Learning objective

Complete entity submission, validation, adjustment, elimination and approval of consolidated results.

Roles

Finance, process owners, key users, IT, consultants and internal audit

Prerequisites

  • Confirm entities, periods, currencies, masters and access.
  • Prepare approved normal and exception test data.
  • Define cut-off, interfaces, approvals and changes.

Completion checks

  • Results trace to source document and accountable role.
  • Quantity, amount, currency, period and status reconcile.
  • Exceptions retain cause, action, owner and closure evidence.

Common errors

  • Masking source errors with manual adjustment.
  • Not freezing versions, making results irreproducible.
  • Testing only normal flow.

Thailand project note

Thai implementations should confirm Thai/English masters, THB and foreign currencies, Asia/Bangkok time, segregation of duties, approvals and local retention. This covers ERP process controls only; VAT, WHT, BOI, customs and statutory-accounting conclusions require qualified Thai professional review.
