OpenPages Audit Management Sampling

Sampling Requirement;
'Open Pages IAM should provide a medium to gather population from external system & apply sampling techniques and reverse sampling techniques to generate sample tests for audit planning, IIA recommended sampling techniques should be configurable."

Proposed Solution:

Respected development Team to create sampling object, the object should allow following methods to upload population;

  • Excel (FastMap) upload

  • ETL

Once population is extracted, object should allow selecting any of sampling techniques like Random Sampling, N Sampling or Stratified Sampling. Object should allow copy results of sampling in sampling object for testing.

Please note, Sampling is requirement of any Audit process, its important to keep sampling to pitch Open Pages Audit Management as end to end solution. SAP, ours major competitor in this region, also offers this feature

    Thank you again for submitting this RFE!

    IBM has considered the request. While we are aligned with the request, it is unlikely to be addressed in the next 18 months. If this request receives continued customer interest, it may be resubmitted for consideration after 18 months from the submit date.

    One of the key diffciulties we face in selling IAM is that OpenPages doesn't give its auditors samples with workpapers, sampling and tests are sampling are done outside the system which is can not be tracked and managed. We would live to have this feature.
