What is User Activity Insight?
User Activity Insight enables you to automate mitigating controls by continuously monitoring and documenting user activity for unusual or prohibited transactions. Define controls that monitor one transaction of a whole series. Reports can be used as evidence for mitigating controls while transaction usage history is helpful in designing and modifying roles.
User Activity Insight Software Capabilities
-
Independent Transaction Monitoring
Monitor transactions without impacting the performance of your ERP environment. User Activity Insight utilizes selected tables and pre-existing files within your ERP system for tracking user activity and eliminates the need for additional logging.
-
Historical User Activity Reporting
Business friendly reports provide insight into historical transaction usage in your ERP system. Reports show when a transaction occurs, who performed it, what they did, and how they received authorization to run the transaction. Historical trending is also available.
Business Friendly Reports
All of Approva’s reports are designed for use by managers of each business area, not just IT experts. Business users are presented with detailed information and descriptions that break complex ERP terminology down into understandable information.
Proactive Alerts
Managers have immediate access to information about what their employees are doing inside their ERP systems. By receiving automatic e-mail alerts based on defined controls, managers know exactly when users execute sensitive transactions.
Reduced Cost of Compensating Controls
Eliminate hours spent performing and documenting manual controls by automated compensating controls.
Reduced Fraud & Mistakes
Identify potentially fraudulent activity by monitoring actual usage of sensitive transactions.
Reduced Burden on IT Staff
Proactive alerts reduce the burden on IT managers and ERP system experts who would otherwise have to constantly run reports to get visibility into transactions.
Streamlined Audit Preparation
Satisfy regulatory, audit, and security requirements with thorough reporting on transaction history. Audit trails are stored for easy retrieval, including historical transaction usage, trending, and grouping.
Reduced ERP License Fee
Optimize use of ERP licenses by identifying unused licenses and redesigning roles.
