which is positive in context of acquiring the authenticated information as well as making proper
execution of corporate social responsibility.

transactions on the devices as well as on their auditing (Flower, 2015). It has brought drastic

operational activities held in premises. It helps in making proper comparison of such accounts
and organisational growth in context with previous records. Integrated method consists of global
reporting initiative which helps in providing the guidelines for environmental sustainability.

made or implemented. Thus, such reporting helps the professionals in analysing fruitful concept
of making cost control, sustainability as well as positive environmental actions.

prompt as compared to traditional or non-financial methods of preparing such reports. Thus,
preparation of traditional reports will be very much time consuming as well as includes various
errors. In such facilitated documents there will be existence of unauthenticated informations
which will mislead stakeholders in making an effective decision. There will be a threat of having
the unauthenticated data. (Freeman and et.al., 2014). Thus, integrated reporting will be made
with the use of software and devices to calculate such transaction so it will be fruitful in
