Stellent, released version 7.6 of its Stellent Sarbanes-Oxley Solution, designed to help companies streamline their 404 and 302 processes for complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
This version aims to further simplifies global enterprise compliance with enhancements to the application’s shared component and process libraries, language and localization capabilities, internal audit testing and management assessment processes, and configuration features. The new features in version 7.6 are market- and customer-driven enhancements designed to increase efficiency, speed implementations and improve ease-of-use in organizations striving to meet the complexities of global compliance legislation. The functionality was designed with input on the Sarbanes-Oxley compliance process from Protiviti Inc., a leading internal audit and business and technology risk consulting firm, with whom Stellent holds a strategic integration and consulting agreement.
New Features
*Enhanced master component library — provides the ability to store multiple libraries of controls, risks, assertions and attachments for centralized maintenance of shared components with local variances where needed.
*Enhanced master process library — a set of processes that can be managed centrally while allowing local variances as necessary.
*Internationalization — locale setting is available on the end user’s browser or can be overridden by determining a user preference. Available languages include Dutch, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish.
Support of emerging assessment methodologies
*Selective control testing — allows auditors to select a set of controls that may span multiple processes; create tests to be performed at the local organizational level; and bring forward select information from previous test results for use within current tests.
*Parallel testing by control owner — ability to assign owners at the control level for managing control specific documentation and control owner assessments. Parallel workflow streamlines the assessment process by distributing activities.
