A data entry accountant is a professional who is responsible for inputting financial and accounting information into computer systems or spreadsheets. They typically work in accounting firms, financial institutions, or large corporations.

The primary responsibility of a data entry accountant is to accurately and efficiently enter financial data into various software programs, databases, and spreadsheets. This data may include invoices, receipts, transactions, payroll information, and other financial records.

In addition to data entry, a data entry accountant may also be responsible for performing basic accounting tasks such as reconciling bank statements, verifying financial reports, and preparing financial statements. They may also assist in preparing tax returns and audits.
