AICPA + Python = Awesome

AICPA has taken a great step toward exploring open source and Python in the world of audit. I helped the Audit Data Analytics working group record a video on how Python can improve the audit process, and it's up on their Audit Data Standards website!

The video quickly walks through how you could use Python to import a trial balance and general ledger, do some basic validations, and then perform some journal entry analyses.

The video is posted here - it's the second video on the page.

I also helped write up a document that goes with the video.

The github repo is here. It's still in need of some work, so any contributions would be greatly appreciated!

Good job AICPA!
