information systems, organisation and management

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, as you give 'Accounting' as the field, but here goes anyway.

In the academic world, 'bestuurlijke informatiekunde' is the scientific study of information systems and their application in organisations. The Nuffic Glossary suggests 'information management and auditing' as one possible rendering. However, if you look at the websites of universities in English-speaking coutries, you'll find comparable programmes with names like 'information systems, organisation and management', information systems and management', 'business information systems', etc.

-> "Inhoud van het vak
Het gebruik van informatie (wat, waarom) in organisaties wordt behandeld in tegenstelling tot de techniek (hoe). Hiervoor wordt informatie in verband gebracht met de activiteiten van een organisatie. De informatievoorziening met behulp van informatiesystemen wordt nader besproken: beleid, planning, ontwerp, en de daarvoor principieel vereiste methoden en technieken."

-> "The MSc Information Systems, Organisations and Management:
- Explores new technologies, methods and frameworks, and their implications for organisations and management.
- Addresses the difficult questions about why information systems often fail to deliver. What are the social, technical and economic difficulties that can inhibit success? What are the lessons for organisations and management? What are the broader issues for society? ... This programme is designed for the leaders of the next wave of information organisations."

I found a few different translations for this: administrative IT studies, administrative information science. A quick check on the internet resulted in several hits for Information Management under Accounting.
