Hello everyone!
I am currently studying accounting as an undergrad, but I want to pursue a career doing AIS (Accounting Information System). What coding language do I need to learn before I get into the AIS field? Any advice on the matter would be appreciated!!

An AIS must have a database structure to store information, such as structured query language (SQL), which is a computer language commonly used for databases. SQL allows the data that's in the AIS to be manipulated and retrieved for reporting purposes. The AIS will also need various input screens for the different types of system users and data entry, as well as different output formats to meet the needs of different users and various types of information.

The data contained in an AIS is all of the financial information pertinent to the organization's business practices. Any business data that impacts the company's finances should go into an AIS.
