Learning Objective

  • To explore the definition of SOD roles and processes.
  • To examine the risks of inadequate SOD.
  • To examine SOD within individual business processes.
  • To identify SOD opportunities in role assignments.
  • To examine control mechanisms.

Course Overview

Segregation of duties (SOD) is the cornerstone of strong internal control. The inability to maintain proper SOD can hamper an organization's ability to deliver service efficiently. Personnel often struggle with the proper concepts of what contributes to SOD.  When resources are scarce, the concept is even more difficult.

This course will delve deeper into core business processes and examine the concepts of which duties should be segregated to provide adequate internal control. The basics of segregation of duties indicate that no one individual should be given or assigned job functions in more than one of the categories: Asset custody, Authorization and approval, Recordkeeping, and Reconciliation.

In this Course will examine each of the following business processes and discuss key roles/tasks that should be evaluated for proper segregation of duties.

  • Revenue and receivables
  • Disbursement
  • Procure to pay
  • Treasury and cash
  • Inventory
  • Payroll

Join this CPE Auditing webinar to gain a comprehensive understanding of the essential principles of segregation of duties (SOD) and how to apply them effectively in various core business processes, enhancing your organization's internal control and operational efficiency.
