Abstract

Today, robot technology has caused changes in the industry and business environment. Robot Process Automation (RPA), created by Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), is software that can imitate human activities with the help of computers. The study aims to contribute to the existing gaps in the literature about technological developments in accounting information systems by examining the current situation of RPA in terms of accounting information systems (AIS). Robots in RPA technology fall into three main categories. Probots are data manipulation by following iterative and straightforward rules. Knowbots provide internet access to collect and store user-specific information. Chatbots are virtual agents that can respond to needs simultaneously. RPA is a robot software; it is an automation technology that organizes the automation by virtualizing the workforce in MBS through robots or bots and eliminating errors with the crew it creates. Since this technology covers all processes in the business in detail, it can contribute to the audit function and help the MBS be transparent and auditable. In this respect, RPA contributes to ensuring corporate sustainability by healthily reporting financial transactions.

MUHASEBE BİLGİ SİSTEMİNDE ROBOTİK SÜREÇ OTOMASYONU

Abstract

Günümüzde robot teknolojisinin kullanımı, endüstri ve iş ortamında değişimlere neden olmuştur. Kurumsal Kaynak Planlamasının (ERP), ortaya çıkardığı Robot Süreç Otomasyonu (RPA), bilgisayarların yardımıyla insan faaliyetlerini taklit edebilen bir yazılımdır. Çalışmanın amacı muhasebe bilgi sistemi (MBS) açısından RPA’nın mevcut durumunu inceleyerek Muhasebe bilgi sistemlerindeki teknolojik gelişmelerle ilgili literatürdeki mevcut boşluklara katkıda bulunmaktır. RPA teknolojisindeki robotlar üç ana kategoriye ayrılır. Probotlar, basit ve yinelemeli kuralları izleyerek veri işlemedir. Knowbot'lar, kullanıcıya özel bilgilerin toplanması ve depolanması için internet erişimini sağlamaktadır. Chatbotlar ihtiyaçlara eş zamanlı olarak yanıt verebilen sanal aracılardır. RPA bir robot yazılımı olup robotlar veya botlar aracılığıyla MBS’de yer alan işgücünü sanallaştırarak otomatikleştirmeyi organize eden, oluşturduğu işgücüyle hataların ortadan kaldırılmasını sağlayan bir otomasyon teknolojisidir. Bu teknoloji işletmedeki tüm süreçlerin ayrıntılı bir biçimde ele aldığı için denetim işlevine katlıda bulunabilmekte ve MBS’nin şeffaf ve denetlenebilir olmasına yardımcı olmaktadır. RPA bu yönüyle finansal işlemlerin sağlıklı bir biçimde raporlayarak kurumsal sürdürülebilirliğin sağlanmasına katkıda bulunmaktadır.
