The role of accountants in business has changed and transformed into a computerised accounting system. This study hopes to reach the following research objectives such as explore the impact of digital transformation on accountants’ work and professional life, identify the needs and priorities of the accountants in the digitalisation era, identify challenges and opportunities associated with digital transformation for accountants, and determine the potential outcomes of providing access to digital tools and resources, training and support, and recognition for the accountants' work in the digitalisation era and identify the potential risks associated with providing access to digital tools and resources, training and support, and recognition for the accountants' work in the digitalisation era. This study will use a questionnaire survey method. The questionnaire will be designed based on the needs and priorities identified by the accountants in the digitalisation era. The questionnaire consisted of a series of questionnaires designed to gather data on different aspects of accountants' work in the digitalisation era. The questionnaire will be distributed to the accountants using email. The research outcomes will be analysed using the most recent version of SPSS.
