of tailoring transaction processing controls best practices to the specific entity
  • Cost-effective manual and IT transaction processing controls for very small entities
  • Controls for a variety of IT environments commonly found in small- and medium-sized entities
  • Mitigating controls that can be implemented when primary controls are not available

Learning objective(s)

  • Recall a variety of internal controls that can be implemented in a cost-effective manner for small and medium-sized entities' transaction processing systems in accordance with the updated COSO integrated framework
  • Recall why a "one-size fits all best practices" set of transaction processing controls might not be appropriate for small- and mid-sized entities
  • Recognize different mitigating controls that can be implemented when primary controls are not available in small and medium-sized entities' transaction processing systems

Who should take this program?

Accountants, auditors and managers who are responsible for implementing, monitoring, evaluating, auditing or designing transaction processing system internal controls for small- and medium-sized entities
