Hello everyone, I just want to let you know that the site will be offline sometime in July for an upgrade along with a move to a new host.  Depending on how things go this could be over several days.

How many people here are internal auditors?  I'd love some ideas on ways to use IDEA in all sorts of areas.  I work for a tribal govt in Internal Audit and am also a CFE.  I use IDEA in a variety of ways usually for special projects like the new Covid 19 payroll, and determining turnover but would love to develop some weekly/monthly recurring analysis using the data I can get from our accounting system and the HR system.  Eventually I'd like to get access to the gaming data.    How many have the IDEA certifications?  I've been looking at jobs and a lot of

Hi!!
While I was studying, i tried to make a join between 2 databases that I already have both IMD files.
I have a criteria inside IDEA, but I can't use the same criteria using IdeaScripting..
Would you mind helping me to fix it? Please!
 
Set db = Client.OpenDatabase("SR3_STEP1.IMD")
Set task = db.JoinDatabase
task.FileToJoin "SR3_STEP2.IMD"
task.IncludeAllPFields
task.AddSFieldToInc "ID_SR"

Just got an email that I qualify to take the CIDA exam and wonder how useful having that certification actually is?  I'm a CFE and have the IIA's Certified Govt Audit Professional.

I have this and it breaks down various areas to audit (AP, AR, GL, etc) and gives a list of things to do but no examples of how to do them using IDEA?  Is there somewhere that provides this information?  Is there a script out there or in the Analysis area?  Thanks in advance.

I did a webinar for SAMA on custom functions.  It is not available on YouTube if you want to see it.  It is about 45 minutes long, first 30 minutes is my presentation and the rest is questions.  I go through three items, one is a simple custom function to show how they can be created, two is showing how you can take a fairly difficult equation in the Equation Editor and make it more readable as a custom function and third is creating custom functions that aren't available in the Equation Editor.

Hello,
 

I want to thank you Brian and others who helped me with setting up and running a script automatically.  I got upgraded to version 11 and so far am just using Task Scheduler to run the script I needed.  It runs like a Ferrari and is saving me about a days worth of work so THANK YOU so much!

Hello @ all,
first of all many thanks to this forum. Here you will always find inspiration for new projects and competent help and advice!
 
I don't know if someone can help me with my current problem.
In my work I regularly use IDEA10. In this context I have made a suggestion for an extensive macro to make certain processes more efficient. On the part of my German employer I was informed that a corresponding macro would not save any time. I spare myself a comment on this.
