A. Emergency changes are acceptable as long as they are properly documented as part of the process.
B. Instances of jobs not being completed on time is a potential issue and should be investigated, but it is not the greatest concern.
C. The overriding of computer processing jobs by computer operators could lead to unauthorized changes to data or programs. This is a control concern; thus, it is always critical.
D. The audit should find that all scheduled jobs were run and that any exceptions were documented. This would not be a violation.
