Control Implementation
Installation of a control frequently consists of checking that a management rule (constraint) is effectively applied, either manually or by an IT program.
A constraint is represented by a check or a business rule that must be applied during processing.You can specify the management rules associated with a control in its Management Rules property page.
It is possible to specify processing that will implement the control or the management rules associated with the control. You can specify control implementation means in the Characteristic tab, Scope section.
The control can be implemented by:
• a process: this can be the business process on which the control is implemented or it can be a risk preventive business process (example: "Account manager training" to prevent the "Overselling" risk)
A business process represents a system that offers products or services to an internal or external client of the company or organization. At the higher levels, a business process represents a structure and a categorization of the business. It can be broken down into other processes. The link with organizational processes will describe the real implementation of the business process in the organization. A business process can also be detailed by a functional view.• an operation: this is the operation on which the control is executed.
An operation is an elementary step in an organizational process executed by an org-unit. It cannot be broken down. An operation can be industrial (manufacturing a component), logistical (receiving a delivery), or can involve information processing (entering an order).
