<p>The study aims to demonstrate the conceptual and practical framework of digital transformation and its impact on accounting information systems by focusing on the requirements of digital transformation, such as the digital strategy, the necessary knowledge of the human element, and the effects and obstacles facing the digitization of accounting information systems. The study attempts to answer the following question: What is the impact of digital transformation on accounting information systems in business organisations?
