SOX Scoping Decision

Runs on the existing Process item for the one business process under decision — it enriches that Process item and the Control and Risk items in its RCM, never creating a duplicate. Determine whether the process is SOX-relevant and, if so, scope its key controls — otherwise document the exclusion. Consumes the Annual ICFR Scoping & Risk Assessment handoff package (accepted materiality set, scoping thresholds, aggregation floor). Named deliverables: the assessment worksheet, the SOX-relevance determination memo, the resulting Risk & Control Matrix (RCM) scope (Control and Risk items with live links), and the exclusion memo — compiled into a signed scoping decision package. Hands that signed package off to the downstream SOX Process Walkthrough for the in-scope slice, or routes a full exclusion into the annual monitoring/refresh cycle. Out of scope: entity-level materiality, significant accounts, and fraud-risk assessment, which are owned by the upstream Annual ICFR Scoping & Risk Assessment, and process understanding and control verification, which are owned by the downstream SOX Process Walkthrough.
