Segregation of Duties

Hussein982

Hi All: I am reaching out for a help.

The goal here is to find out if the same person who submit an purchase order also approves the same purchase order. Hence, its a fail due to the segregation of duties issues. (You will notice in the below table that transaction # 4 is an anomaly).

You will notice that Transaction # 1 (Alan submit the PO and Dani approves it) which is fine.

Same thing on Transaction # 2 (Carl submit the PO and Alex and Fred approves it). Same applies to Transaction 3. 

The goal is to identify if I have anomalies similar to transaction 4. 

Appreciate if you could provide any workflow. 

Thank you in advance. 

	Approval Action	Approval sequence	Approval sequence 1	Approval sequence 2	Approval sequence 3	Approval sequence 4
Transaction 1	submit; approve	Alan; Dani	Alan	Dani	-	-
Transaction 2	submit; approve;approve	Carl;Alex;Fred	Carl	Alex	Fred	-
Transaction 3	submit; approve;approve;approve	Mark;Mauris;Jilbert;Magi	Mark	Mauris	Jilbert	Magi
Transaction 4	submit; approve	Alan S.	Alan S.	-	-	-

Hi @Hussein982 

Could you provide more examples (if possible, all possible examples) of what you would consider a fraud?

For this specific case of the Transaction 4, an easy way of knowing if something is a fraud is to see if the cell contains ;. If there is no ; there is no registered approval sequence.
