Background of the Study
Accounting Information Systems (AIS) can play a significant role in strengthening local government budgets by improving transparency, reducing errors, and enhancing efficiency. However, many local governments face challenges in implementing these systems effectively. This study will explore the challenges and prospects of AIS in local government budgeting.
