Accounting information systems (AISs), the core module of any enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, are usually designed as centralised systems. Nowadays, the continuous development and applications of blockchain, or more broadly—distributed ledger technology (DLT), can change the architecture, overcome and improve some limitations of centralised systems, most notably security and privacy. An increasing number of authors are suggesting the application of blockchain technologies in management, accounting and ERPs. This paper aims to examine the emerging literature on this field, and an immediate result is that blockchain applications can have significant benefits. The paper’s innovative contribution and considerable objective are to examine if blockchain can be successfully integrated with AIS and ERPs. We find that blockchain can facilitate integration at multiple levels and better serve various purposes as auditing compliance. To demonstrate that, we analyse e-procurement systems and operations using case study research methodology. The findings suggest that DLT, decentralised finance (DeFI), and financial technology (FinTech) applications can facilitate integrating AISs and ERP systems and yield significant benefits for efficiency, productivity and security.

This paper investigates the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and corporate control in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) emerging market. An exploratory study was conducted to derive the research questions. The nonprobability purposive sampling technique was implemented to select 10 highly experienced interviewees. In-depth primary data was collected through semi-structured interviews during 2019. Qualitative content analysis was used to answer the research questions. The results show a positive impact of AI on firm productivity and the auditing process, but uncertain influence on accounting information systems. More specifically, AI intervention increases firm productivity, creates new jobs and speeds up work processes. However, current AI technology is less likely to redefine auditing roles and still insufficient for developing accounting information systems. Human integration with AI systems will lead to more efficient results. This paper increases our understanding of how AI techniques can improve corporate control practices and the importance of selecting appropriate accounting professionals to decrease AI operation risks.

The first technology to be elaborated is Big Data and its potential to change the business landscape, especially in the field of automating operation processes, customer engagements, and predictive decision-making process. Secondly, the Blockchain Technology as an example of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT), which adoption brings new possibilities in eliminating or redefining the role of entities external to the company. Cloud Computing i.e. Cloud Accounting is the third technology which is elaborated in this paper through the services it offers on the cloud, especially the way AIS process, store and backup the sensitive and confidential data. Last but not least, Artificial Intelligence (AI), a technology that could change the professional services, the need, and opportunities that are provided for a solution to the current accounting issues. In summary, taking into account the relevant literature and the perception of the respondents-practitioners, increased use of these technologies is necessary because their application reduces costs; increases transparency and confidence in information; flexibility, i.e. no time and space restrictions on their use, etc., which is especially useful in the current state of Pandemic, caused by the virus COVID-19.
