Previous issue date: 2004-12-20 === The purpose of this study is to describe qualitatively some of those aspects concerning Accounting Information System Management taking into consideration the necessary and constant performance improvement as well as the reduction of failures in these systems. Initially, based on specific bibliography research, it is discussed the foundations of the Accounting Information Systems and highlighted the management characteristics of such systems, standing out their significances and limitations. After that, it is suggested the usage of a methodology in order to guarantee the taken decisions of accounting professionals are encapsulated not only in financial factors - but also in technological, human and material resources. Next, a survey is carried out among the accountants to investigate their performance while managing accounting information systems. Technological resource improvement is the topical item pointed out by those professionals as responsible for the increase of demands on the usage of information generated by such systems and consequently reduction of failures in the usage of accounting information systems. Despite the fact that Failure Indicators are used to monitoring the reduction of failures, the same quantitative control is not applied to the usage of information. === O prop??sito deste estudo explorat??rio ?? descrever qualitativamente alguns aspectos da Gest??o de Sistemas de Informa????es Cont??beis considerando a necessidade de constante aumento de desempenho e de redu????o de falhas nestes sistemas. Inicialmente s??o discutidos, a partir da pesquisa bibliogr??fica, os fundamentos dos Sistemas de Informa????es Cont??beis e destacadas as caracter??sticas da Gest??o destes sistemas, ressaltando suas import??ncias e limita????es. A seguir, ?? sugerida a utiliza????o de uma metodologia para que as decis??es dos profissionais cont??beis estejam encapsuladas n??o apenas em fatores financeiros - mas tamb??m em tecnol??gicos, humanos e materiais. Posteriormente ?? realizada uma pesquisa de campo junto a Contadores para se investigar a atua????o destes profissionais na gest??o dos Sistemas de Informa????es Cont??beis. O aprimoramento dos recursos tecnol??gicos ?? o principal item apontado pelos profissionais como respons??vel pelo aumento na demanda da utiliza????o das informa????es geradas pelos sistemas e conseq??ente redu????o dos erros na utiliza????o dos Sistemas de Informa????es Cont??beis. Contudo, embora ocorra a utiliza????o de Indicadores de Falhas para monitorar a redu????o de erros, o mesmo controle quantitativo n??o ?? verificado na utiliza????o das informa????es.
