Accounting Information System(DBMS Approach) Yohanes Handoko, SE
Accounting Information System • Definition • Purpose • Uses • Keyword
AIS Definition • A group of structure and procedure based on Information Technology that working together in processing transaction data into accounting information for a certain purpose.
Purpose • Efficiency • Effectivity • Control • Strategic Weapon
Uses • Producing External Reports • Supporting Routine Activities • Decision Support • Planning and Control • Implementing Internal Control
Keyword • Structure • Procedure • Technology • DataInformation • Purpose • Integration • Control • Accounting Cycle (AIS Subsystem)
Structure of AIS • Database as the foundation of AIS • Subsystem of AIS • AIS Application • Network and Integration of AIS • Management & Departement in organization
AIS Financial Report Revenue Cycle Expenditure Cycle GL Cycle HR Cycle Investment Cycle Database
Procedure of AIS • Data and Information flow in Accounting Objects • Data and Information flow in Accounting Cycle • Example: Acquisition Cycle. requisition – order - purchase – delivery – receive
Technology: Ms.Access • Database Management System
DBMS-Definition • Software system that is used to create, maintain, and provide controlled access to user databases • Component of DBMS: • Table (database) • Query • Form • Report • Switchboard Manager (Control) • Security (Control) • Database Splitter & Merge (Integration)
Database • An organized collection of logically related data, usually designed to meet the information needs of multiple users in an organization (different with reporsitory). • Personal Database • Workgroup Database • Departement Database • Enterprise Database
Why DBMS? • File Processing Approach – Database Approach • Disadvantages of File Processing Approach and Advantages of Database Approach
Disadvantages of File Processing Approach • Program-Data dependence • Duplication of Data • Limited Data Sharing • Lenghty Development Times • Excessive Program Maintenance
Advantages of Database Approach • Program-Data independence • Minimal Data Redudancy • Improved Data Consistency • Improved Data Sharing • Increased Productivity of Application Development • Enforcement of Standard • Improved Data Quality
Cost and Risk of the Database Approach • Specialized Personnel • Instalation and Management Cost and Complexity • Conversion Cost • Need for Explicit Backup and Recovery • Organizational Conflict
Data • Description about objects, events, activities, and transaction, which don’t have any meaning or have a direct influence to the user • Example: GN 0000-00 • Metadata: Data that describe the properties or characteristics of end user data, and the context of that data
Data files • A data file is a computer file which stores data for use by a computer application or system (different with program file, configuration files, or directory files) • Two types of data files: master files and transaction files (what for?)
Information • Data that have been processed in such way as to increase the knowledge of the person who uses the data
Data - Information • Input the transaction data into the system • Process and query the data to obtain information • Information: Should have meanings for the user
Control • Risk • Internal Control • General Control – Application Control • Preventive, Corrective, Detective
Accounting Cycles/Transaction Cycles(AIS Subsystem) • Revenue • Expense • General Ledger • Investment • Human Resource • Production • Inventory - Jones & Rama in Ch2, organized business process in 3 main transaction cycle: • Acquisition • Conversion • Revenue
Basic Ability in Developing AIS • Accounting logic • DBMS development concept, creating ER-diagram (entity, attribute and relationship), normalization • Converting accounting logic into DBMS
Basic of Accounting logic • Accounting equation • Preparing income statement and balance sheet
DBMS development concept • Defining Entity, Attribute, and Relationship • Creating ER-Diagram • ER-Diagram Mapping into Table • Normalization • Query
Converting Accounting logic into DBMS • 3C: Code of Account, Calendar, Currency in creating financial report based on DBMS. • Creating query based on accounting logic to generate a financial report.
Grouping accounting data based on code of account • Code 1* – Asset – Balance Sheet • Code 2* – Liabilities – Balance Sheet • Code 3* – Equity – Balance Sheet • Code 4* – Revenue – Income Statement • Code 5* – Expense – Income Statement
