The main aim of this study is to analyze how implementation of integrated information systems (IIS) effects management accounting. Findings based on data collected from 108 Croatian firms confirmed that IIS implementation caused significant management accounting changes. Estimated regression models revealed that the most important IIS characteristic were the analytical capabilities since it positively influenced management accounting changes in four dimensions: internal reporting, budgeting, application of modern accounting techniques and management accounting employees’ jobs. The quality of IIS implementation statistically significantly and positively influenced changes related to data collection and internal reporting. In the segment of budgeting, the quality of implementation of specialized budgeting software had significant and positive influence. The only negative correlation found was the one between the uncertainty of business environment and adoption of modern accounting techniques. Findings from this study provide unique insight into effects of IIS implementation in Croatian firms and can be used by different stakeholders. Firms and IIS vendors should put special focus on implementation of business analytics modules in order to achieve comprehensive benefits in management accounting practices. Providers of accountant’s education should consider the fact that contemporary IIS systems’ environment calls for development of additional skills in the area of information technology, business processes and business communication.

Organizations are increasingly dependent on information systems, and they invest dearly on systems to integrate disparate business functions, automate business processes, and support operations in order to sustain business and survive in a competition-intensive business environment. However, such systems have in many occasions failed fully or partially. The lack of “fit-to purpose” seems to be the common factor among most of the failed cases. This suggests that such systems are not selected, implemented, configured, or supported based on a proper analysis and understanding of the organization structure and hierarchy, business functions, business processes, and business environment. Evidently, the majority of organizations tend to emphasize system specifications that match their operational and tactical requirements, with little attention given to strategic requirements, culminating in issues with strategic planning and decision making. This chapter uses a survey and simple model based on the characteristics and competitiveness indicators of strategic information systems (SIS) to examine the impact of such systems on the business performance in 16 medium to large Arab organizations. The study concludes with an emphasis of the importance of SIS to help organizations achieve excellence and competitive advantage and realize business objectives and goals.

The business environment has evolved over time, so that it has become a dynamic and hyper-competitive environment. The business environment presents many risks. The purpose of the risks is to highlight the success or failure in the business, because some risks are inevitable and some risks can be controlled by companies. For a company to succeed and survive in a dynamic and hyper-competitive business environment, they must find and introduce radical and incremental innovations simultaneously. Over time, many small, medium and big companies have succeeded in implementing accounting information systems, in order to make their activity more efficient. Investing in accounting systems has a positive impact on the company because they improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization, as well as increase the performance. Increasing efficiency and effectiveness means better management and dissemination of information within the company, so that employees have easier access to information and based on them to take the best decisions. The research method used was quantitative using the questionnaire based on which we identified the main advantages and disadvantages of using accounting information systems, as well as the influence of these systems on the organization and the criteria underlying the choice of these systems. The most relevant results we obtained through our research were: accounting information systems offer both advantages and disadvantages, these systems improve the performance of the organization, and the criteria for choosing these systems depends most on the speed of implementation of the systems.

<p>Sistem informasi dan teknologi informasi (SI/TI) merupakan salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi keberhasilan suatu organisasi. Sebagai contoh, sistem informasi dan teknologi informasi pada salah satu organisasi yang ada yaitu Dinas Perindustrian dan Tenaga Kerja (Dispernaker) Kota Salatiga. Dispernaker dalam menjalankan tugasnya sudah menggunakan SI/TI tetapi penggunaanya belum maksimal, hal ini menyebabkan Dispernaker seringkali menemui masalah. Melihat kondisi masalah tersebut maka dibutuhkan suatu perencanaan strategis SI/TI yang dapat mendukung proses bisnis pada organisasi (dalam hal ini Dispernaker) sedangkan perencanaan strategis sendiri merupakan proses bagaimana organisasi mencapai atau merealisasikan tujuannya. Untuk dapat menerapkan perencanaan strategis yang sesuai dengan organisasi tentu melalui sebuah penelitian. Penelitian tersebut ialah penelitian perencanaan strategis sistem informasi dan teknologi informasi. Penelitian ini sendiri nantinya akan menggunakan metode <em>Ward and Peppard</em> yang dilakukan dengan menganalisis lingkungan bisnis juga lingkungan SI/TI secara internal dan eksternal.
