This study aimed to empirically examine the impact of accounting information technology use on employee performance at MSMEs in Jepara Regency. The study sample consisted of 105 employees who use accounting information technology and purposive sampling was used. The results showed that the variables of accounting information use, incentives, utilization of technology, and technology relevance significantly affect employee perfomance, while work culture and interpersonal communication skills do not affect employee performance. Keywords: accounting information, work culture, incentives, information technology, interpersonal communication, employee perfomance

Purpose of the study: This study aims to examine the causes of seaport congestion at Chittagong seaport. Seaports are vital instruments of international trade and a key to the economic growth of any country. Seaport congestion is a significant issue faced by most of the seaport. Shipping lines carry the cargo from one seaport to another; seaport congestion faced at the one port has a detrimental effect on the economy and trade of the country. Methodology: This study used the survey-based data collected design through convenience sampling from the port employees. The collected data were analysed with SmartPLS 3.2.1. Main Findings: The results of importance-performance matrix analysis (IPMA) reveals that the three most important factors causing the congestion at seaport are information technology, equipment, and time. Research implications: The study findings advocate that seaport authorities need to improve the information technology use at the seaport as well as the equipment utilised for handling the cargo. However, congestion issues can only be resolved by taking a holistic approach and involving all the stakeholders to improve the Chittagong port efficiency as well as bringing trade growth for the country. The novelty of the study: Current work is that the data was collected from one seaport only but the analysis supported the arguments that the seaport equipment, labour, and customs significantly contributing to the seaport congestion. However, the impact of the infrastructure and information technology is insignificant on the seaport congestion as perceived by the study respondents.

IT business value research examines the organizational performance impacts of information technology. In this paper, we apply the value configuration of the value shop to describe and measure organizational performance. The value shop consists of the five primary activities of problem understanding, solutions to problems, decisions on actions, implementation of actions, and evaluations of actions in an iterative problem-solving cycle. Police investigation work is defined as value shop activities. Our empirical study of Norwegian police results in significant relationships between information technology use and investigation performance for all primary activities. The most important primary activities for IT use are problem understanding and implementation of actions, as both significantly improve value shop performance.

The article covers the methodological issues of mathematical and statistical evaluation of the information technology use. The necessity of using information technologies to ensure control system flexibility has been substantiated. The impact of the level of integration of implemented information technologies on the increase of production management efficiency through data processing models and use of a single information space has been determined. To achieve the appropriate characteristics of stochastic processes of information technology, it is proposed to use methodological approaches to modeling on the basis of mathematical and statistical evaluation with elements of correlation and regression analysis. We have established the features of regression model development on the basis of which the estimation of the modeled process is carried out in the forecasting period. The paper investigates the issue of modeling methodology based on correlation and regression models and special cases in their evaluation. The main stages of model development and the sequence of their implementation are given. The impact on the number of enterprises that use computer technology in their activities, such factors as: Internet connection, the use of social media and the availability of websites has been assessed. Particular attention is paid to the use of social media as one of the key resources in defining the ideology of using information resources. The model parameters were estimated by the least square method. The analysis of the influence of the studied factors has been carried out based on the obtained regression model parameters taking into account their significance on the influence of the process of information technology use. The necessity of theoretical substantiation of interdependent factor effect with the application of variance analysis and mathematical theory of hypotheses has been proved.
