A.

Purpose And Scope

This program is designed to enable the auditor to examine and test the effectiveness of controls and procedures at data centers using IBM System/34, 36, 38 and AS/400 computers.

Included in the audit program are suggested audit steps that are designed to obtain evidence that key control procedures are operating effectively.

The audit approach includes: background information, standards, documentation, implementation/change controls, backup procedures (including those financial files required by law - such as general ledger, payroll, receivables, sales, cost of sales and any master file/tables required to complete the financial information - such as chart of accounts, cost, price masters), disaster recovery, computer operations and logical access security.

This guide should be read through in its entirety before an audit is commenced in order to gain a thorough understanding of the audit approach.

The Appendix contains added information on classifying data and background information on the various machines that are covered in this audit program.
