ProSystem fx® ActiveData

Audit fraud detection can be time-consuming and highly susceptible to errors when done manually. However, when you use ProSystem fx ActiveData to extract data, detect fraud and analyze data, it becomes a high-speed, automated process that locates at-risk data quickly and efficiently. And it’s easy to install and use, too.

Audit fraud detection and audit data analysis right out of the box

In the past, when you’ve purchased new software for your business, you’ve probably gone through a steep learning curve before it’s up and running. But that’s not the case with ActiveData — users typically put it to work from day one. Once installed, ActiveData is available from an additional pull-down menu within Microsoft® Excel®* and can immediately extract data and provide analysis for up to a million rows of data.
