There are many accounting processes within my organization. The accounting process within my organization that I feel needs to be improved using decision-making information systems is Accounts Payable. There may be many other accounting processes within my organization that need to be improved, but Accounts Payable is what I’m most familiar with. The accounting process of Accounts Payable (A/P) starts with invoices that are delivered to the A/P clerk. The A/P clerk opens each envelope that contains an invoice and identifies which department the invoice belongs. After each invoice has been identified to which department it goes, the invoice(s) are delivered to each department for approval. Each department has an appointed person who will approve the invoice for payment. The appointed persons are usually managers and have an approval authority limit. When an invoice is higher than the manager’s approval limit the invoice will have to obtain a second approval by another manager with a higher approval limit. Once the invoice is approved for payment, it is then sent back to the A/P clerk for processing. Before invoices are typed into the accounting system they are coded with the correct general ledger account number.
