More and more clients and accountants send and receive data
using the Web. Some accounting programs provide built-in Internet
access, and accounting firms use client write-up programs to send
and receive financial information to and from clients, banks and
government agencies. "I believe the Internet and programs that
utilize the latest technology are going to dramatically change the
way accountants deliver service to small businesses," says
Myron Joy, a CPA who operates Joy & Associates CPAs, PC, in
Phoenix. "Using Internet connections, businesses will send
financial information from their accounting programs to their
accountants' offices for completion of traditional accounting
functions. Then the accountants will arrange tax deposits and
payments and download bank account information-all online. The
completed financial reports and accounting data will be sent to the
client via the Internet to his Web site or e-mail address. The
efficiency of this type of delivery system will lower the
clients' overall costs. Joy & Associates has developed
ClientLink Write-Up, a program that gives the accountant the
features to implement such a service." Other developers of
write-up programs for accountants include Creative Solutions
