Hi! Shyam,

I have also just started with audit work but as far as I feel u should have the basic knowledge of information system to understand the client's system very well knowledge of other accounting packages is an added advantage.

Hey,

What kind of work are you doing?

The reason I posted this is because I find no use of having lot of knowledge of Tally as such but knowledge of Excel is of paramount importance (use in sampling). Also I have found that persons using the system at the Client office also lack the knowlege of using it properly (say only 1/2 persons know the complete use and they guard this knowledge like some treasure and don't want to share it!)...... what does one do in this situation?
