Tutorial #3
1. Your IT company deals in laptops, desktops, and servers. You also sell computer parts like
hard drives and motherboards. Design a coding scheme for your company.

2. If an auditor suspected an unusual relationship between a purchasing agent and certain


suppliers, how could drill-down be used to collect data?

3. Give three examples each of the advantages and the disadvantages of an ERP system with
a centralized database.

4. Your organization is planning to implement an ERP system. Some managers in the


organization favor the big bang approach. Others are advocating a phased-in approach. The
CEO has asked you, as a project leader, to write a memo summarizing the advantages and
disadvantages of each approach and to make a recommendation. This is a traditional
organization with a strong internal hierarchy. The company was acquired in a merger 2 years
ago, and the ERP project is an effort on the part of the parent company to standardize
business processes and reporting across the organization. Prior to this, the organization had
been using a general ledger package that is acquired in 1979. Most of the transaction
processing is combination of manual and batch processing. Most employees think that the
legacy system works well. At this point, the implementation project is behind schedule.
