Background
In this modern era, many companies are using increasingly advanced technology according to the development of this era. Where the company is one of the parties who need and keep up with the times. Along with the size of the company, with a manual system, the company will find it difficult to implement the company's performance, then the decision of the manager is able to determine whether the company will use more sophisticated methods and use the latest technology for the company or not. This sophisticated technology will help the company and employees a lot to make their performance more efficient and effective in implementing it.

Theory Of Reasoned Action (TRA)
Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) is a deviation from previous studies which were originally from the theory of attitudes and behavior (Jogiyanto, 2007). This theory is a theory related to the attitudes and behavior of individuals in carrying out activities. TRA developed by subsequent studies resulted in a theory regarding the use of information systems. This theory is a technology acceptance model which is abbreviated as TAM (Technology Acceptance Model).
This model is a model of acceptance of information technology systems that will be used by users. The purpose of the TAM model is to be able to explain the main factors of the behavior of information technology users on the acceptance of the use of information systems. This model is expected to illustrate that the use of information systems will be influenced by the usability variable and the ease of use variable. Where this variable has a high determinant and validity which has been empirically tested by subsequent studies such as research by (Davis, 2018).

Behavioral Research Theory
In this field, it explains how users of accounting information make decisions and what information they need (Icek, 1991). Most of the research in this field uses research laboratories by conducting experiments. In this study, the researchers made Behavioral Research Theory as the main theory due to the use of accounting information systems in the income cycle, expenditure cycle, and human resource cycle applied by the company, used to improve accounting information used for company decision making in managing inventory management with information. generated from the accounting information system.

It is said to be temporary because the new answer is based on relevant theory, not based on empirical facts obtained from data collection (Sugiyono, 2016).
Explanation Based on what was stated above, the hypotheses of this research are as follows: H1 : Accounting information systems and internal control systems affect the quality of fnancial reports H2 : Accounting information system affects the quality of financial statements H3 : Internal control system effect on the quality of financial statements

The accounting information system
The internal control The quality of financial reports

Population and Sample
The population in this study were employees of PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk. The sample in this study were all employees of the accounting and finance division at PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk, totaling 60 respondents. The sampling technique in this study is nonprobability sampling, namely the saturated sample. Researchers collect data by distributing questionnaires to a predetermined population. After collecting data, then determining the measurement tools used to obtain data from the elements to be investigated. In this study, the measurement tool in question is a list of statements or questionnaires. Each item of the questionnaire is a positive statement given a score of 1 to 5 that the author has provided.

Research Variables and Operational Definitions of Variables
The research variable is an attribute or nature or value of a person, object, or activity that has a certain variation determined by the researcher to be studied and then drawn conclusions (Sugiyono, 2016 (Erlina, 2013)

Validity Test Result
A validity test is a measure that shows the extent to which the measurement instrument is able to measure what it wants to measure. The indicator is said to be valid if the Pearson correlation is more than 0.2564. Based on the results of data processing of accounting information system variables (X1), internal control system (X2), quality of financial reports (Y) indicates that all Pearson Correlations have a value greater than rtable (0.2564), meaning that all questions are valid. All of these questions can be used as a valid measuring tool in the next analysis.

Reliability Test Result
Reliability is a measure that shows consistency in measuring instruments in measuring the same symptoms on other occasions. Where the questionnaire is said to be reliable if the Cronbach Alpha value is greater than > 0.60 while if the Cronbach Alpha value (α) < 0.60 then the indicator used by the variable it is not reliable. The results of the reliability test are as follows:  -ISSN: 2746-4032 Vol. 2, No. 3, August 2021 Based on table 2 above, all of the Cronbach Alpha values exceed the Alpha values. Because the value of all Cronbach Alpha is greater at 0.60, it can be concluded that all instruments are declared reliable.

The F test is said to be influential if the Fcount value is greater than Ftable > 3.15 while if the Fcount value is less than Ftable < 3.15 then the F test is said to have no effect. Based on table 3. above, it can be explained that the value of Fcount 26.494 > Ftable 3.15, then H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted. This shows that there is a positive and significant influence between the variables of the accounting information system and internal control system on the quality of the financial statements of PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk.

t Test
The t-test (Partial) aims to determine whether the influence of individual/partial accounting information systems and internal control systems on the quality of financial reports. The results can be seen in the following The t-test is said to be influential if the tcount value is greater than ttable> 1.67065, while if the tcount value is less than ttable <1.67065, the t-test is said to have no effect. Based on table 4 above, it can be explained that each variable influence of the accounting information system and internal control system individually/partially on the quality of financial reports is as follows: 1. The influence of the accounting information system variable (X1) individually/partially on the quality of financial reports. Based on table 4.13 above, it can be seen that tcount for the accounting information system variable (X1) is = 2.724 on the quality of financial reports (Y) this means tcount 2.724 > ttable 1.67065 with a significance of 0.007 <0.05 then H0 is rejected and H2 is accepted. It means that there is a positive and significant effect of the accounting information system (X1) on the quality of financial reports (Y).
2. The influence of the internal control system variable (X2) individually/partially on the quality of financial reports. Based on table 4.13 above, it can be seen that tcount for the internal control system variable (X2) is = 6.477 on the quality of financial reports (Y) this means tcount 6,477 > t table 1.67065 then H0 is rejected and H3 is accepted. It means that there is a positive and significant influence of the internal control system (X2) on the quality of financial reports (Y).

Discussion
Based on the results of the F (simultaneous) test, it can be seen that the calculated F value is 26,494 > Ftable 3.15, with a significance of 0.000 <0.05, then H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted. This shows that there is a positive and significant influence between the variables of the accounting information system and internal control system on the quality of the financial statements of PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk.

The purpose of the TAM model is to be able to explain the main factors of the behavior of information technology users on the acceptance of the use of information systems. This model is expected to illustrate that the use of information systems will be influenced by the usability variable and the ease of use variable.
If the accounting information system has been used and utilized by PT Semen Baturaja (Persero) Tbk effectively, it will make it easier and faster to obtain and process the data needed so that employees can carry out their duties on target in accordance with the SOPs applied in the company, where SOPs are one of the a form of accounting information system so that financial reports can be of effective quality.
