The sample consisted of 30 representatives from accounting firms located in Mueang Khon Kaen District Khon Kaen Province, selected through purposive sampling. The data collected from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including percentage, mean and standard deviation. The findings revealed that the overall demand for accounting professional characteristics among accounting firms was at the highest level. Among the required professional characteristics, accounting professional ethics received the highest mean score (x̄ = 4.71, S.D. = 0.50), followed by analytical and problem-solving skills (x̄ = 4.49, S.D. = 0.55), information technology competency (x̄ = 4.36, S.D. = 0.59), accounting professional knowledge (x̄ = 4.32, S.D. = 0.63), accounting professional skills (x̄ = 4.22, S.D. = 0.61) and English language proficiency (x̄ = 3.38, S.D. = 0.83). Regarding the demand for information technology competency as an accounting professional characteristic, the overall level of demand was at the highest level (x̄ = 4.59, S.D. = 0.60). When each aspect was considered individually, ranked from the highest to the lowest mean score, the most highly demanded competency was the ability to use computers to prepare accounting information for both internal and external users of the organization (x̄ = 4.47, S.D. = 0.57). This was followed by the ability to utilize information systems for the preparation of financial statements and value-added tax (VAT) reports submitted to financial statement users and the Revenue Department (x̄ = 4.37, S.D. = 0.56), the ability to apply technology in the preparation of accounting information (x̄ = 4.33, S.D. = 0.61), and the ability to use information systems to prepare cost analysis reports and budget reports (x̄ = 4.27, S.D. = 0.64), respectively.</p>2026-07-12T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2026 Chophayom Journalhttps://so01.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/ejChophayom/article/view/287105Factors and Collaboration Affecting the Effectiveness of Using Computerized Accounting Systems (New e-LAAS) for Sustainable Development: A Case Study of Sub-district Administrative Organizations and Sub-district Municipalities in Mueang Khon Kaen District Khon Kaen Province2026-04-19T21:42:49+07:00Jitlada Yuenyangjihada29@icloud.com<p>The purpose of the research was 1. to evaluate the efficiency of the New Electronic Local Administrative Accounting System (New e-LAAS) utilized by Sub-district Administrative Organizations (SAOs) in Manchakiri District Khon Kaen Province and 2. to compare the efficiency of the New Electronic Local Administrative Accounting System (New e-LAAS) based on the personal characteristics of its users within the Sub-district Administrative Organizations in Manchakiri District Khon Kaen Province. This study employed a quantitative research design. The research instrument was a structured questionnaire. The sample consisted of 37 personnel responsible for operating the New Electronic Local Administrative Accounting System (New e-LAAS) in the Sub-district Administrative Organizations of Manchakiri District Khon Kaen Province. The participants were selected using purposive sampling. The data collected through the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including the calculation of the mean and standard deviation. The findings revealed that 1) Evaluation of the efficiency of the New Electronic Local Administrative Accounting System (New e-LAAS) used by Sub-district Administrative Organizations (SAOs) in Manchakiri District Khon Kaen Province indicated that the overall efficiency was rated at a high level across all dimensions. Specifically, the highest mean score was found for the New e-LAAS software system (x̄ = 4.17, S.D. = 0.79), followed by confidence in the system (x̄ = 4.05, S.D. = 0.73) and government support (x̄ = 3.80, S.D. = 0.82), all of which were evaluated at a high level and 2) Comparison of the efficiency of the New Electronic Local Administrative Accounting System (New e-LAAS) according to users personal characteristics revealed that a comparison based on gender could not be performed because all 37 respondents (100%) were female, with no male participants included in the sample. Consequently, no conclusions regarding gender differences in the evaluation results could be drawn from this dataset. Furthermore, the findings indicated that users with different personal characteristics exhibited statistically significant differences in certain dimensions of the quality of the New e-LAAS. These differences were reflected in users' evaluations of system utilization and varied according to their job positions, indicating that personnel holding different positions perceived the effectiveness of the system differently.</p>2026-07-18T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2026 Chophayom Journal
