They are an unavoidable component of any enterprise data processing system. Use of spread sheets can never be fully eliminated from any enterprise data processing environment. The only way to counter the problem is to minimize their ill effects with proper IT policies and data processing strategies. In this article, to begin with a quick analysis of the data base types and the changing needs of data processing requirements of any Enterprise, small or big in size, is given. An attempt has been made to trace the origin of the very concept of __ampersandsign#39;Spread Sheet Risk__ampersandsign#39; from historic perspective. A formal theory is proposed to establish that __ampersandsign#39;Spread Sheet Risk__ampersandsign#39; is an unavoidable evil , specially in financial data processing. Next an attempt has been made to theoretically examine the trend of __ampersandsign#39;Spread sheet risk__ampersandsign#39; over the past few years, and estimate the growth rates. Strategies for monitoring the risk and effectively managing the same have been suggested , using proofs which are based on the Software Engineering Principles, established data growth laws, and the dynamics of tiny data to big-data evolution. It can be stated that this article conclusively proves that - Spread Sheet Risk is now an established concept , which is a minimizable evil, but which can never be eliminated. Hence it is necessary for the Enterprises to train their managers adequately to be able to select and adopt appropriate control measures.</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords/> <URLs> <Abstract>https://aimsjournal.org/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=3364&title=ORIGIN OF SPREAD SHEET RISK AND IT STRATEGIES FOR ITS CONTROL IN ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References/> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
