ACL 303 – Advanced Functions and Scripts

In this three-day workshop, you will learn how to use ACL™ functions and scripts to gain new insight into your data and do more in less time. Functions let you investigate your data in ways you haven’t thought of before, adding power and detail to your analysis. Scripts let you automate routine ACL tasks, freeing up time to concentrate on activities that require critical thinking and judgement. Scripts also help preserve best practices, which prevents errors, and results in better controls in your organisation. ACL Certified trainers will show you how to implement scripts into your daily routine, and they will guide you through activities that illustrate how to work with scripts and functions efficiently and easily.

Testimonials

"For a while now, Satori Group have been our providers of ACL support and in both cases there has been no convincing reason to change.
As with their recent assistance in automating our continuous controls monitoring they were professional, self driven and flexible in delivering a fixed product for a fixed price. We did not have to hold their hand and this allowed us as a small unit to focus on what we are best at."
