Yesterday, I had discussed some of the configurable controls in SAP. Today, I am discussing some inherent controls in SAP R/3. SAP comes with many predefined controls. Such controls do not need to be configured seperately in SAP. Such inherent controls are helpful in preventing any major errors since SAP itself prevents the same thorough such inherent controls. I have given an illustrative list of inherent controls in SAP R/3 below. I would ask readers to add more such controls in the comments.

1. Duplicate checks through message control
2. Sequential documents thorugh number ranges
3. Automatic integration and postings
4. Online data analysis
5. All transactions through unique documents
6. History of transactions executed by users retained including date, time and user.
7. Logging and history of program changes
