Accounting Information Systems - A Practitioner Emphasis
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book emphasizes the use of accounting systems to conduct business operations with special emphasis on reporting requirements. Because over 90 percent of accounting systems are licensed rather than internally custom developed, this book gives students the theoretical foundation and skills they will need to conduct a requirements analysis, search for a commercial solution, and successfully implement the software package selected. In addition to learning the essential AIS concepts (see table of contents), you will see much discussion and examples of commercial accounting systems software as it is designed and as it should be designed. Each chapter contains a set of learning objectives to facilitate the assessment of learning outcomes and includes several hands-on learning activities at the end of the chapters.
