I saw your ad on craigslist and I have a Flow Chart assignment due 3/25/2018 for my Accounting Information System course. This is my 3rd time taking this course so it is extremely critical for me since I have 3 more courses left to get the Bachelors and every time I assign someone for this assignment they basically mess me over and I get 0/100. Please read the following very care fully.
Please read all attached files because it has to be a specific way. I also provided a previous narrative and it's solution so you can see how my Prof exactly wants it. The assignment itself is the attachment called Flow Chart 1 Assignment Narrative. Also in the assignment, a statement highlighted in yellow saying "Flow chart styles can vary, complete the assignment using the styles provided in class" which is why i attached the flowchart process slides for your convenience.
DOCUMENTATION PROBLEM SysDoc Practice1 Customer Orders NARRATIVE The salesperson receives a hardcopy customer order from the customer. The salesperson enters the customer order into the salesperson’s mobile device using the Sales Order Program which retrieves information from the Customer Master file, enters data into the Sales Order Transaction file, and updates the information in the Customer Master file. The salesperson forwards the hardcopy of the customer order to the sales manager. The sales manager receives the hardcopy of the customer order from the salesperson. The sales manager views the salesperson’s order entered into the Sales Order Program by retrieving data from the Customer Master File and the Sales Order Transaction file. The sales manager then manually compares the hardcopy of the customer order with the sales order on the computer screen and approves the hardcopy with a signature. The sales manager then files the signed hardcopy in the Approved Customer Orders file cabinet by customer number. The sales manager prints a picking ticket for each sales order by using the Sales Order Program and retrieving information from the Sales Order Transaction file. The sales manager sends the picking ticket to the warehouse clerk. The warehouse clerk receives the picking ticket from the sales manager. The warehouse clerk manually gathers the items listed on the picking ticket (NOTE: use the input/output parallelogram symbol to represent the items). The warehouse clerk enters the items picked into a mobile device using the Order Processing Program which retrieves information from the Customer Master file and the Sales Order Transaction file and enters data into the Orders Processed Transaction file. The warehouse clerk brings the picking ticket and items to the shipping clerk. The shipping clerk receives the picking ticket and items from the warehouse clerk. The shipping clerk enters the items received into a mobile device using the Shipping Program which retrieves information from the Customer Master file and the Sales Order Transaction file and enters data into the Shipments Transaction file. The shipping clerk files the picking ticket in the Completed Picking Tickets file by date. The shipping clerk prints a packing slip using the Shipping Program which retrieves data from the Customer Master file, Sales Order Transaction file, and Shipments Transaction file. The shipping clerk sends the packing slip and items to the customer. Instructions: Create one file in Excel with two worksheets (use a new, blank file). Name the first worksheet “Table” and create a Table of Entities and Activities. Name the second worksheet “Flowchart” and create a Document Flowchart. Upload your completed assignment to Blackboard before the deadline. CAUTION: Flowchart styles can vary. Complete this assignment using the styles provided in class for this semester.

Accountants must be able to read documentation and understand how a system works (e.g., auditors need to assess risk) Sarbanes–Oxley Act (SOX) requires management to assess internal controls and auditors to evaluate the assessment Used for systems development and changes Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› 3 Data Flow Diagrams (DFD) Focuses on the data flows for: Processes Sources and destinations of the data Data stores DFD are visually simple and can be used to represent the same process at a high abstract (summary) or detailed level.

Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› 5 Basic Guidelines for Creating a DFD Understand the system that you are trying to represent. A DFD is a simple representation meaning that you need to consider what is relevant and what needs to be included. Start with a high level (context diagram) to show how data flows between outside entities and inside the system. Use additional DFD’s at the detailed level to show how data flows within the system. Identify and group all the basic elements of the DFD. Name data elements with descriptive names, use action verbs for processes (e.g., update, edit, prepare, validate, etc.). Give each process a sequential number to help the reader navigate from the abstract to the detailed levels. Edit/Review/Refine your DFD to make it easy to read and understand.

Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› Types of Flowcharts Document: shows the flow of documents and data for a process, useful in evaluating internal controls System: depicts the data processing cycle for a process Program: illustrates the sequence of logic in the system process Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› Guidelines for Drawing Flowcharts Understand the system you are trying to represent. Identify business processes, documents, data flows, and data processing procedures. Organize the flowchart so as it reads from top to bottom and left to right. Clearly label all symbols. Use page connectors (if it cannot fit on a single page). Edit/Review/Refine to make it easy to read and understand. Copyright © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Chapter 3: Systems Documentation Techniques Slide 1 - ‹#› Business Process Diagrams Is a visual way to represent the activities in a business process. Intent is that all business users can easily understand the process from a standard notation (BPMN: Business Process Modeling Notation). Can show the organizational unit performing the activity.

Decide the level of detail (summary or detailed DFD). Organize diagram using as many rows needed to explain the process. Enter each business process on the diagram showing where it begins and ends.
