d. An accounts receivable aging report that included all customer accounts

· MM01 and MM05 · Setup Parameter ID and Create Material Master for Raw Materials

o Compatible because MM01 is setting up the system to certain default setting and MM05 is setting up a certain vendor in the master data. The same individual could do both processes (if they do not have contact with a vendor) because they are very similar and would require the same level of authorization.

· MM07 and MM10 · Create Material Master for Finished Products and Create Purchase Order

o Compatible, the two occur in different cycles with no direct interaction.

· MM08 and MM10 · Create Purchasing Info Records and Create Purchase Order

o Incompatible because MM08 is creating the master data for the purchase materials to automatically pick a certain vendor and MM10 is creating the purchase order. Purchase orders are usually created by the purchasing department who could want to use a different vendor than the one listed in the master data. The purchasing department should have to seek approval before making these changes which is why they should not be making the master data.

· MM02 and MM12 · Post Statistical key Figures and Create an Invoice Receipt

o Incompatible, the two are different kinds of duties involving the same vendor data.

SD06 and SD18 · SD06 - Create sales views for finished products. · SD18 - Post goods issue

· Incompatible, SD06 is to create a master data for the finished products and SD18 is just telling the system you are shipping out certain inventory. They involve the same master data and could falsify sales.

SD01 and SD12 · SDO1 - Create general ledger reconciliation account for accounts receivable and sale revenue and sale discounts. · SD12 - Assign item proposal to customer.

· Compatible, these both require master data information to be entered and the item proposal leaves no reason for fraud.

SD07 and SD21 · SD07 - Create material prices. SD21 - Create sales order using item proposal

· Incompatible - The individual making the sales prices should not be also issuing sales orders. The individual can change the prices for certain customers.

SD02 and SD19 · SD02 - Create customer · SD19 - Billing the customer

· Incompatible, creating the customer information in the system and billing the customer leave room for them to change things in the master data before billing.
