disagree  Takashi Koga: I believe this is actually describing the processes to be evaluated for internal controls, and has nothing to do with "creating" an account.

Sorry. This part was left out of the example: やる価値がある。

Example sentence(s):
  • 社内の改善に至るプロセスはややこしいけど、yaruです。
  • The process leading to internal improvements is complex, but it is worth it.

Notes to answerer
Asker: What does "process leading to account items" mean?


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Takashi Koga: "leading to" is correct, but the essence of the meaning is that these are business processes which "affect" the account (i.e. actually "reach" the final desination - the ledger).
