Digitisation in recent years has led to massive changes in the way certain activities are carried out in various fields. This paper aims to analyse the field of finance and accounting, capturing how the activities of accounting professionals are changing as a result of the evolving phenomenon of digitisation. At the same time, it was also studied how the implementation of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems provides functions that allow more efficient and accurate processing of data, and reports needed by managers can be generated more easily. The research method used in this paper was based on a quantitative analysis, specifically a bibliometric analysis, with the aim of illustrating the main skills that accounting professionals should develop in the future as a result of the digitisation phenomenon in recent times. The research aims to follow the importance of developing technical skills, critical thinking skills, and adaptability to navigate the complexities of ERP systems effectively. As a result of the evolution of digitisation and the increasing implementation of ERP systems in finance and accounting companies, the results of the study indicated that accounting professionals should possess a range of skills including proficiency in data analysis, system implementation, and financial reporting within ERP systems. The paper adds value to the literature, providing accountancy professionals with a range of useful insights into how the profession will change as a result of digital transformation.
