    Accounting Information Systems (AISs) delivers unprecedented coverage of these types of financial systems. The text examines how developments in IT affect business processes and controls, the effect of recent regulatory developments on the design and operation of AISs, and how you can use AISs to add value to an organization.

    The 16th Edition covers important new IT developments in AIS, such as robotic process automation, blockchain and data analytics. Not only will you see how AIS has changed the role of an accountant, but you'll also be prepared for a successful accounting career in public practice, industry or government.
