Achieve Compliance through Data Validation and Thoroughly Established Business Process

The project management discipline has become integral to corporate success and now more than ever management needs to examine their project environment for internal controls and validity of data to mitigate risk and corporate exposure.

The Sarbanes–Oxley Act is a United States federal law which set standards for all U.S. public company boards, management and public accounting firms.

eTimeMachine's internal controls are ready for the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX).

With eTimeMachine in place, companies have the tools to comply with legislated reporting and operational standards. Corporations can be confident that their decisions are being made based on accurate and validated information. eTimeMachine’s transaction based infrastructure and matrix based approval workflow validates, date stamps, stores and restricts changes to all approved data entered into its system. Changes can only be made through debits and credits, thus producing comprehensive audit trails to support project performance and cost reporting.

eTimeMachine's Configurable Business Rules (CBR) is a module within eTimeMachine Enterprise that allows users to enhance and customize the system's logic to support their business processes. eTimeMachine Enterprise easily assimilates into any business environment by adopting and facilitating a company's unique set of business processes
