Function of Flow Sheets
• Flow sheets illustrate the flow of activities that
capture information.

3. Flow Sheets are Useful Because
• They picture who is responsible for what piece
of information as it enters the system

information flows in the chapter
Figure 2-2: Flowsheets
Figure 2-3: Flowsheets
The Chart of Accounts
• Outlines the elements of your company in an

The Chart of Accounts
• Every organization has differences in its Chart
