The appropriately named Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance Toolkit includes a whole range of materials specifically put together to both introduce, and take you through this most important of legislation.
As security is such a major theme on the Act, many organizations are using the international ISO standards. The ISO 27001 Portal outlines these. A copy of the standards, and security policies, can be obtained via the ISO 17799 Toolkit.

The Sarbanes Oxley Act :: View topic - Credit notes
Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2012 1:32 pm Post subject: Credit notes
Hi, just a quick question: if a credit note is issued on a customer account to cancel an invoice that has already been paid, is it a breach of SOX not to refund the money but to leave it on the account for use against future invoices? Our policy is that the customer has to give us written authorization before we clear the credit note on their account against any invoice; however, provided the above policy is applied, I am not aware of this being a SOX breach? Many thanks in advance.
No SOX issues as long as the actions follow your Company's policies on refunds of credit balances and the credit balance is carried on the balance sheet.
