Computerized Accounting System refers to a system where in the accounts of the enterprise
are maintained on a computer. An accounting system has a two aspects; first, it has to work
under a set of well-defined accounting concept and principles and, secondly it has to maintain
records and generate reports as defined by the user. These aspect can be full filled by
processing the transactions and events in accordance with the accounting principles and
adopting the software which is capable of generating the user- defined reports.
jobs and economic growth while raising income levels for a large segment of Sri Lankas
population. To achieve this, an integrated strategy is needed to overcome a wide array of
issues and constraints comprising inadequacies in management, limited access to finance and
modern technology, and impediments in the regulatory and incentive framework.
be necessary to explain more of the variance in business growth after coping with change.
Thus, the findings might be immense value to Small & Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) in
developing countries, such as Sri Lanka,
5. CHALLENGES
FOR
IMPLEMENTING
COMPUTERIZE
5. Controlling Access:
Controlling of hardware and software should be the first system security. The system should
be under lock and key to prevent hardware theft. Physical and electronic access control
techniques including keyboard locks, automatic logs, restricted access to systems and limited
after-hour use.
6. Passwords:
Passwords should be provided at all levels of system. They should be changed frequently or
as and when needed so that unauthorized users cannot enter into the system.
7. Backup Copies:
It is necessary to take frequent backups of all software and keep them separate from the usual
media. Backups are often taken on tapes and are used to restore data when the primary data
from the system fails. Software programs should also be taken if necessary.
8. Security for Backup:
Backups should be kept in secure place. Loss of backups means disaster for the company.
Protection of backups includes fireproof containers and away from the computer installation
site to avoid any natural disaster.
9. Network Control:
Most companies may have computers that exchange data with each other using a networking
architecture. In such cases, PC users can connect with another person/users and access files or
services from the machine.
Since outsiders [competitors] can also get connected to our network, special interest should
be shown on security of systems and data located on the internet.
When using a computerized accounting system the on computer, input screens have been
designed for ease of use. The main advantage is that each transaction needs only to be
inputted once, unlike a manual double entry system where two or three entries are required.
The computerized ledger system is fully integrated. This means that when a business
transaction is inputted on the computer it is recorded in a number of different accounting
records at the same time.
Reduce frustration management can be on top of their accounts and thus reduce stress
levels associated with what is not known.
The ability to deal in multiple currencies easily many computerized accounting packages
now allow a business to trade in multiple currencies with ease. Problems associated with
exchange rate changes are minimized.
Dependence on computer
If you use computer for accounting, then you will depend on computer, It will reduce you IQ
power. So after all you should some calculation on hand so that you mental level will also
update and active.
Failure of system
This is also disadvantage of computer accounting, So always make backup of your computer
accounting records. I am also suggesting you to clean the dust of your computer. This dust is
very dangerous for slowing and stopping of computer system.
8. RECOMMENDATIONS
AISs vendors should strive to provide custom made AISs packages that suit the needs and
requirements of SMEs. Also the packages should be easy to use and affordable. More so AISs
vendors should hold workshops with SMEs in order to educate them fully on the benefits of
using AISs.
Government through the ministry of information and communication technology, should
ensure that it provide easy access to computerized AISs through financing the purchasing of
computerized AISs by SMEs by providing subsidies on those SMEs that purchase AISs.
More so government through the Ministry of Small to Medium Enterprise should provide
collateral security to SMEs through providing financing of purchasing of initial assets of
SMEs so that they may in turn use the assets as collateral assets to access loans from banks.
Also SMEs should strive to employ qualified human resource personnel that are competent to
use computerized AISs. This will make it easy to use AISs.
With respect to trying to introduce non-users of entrepreneurs to a computerized accounting
system, it may be useful to consider business entrepreneurs those who are uninformed about
the benefits of using a CAS. This lack of knowledge may be a further result of the deficiency
in IT skills as reported by almost half of the nonuser entrepreneurs. Government should set
up training organizations offers a computerized accounting system specific skills
development program targeted to those involved in small businesses, to avoid reluctance
among retailers about the effectiveness in computer self-efficacy.
