An accounting information system (AIS) is a system of collecting, storing and processing financial and accounting data that is used by [decision maker]]s. An accounting information system is generally a computer-based method for tracking accounting activity in conjunction with information technology resources.
It Processes Financial and non-Financial Transactions. (Customer Information)
Accounting Information System

Management often requires information that goes beyond the capability of AIS.
As organizations grow in size and complexity, specialized functional areas emerge, requiring additional
information for production planning and control, sales forecasting, inventory warehouse
Management Information System(MIS)

with business events that occur frequently. a firm may process thousands of
transactions Transactions are grouped into Cycles TPS Consists of three Cycles the revenue cycle the expenditure cycle conversion cycle Each cycle captures and processes different
types of financial transactions.

The general ledger system (GLS) financial reporting system (FRS) are two

AIS Subsystems: General Ledger/Financial Reporting Systems

less frequent events, such as stock transactions, mergers, and claim settlements,
The financial reporting system measures and reports the status of financial resources and the changes in those resources.
The FRS communicates this information primarily to external users. Much of this information consists of traditional financial statements, tax returns, and other legal documents.
AIS Subsystems: General Ledger/Financial Reporting Systems

Provides the internal financial information needed to manage a business.
Managers must deal immediately with many day-to-day business problems,
as well as plan and control their operations. Managers require different information for
the various kinds of decisions they must make

AIS Subsystems: Management Reporting System

The Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002 (Pub.L. 107–204, 116 Stat. 745, enacted July 30, 2002), also known as the "Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act" (in the Senate) and "Corporate and Auditing Accountability and Responsibility Act" (in the House) and more commonly calledSarbanes–Oxley, Sarbox or SOX, is a United States federal law that set new or expanded requirements for all U.S. public company boards, management and public accounting firms. There are also a number of provisions of the Act that also apply to privately held companies, for example the willful destruction of evidence to impede a Federal investigation.
WHAT Is SOX-wikipedia.org
![Page 12: Lecture 4 the information system - ais framework](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082905/58827fa91a28ab24788b636b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SOX legislation requires that management must design and implement internal controls over the entire financial reporting process.
This includes the financial reporting system, the general ledger system, and the transaction processing systems that supply the data for financial reporting. SOX further requires that management certify these controls and that the external auditors express an opinion on control effectiveness.
Without such a model, critical management and audit responsibilities under SOX may not be met.
