SIGASYS Mission

The mission of the Association for Information Systems (AIS) Special Interest Group on Accounting Information Systems (SIG-ASYS) is to globally promote and facilitate the creation, presentation and publication of research examining the impact or use of information technology in accounting environments. SIGASYS strives to be the global leader in linking and integrating the accounting information systems and broader information systems research communities.

3. Affiliate with internationally focused accounting information systems research conferences/symposia across the three global regions to facilitate interaction with other information systems scholars, enhance the visibility of accounting information systems research, and support research activities.
4. Provide member services that support the development and production of high quality accounting information systems research (including but not limited to business information processing systems design and use, business process controls, information systems assurance, and information technology integration and use in professional accounting environments).
