If the only thing IT audit is using from a payroll system is the term listing, and our assurance team substantively tests term users in the application, and payroll is a limited risk account…. Why do we have to test full blown ITGC’s over the payroll system?

for the record, our assurance team told us not to test GITC’s but our IT execs weren’t having it because on a technicality you can’t rely on the IPE from a system without effective ITGC’s. Is this really what SOX audits have become???

You can if you test every instance of the report used

For more $$$$
