The bottom line

Roughly 95% of the work in Process journal entries is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: Derived from the APQC lens 'Perform general accounting and reporting' and the process description, which specifies recording transactions into ledger and trial balance accounts. This is pure information transformation and data processing work, making it highly digital.
