The following five statements describe either the achievement of a control goal (i.e., a system success) or a system deficiency (i.e., a system failure).

Control Goals or System Deficiencies

1. 1. The process in receiving for counting and recording goods is time consuming and error prone.
2. 2. In a periodic recording environment, helps to ensure the information system control goal of input validity of the receiving reports.
3. 3. Quantity recorded as received does not correspond to the quantity actually received.
4. 4. Goods recorded as received do not match what was ordered and sent by the vendor.
5. 5. Goods are not being received in a timely manner.
