Are there any RPA software tools that handle data entry automation with SOX controls and human review?

Yes. Several RPA platforms can support data entry automation with SOX-style controls and human review/approval steps. The key is usually not just the bot itself, but the platform’s audit trail, segregation of duties, exception handling, and workflow approval features.

Common options include:

• UiPath
  Strong for attended/unattended automation, approvals, audit logging, queue-based processing, and integration with human-in-the-loop workflows.

• Automation Anywhere
  Provides role-based access, credential vaulting, logging, exception management, and approval workflows that can support controlled finance processes.

• Blue Prism
  Often favored in regulated environments due to its governance model, credential management, detailed auditability, and controlled deployment patterns.

• Microsoft Power Automate + Power Platform
  Works well when paired with approval flows, Dataverse, audit logging, and Microsoft Purview/compliance tooling.

• WorkFusion
  More focused on finance/back-office automation and can support exception handling and review workflows.

What to look for if SOX controls matter:

• Full audit trails
• Role-based access control
• Segregation of duties
• Approval/review steps before posting transactions
• Exception queues for human review
• Credential vaulting
• Version control and change management
• Process logs retained for audit

Typical SOX-friendly pattern:

1. Bot extracts or enters data.
2. Bot flags exceptions or threshold breaches.
3. Human reviewer approves/rejects.
4. Bot posts only approved transactions.
5. All actions are logged and reportable.

If you want, I can also give you:
