To Accounting (Terminal)
Accounting
department
calculates all of the
journal vouchers
and evaluates the
production
performance.
The two general threats in the production
cycle are loss of data and poor performance.
Loss of production data decreases the
monitoring of inventory. The applicable
control procedures for loss of data are:
backup and disaster recovery planning and
restricting access to cost data. The
applicable control procedure for poor
performance are improved and timelier
reporting.
FIVE SUGGESTIONS
Don’t inspect at inspection site but instead at
the production area.
Use Radio Frequency IDs.
Goods that fail inspections should be sent to
rework.
Check inspection failure reasons to improve
on mistakes.
Random inspection instead of every product.
