Abstract

Multi-level marketing companies are very dependent on the reliability of information technology used, because with this information technology, multi-level marketing distributors can rely on information relating to the development of their networks that have been built and maintained, and the commission income that has been and will be received. System reliability depends on the quality of the controls applied. Therefore, this study will evaluate the information technology control of Pinnacle software at PT X, a multi-level marketing company in Indonesia, and ensure the calculation of commission income and bonus of PT X’s distributors conducted by the Pinnacle software is in accordance with the commitment offered by the company. This research was conducted with primary data collection methods through interviews, observation and testing. The test results state that in general the information technology control of the Pinnacle software in the form of general controls and applications has been done correctly and precisely. The comparison of commission calculation based on Pinnacle results is also in accordance with PT X commission payment scheme policies. Although the Pinnacle network and system security risks have been transferred to the Head Office in the United States as the software license owner, it is recommended that PT X still have written backup plan and contingencies in dealing with disaster conditions and socialized to employees. So that the reliability of Pinnacle PT X software is also supported by its ability to recover faster in the event of a disaster.
