If we built that software, how far would we be from not needing accountants?

  Collecting the data can be automated. Classifying it, not so. I.e. what is a business expense, what is not, etc., all require knowledge that is not reasonably available to the computer until a human classifies it. For example, I fill up at a gas station. Is that for a business purpose, or not? The computer cannot know. An awful lot of such decisions need to be made.
