Accounting Information Systems

by marshall-b-romney-paul-steinbart-barry-cushing, Barry E. Cushing, Paul J. Steinbart

This text seeks to show the reader how to design and use an accounting information system (AIS) to provide information useful for decision-making. Focus boxes providing real world examples of concepts, techniques and practices as described are interspersed in the text. This edition has chapters on the three basic functions of the AIS together with an understanding of what the system does manually, and on data modelling, covering how students can use query language to derive traditional financial statements and managerial reports from a database AIS.

I found this book (along with Gelinas Accounting Information System, recommended by the other 'guru') pretty much good. The cases included really help me to understand comprehensively about building a system for all financial cycle.

This one was okay. The beginning was fascinating but in the middle of the book it got very confusing and hard to understand.

nothing

I’m as finished with it as I’m going to get. The book was full, but then again I didn’t take the class that goes with it

[Sarah]

Pretty clear breakdown of how an AIS system works. This was a textbook for a class with a rather abysmal professor, and I'm thiking that combined with a stronger professor, this could be an excellent tool for teaching AIS.

[Raina Lie]

Input Control, Processing Control, and Output Control (chapter 8). Also mentioning about appropriate documentations (chapter 20)

[Michelle]

The book made far more sense than the class, but it is definitely dry.

[Ellen]

Full of useful information, however lacking a certain usability. I'm not the only one that complained about this book; it was not the most fun thing to read.
