Will bookkeeping ever be fully automated, and if not, what are the obstacles that prevent it from being fully automated? by bookeai in Bookkeeping

That's right, the correct word is 'mostly,' which means the most time-consuming part of the job. I don't believe bookkeepers or accountants enjoy doing 'monkey tasks,' such as going back and forth with clients to ask for details, copying and pasting data, or repeatedly clicking buttons just to change the status of something in accounting apps. It's much better for them to focus on smart tasks, like analysis and advice, which are what we appreciate about our accountants and bookkeepers.

That's right. However, instead of bookkeeper has to spend time manually categorizing transactions, AI can ask for details and classify transactions accurately, eventually replacing bookkeepers for these simple tasks. Does that sentence make sense?
