l.

Bajaj Auto (BAL) uses SAP-S4 HANA as the accounting software. SAP ensures an audit trail, providing standard functionality and logging in all changed data in the system. This functionality and audit trail feature in SAP has been operational throughout the year for all relevant transactions recorded through the application at BAL.

At BAL, accounting documents are used to record all business transactions – posted documents are stored in SAP for every transaction and a financial document once posted cannot be deleted or changed for data points impacting financials. The SAP environment at BAL is appropriately governed and only authorised users can make postings in SAP, while interacting with the system through the application layer. Normal/regular users are not granted nor have direct SAP-DB (database) or super user level access which would allow them to make any changes to financial documents directly which have already been posted through the application.

To operate the SAP-application and the SAP-DB, the system necessarily requires a set of super-users to have DB-level accesses. These super-users are obligated to perform system related tasks. They are not allowed to carry out any direct changes/edits to financial transactions in the SAP-DB, which if carried out is ill-legal. In the event of an unauthorised change by a super user specifically, these can be detected through an investigative approach and/or using services provided by SAP as part of their financial data quality check service, which validates the consistency of financials based on the request of the client. Therefore, while the SAP-DB at the moment does not have the concurrent real time audit trail feature in view of its infeasibility, the tracking of changes can be done through a focused enquiry process.

m.
