Arkansas Code § 19-2-501 - Purpose

The State of Arkansas and its political subdivisions have the responsibility to properly account for all financial transactions.

The State of Arkansas and its political subdivisions recognize that through the use of computers and electronic data, banking and the flow of information are continuing to change. With this change, it is important that the State of Arkansas and its political subdivisions continue to receive evidentiary information concerning financial transactions. The purpose of this subchapter is to permit public entities to accept photographic copies or digital images of financial transactions and to require financial institutions to furnish the needed documentation in a readable, meaningful, permanent format.
