What would be the most efficient means to capture errors in data processing?
Well-designed data entry screens
Hash totals
Segregation of duties
Programmed edit checks
The use of hash totals is an effective method to reliably detect errors in data processing. Automated controls such as programmed edit checks or well-designed data entry screens are preventive controls. Enforcing segregation of duties primarily ensures that a single individual does not have the authority to both create and approve a transaction; this is not considered to be a method to detect errors, but a method to help prevent errors. How do we know that the data entry is numbers to sum to a total, it could be capturing PII information.
