Accounting automation and especially robotic process automation (RPA) has received notable attention from researchers in the past few years. This technology is known as the use of software bots to perform rule-based tasks, which are normally performed by people, such as bookkeeping. Drawing on the theory of reasoned action (TRA) and changing management, the present paper investigates the accounting practitioners’ behavior toward bookkeeping automation through RPA and the extent to which the work experience is a factor that influences this change. Data is collected through experimental cases, having accounting practitioners from Romania as participants. Results show that employees in the accounting sector are more open to automation in comparison to manually working, but the work experience is not an influential factor. Some of the explanations could be related to the respondents’ age and the companies where participants perform their activities. The originality of the study comes from the method used which is rarely used at the level of accounting research, although it could provide objective findings and leaves no room for interpretation. Findings could be of interest to practice as it shows that accounting practitioners are not an obstacle to automation, instead, they are willing to embrace the digitalization changes.
