SAP process control

SAP PROCESS CONTROL:

• it deals with regulatory compliance by regulation, bussiness process and organizational hierarchies.
• in NWBC T-code, the master data tab  of GRC will be there, but the GRC master data is different for traditional data.

SAP Process Control enables organizations to do the following:

• Document their control environments
• Test and assess controls 
• Track issues for remediation 
• Certify and report on the state and quality of process controls
• Manage policies
• Perform continuous controls monitoring using a combination of data forms, automated workflows, certification, and interactive reports

Note:

 It also includes powerful and flexible continuous controls monitoring (CCM) capabilities. CCM can be used to measure the effectiveness of controls, to monitor compliance, and to ensure that configuration and master data settings are valid.

Policy management features cover the life cycle of policies: drafting, approval, implementation, revisions, and so on.

SAP Process Control can reconstruct past configuration and master data settings over a test time period (e.g., last quarter, last year, etc.). This guarantees that all sensitive settings can be reviewed and tested for correctness, which is a powerful feature unique to SAP Process Control.

 This definitely reduces your cost of compliance and speeds up your auditing process.
