E-accounting or online accounting, is the application of online and Internet technologies to the business accounting function. Similar to e-mail being an electronic version of traditional mail, e-accounting is "electronic enablement" of lawful accounting and traceable accounting processes which were traditionally manual and paper-based. E-accounting involves performing regular accounting functions, accounting research and the accounting training and education through various computer based /internet based accounting tools such as digital tool kits, various internet resources, international web-based materials, institute and company databases which are internet based, web links, internet based accounting software and electronic financial spreadsheet tools to provide efficient decision making. Online accounting through a web application is typically based on a simple monthly charge and zero-administration approach to help businesses concentrate on core activities and avoid the hidden costs associated with traditional accounting software such as installation, upgrades, exchanging data files, backup and disaster recovery. E-accounting does not have a standard definition but merely refers to the changes in accounting due to computing and networking technologies.〔(Deshmukh, Idea Group, 2006 )〕 Most e-accounting services are offered as SaaS (Software-as-a-service). ==Uses== *Accounts payable *Accounts receivable *Payroll *Job costing *Financial write-up and reporting *Bank and account reconciliations *Quarterly tax reporting *Compliance reporting *Tax return preparation *Internal financial consultant *Establish the control system *Inform those concerned of financial condition *Supply the business with adequate information *Maintain contact with government agencies, bankers, etc. *Provide insight, courses of action *Facilitate future planning and growth 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「E-accounting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
