Abstract: This study aimed at examining the impact of the ERP system on the quality of internal auditing in the Jordanian commercial banks. For this purpose, the researchers designed a questionnaire that was distributed to specialists in the same field of this research. The questionnaire consisted of eight perspectives. The study¡¯s sample included 21 Jordanian banks, while the study¡¯s sample consisted of thirteen Jordanian commercial banks. The results discovered a statistical and significant impact on the application of the organization's resource planning system, especially in the field of finance, marketing, sales, management, human resources as well as the services¡¯ system. Based on these results, the researchers raised up a set of recommendations, which are including the necessity of developing the capabilities of the internal auditors in the use of the organization's ERP system in general, and enhancing the accounting system to increase the confidence and the quality of the financial reports particularly. Additionally, it is necessary to explain for the internal auditors the risks, which are embedded in the system of information technology.
