Abstract

This study investigates the impact of digital transformation on modern accounting practices among Jordanian SMEs, focusing on the moderating role of organizational culture. Digital transformation using AI, blockchain, and cloud computing improves operational efficiency, real-time financial reporting, and decision making. However, the integration of these technologies poses challenges such as skill gaps, cost constraints, and cultural resistance. A quantitative survey of 480 employees in managerial roles from Jordanian SMEs shows that organizational culture plays a dual role as a driver and moderator of digital transformation. The findings confirm the role of digital transformation in reshaping modern accounting practices. Also, this study shows that to get the most out of digital transformation in accounting, a culture of innovation and continuous learning is required.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
