AceCPA recently released a new version. This update does something quite practical: it turns AI from an "assistant module" into an operator that can actually get work done. High-frequency actions like timesheet entry, invoice processing, compliance checks, and voucher generation can now be directly taken over or preliminarily handled by AI. AceCPA is also one of the earliest products in the industry to fully implement MCP protocol Agent operation, AI voice timesheet entry, and AI compliance checks in the daily scenarios of professional firms.
1. Pioneering the AI Timesheet Era: Say One Sentence, Timesheets Fill Themselves
Timesheet entry is the most basic yet most resisted part of firm management—employees find it troublesome, project managers tire of chasing it, and data quality is uneven. The new version makes AI voice input the default entry point for timesheet entry. Employees dictate their work content, and AI identifies the project, task type, and duration, directly generating timesheet records. This is not speech-to-text; it generates structured data after understanding business semantics.
Combined with attendance location check-in, the authenticity and validity of field timesheets can be automatically verified. Leave, business trip, and overtime data can also be automatically converted into timesheet entries, so employees don't need to re-enter data across multiple systems.
Timesheet management moves from "manual entry + post-hoc verification" into the AI timesheet era—entry is done by AI, and people only need to confirm.
2. Pioneering the AI Project Management Era: MCP Protocol Agent Directly Operates the System
The most noteworthy part of this update is AceCPA's support for the MCP protocol. AI Agents are no longer just for chatting—they can directly perform operations such as queries, data entry, and approvals within the system.
Actions like project initiation, task assignment, progress tracking, compliance checks, and audit responses can be preliminarily handled by the AI assistant. Project managers no longer need to review the compliance of working papers one by one; the system will flag the issues.
AceCPA thus becomes one of the earliest firm management systems in the industry to support MCP protocol Agent operation—AI is not just an assistant, but an operator that can enter the execution layer of project workflows. Project management moves from "people operating systems" to "people directing Agents to operate systems."
3. Invoice Recognition and Verification: Reimbursement Efficiency Up 70%
The invoice module has also been upgraded. After taking a photo or uploading an invoice, the system automatically performs OCR to recognize key fields such as invoice code, number, date, amount, seller, and buyer, while connecting to the State Taxation Administration invoice verification platform to complete authenticity verification.
Invoices that pass verification are automatically linked to the corresponding expense reimbursement form and compared with the project budget in real time. Finance no longer needs to manually enter invoice information, and business staff no longer need to worry about attaching the wrong invoice or filing the wrong account.
4. Automatic Financial Voucher Generation: Integrated with Kingdee, Yonyou, and SAP
Project cost data can automatically generate accounts receivable and payable financial vouchers, which are pushed to financial systems such as Kingdee, Yonyou, and SAP through standard interfaces, supporting multiple accounting standards and multiple account sets.
The finance department no longer needs to manually enter vouchers for project labor costs, expense reimbursements, and revenue recognition. According to official statements, this can reduce financial workload by more than 50%. This is part of the system's automation capability, solving the efficiency problem of connecting "data to vouchers."
5. AI Compliance Checks and Audit Responses
AceCPA's AI assistant can automatically complete compliance checks and audit responses to meet firm compliance requirements. Compliance work is highly dependent on manual review; AI performs a first round of screening, and people make the final judgment—this is currently a more readily accepted way of collaborating with AI in firm scenarios.
6. E-Seal and Report Management: Tamper-Proof and Traceable Throughout
The process of online report preparation, multi-level review, electronic sealing, and filing/archiving has been further connected. The e-seal integrates a government-recognized electronic seal system and supports CA digital certificates and timestamp services. Sealed reports have legal effect and are tamper-proof and traceable throughout the entire process.
7. HQ-Branch Integration: Data Aggregation Shortened from Months to Days
For large firms with multiple branches, the new version continues to strengthen HQ-branch integrated management. Each branch accounts independently and has independent performance, while headquarters aggregates revenue, cost, and profit data in real time. Some customers report that the HQ-branch data aggregation cycle has been shortened from monthly to daily.
8. Ecosystem Integration: Seamless Connection with DingTalk, WeCom, Feishu, OA, and HR Systems
The new version continues to expand ecosystem integration capabilities. Basic capabilities such as organizational structure synchronization, SSO single sign-on, approval message push, and attendance data linkage already cover mainstream platforms including DingTalk, WeCom, and Feishu. Integration with the approval processes of OA systems such as Weaver and Seeyon has also been completed, so processes like project initiation, milestone changes, and three-level review can be pushed directly to OA to-dos.
9. Already Serving Leading Institutions Such as Pan-China, Zhonghua, and Mazars
AceCPA is positioned as an integrated firm management system for professional institutions such as accounting firms, tax firms, valuation firms, and cost consulting firms, covering the full process of clients, projects, scheduling, timesheets, invoice reimbursement, costs, contracts, report sealing, and performance. It currently serves a number of leading institutions, including Pan-China, Zhonghua, and Mazars.
The new version supports online self-service trial activation starting today (https://www.aceteamwork.com/products/acecpa) and multi-role permissions can be configured directly. There is no need for repeated offline coordination or a round of complex requirement discussions first—firms that want to try it out can start using it right after registration.
