For every Chartered Accountant, managing Article Assistants is about more than assigning work—it's about ensuring proper training, maintaining attendance records, documenting work experience, and meeting ICAI compliance requirements.
With ICAI introducing mandatory E-Diary requirements for Articleship commencing on or after 1st January 2026, firms can no longer depend on manual attendance registers, spreadsheets, or last-minute record updates. As Articleship management becomes more structured, firms need a reliable system that captures every activity accurately and transparently.
Now imagine a firm managing hundreds of clients. If staff spend even a few minutes creating recurring tasks for each client every month, hundreds of productive hours are lost every year on work that could have been automated.
ATOM's Articleship Management Module helps firms seamlessly manage attendance, daily work activities, and training records while supporting synchronization with the ICAI E-Diary ecosystem.
