Can a qualified engineer adapt to accounting?

Vice versa, can a qualified accountant adapt to engineering?

I have done my ACCA and no intention to discredit the profession

all engineering  > ACCA

Accounting knowledge, standards are set by human being

Engineering somehow need to understand how the universe works eg: what happen if one chemical mix with another chemical

In engineering wrong means wrong, building will collapse, product will fail while accounts wrong can u turn pusing pusing

i agree with you.

i am an engineering GM and i employ accountants. I can do some of their work. Understand the fundamentals of accounting and financials.
But they have no way of understanding fundamental engineering principles.

Don't discredit them for we did not sit & do their job full time, we just have that view we understand the fundamental then we assume its easy and we can do it.
If it's easy why don't we do it ourselves right?

It is not discrediting them. That is not the intent. They have their expertise areas.
i am just pointing out the adaptibility of either profession to each other's expertise.
And i am in a position to share this a engineering GM in my company.
