This Community Service Partner (PKM) is a small micro business of Brick. Knowledge about inventory management in the Brick business is still a fundamental weakness in meeting market demand, so that the price of Brick is relatively determined by the market. The purpose of this service is to motivate Brick business owners to have the knowledge and skills to be able to carry out proper inventory management as a support in developing their business. The method of implementation uses a combination of lecture and practice. Participants consist of Brick business owners in Bajeng District, Gowa Regency. The technique of implementing the activity consists of three stages starting from the preparation stage, the implementation stage, and the activity evaluation stage. The results of the training show that Brick business owners have difficulty managing the inventory of their business due to limited business capital. The finances used in business are still combined with finance for household needs. After the simulation is carried out, the participants can understand inventory management in the business. Furthermore, Brick business owners can know inventory management properly. Knowledge about inventory management is emphasized on Brick business owners because the productive life of Brick is only 5 months in one year, so inventory can be a strategy to increase operating profits. The limitation in this training is that the implementation method has not used mentoring techniques, so that knowledge about inventory management can be implemented in business activities.

Malahayu Reservoir is located in Malahayu Village, Banjarharjo District, Brebes Regency. Malahayu Reservoir was built in 1935. Malahayu Reservoir is planned to have a water storage capacity of 69 million m³ with a water surface area of 9.25 km². The main purpose of the construction of this reservoir is to supply irrigation water with a total area of 12,674 Ha, consisting of DI Kabuyutan of 4,166 Ha, DI Jengkelok of 6,173 Ha, and DI Babakan of 2,335 Ha. However, the water supply in Malahayu Reservoir continues to decrease, allegedly due to the high amount of sediment. The current problem is the occurrence of sediment in the Malahayu Reservoir. The pattern of operation using this reservoir needs to be studied because it is considered less optimal and because there needs to be a review of the use of reservoir water using newer data. That way, an operating pattern is needed to determine the reliability of reservoirs in their use as irrigation water providers. This study began by analyzing the secondary data obtained. Data is processed to obtain the amount of reservoir discharge and water needs for irrigation water. And the study ended with a simulation of the reservoir operation pattern. From the results of this study, it is expected to help provide solutions for the operation pattern of Malahayu Reservoir as an optimal reservoir. To improve the performance of the Malahayu Reservoir, supporting data such as reservoir operational systems and performance, hydrological data, reservoir operating procedures and patterns, and irrigation data are needed. The results of the analysis showed that the operation of the Malahayu Reservoir was less than optimal. Simulation of reservoir operation shows that the volume of water in Malahayu Reservoir is below the Minimum Operating Level (MOL), which is the minimum volume of water that should be in the reservoir. According to the records of the Cimanuk-Cisanggarung River Basin Center (BBWS), the condition of water supply in the Malahayu Reservoir continues to decline since this reservoir was built during the Dutch colonial rule until now.

The giveaway activity is a marketing activity carried out by a brand with the aim of attracting market attention, and introducing the brand more broadly to potential customers. By distributing prizes to selected customers. In this activity, several problems emerged, namely the Sukabumi Boutique Store admin felt that it was not objective because the process of determining the winner of the giveaway was only through the picker application on the cellphone, so that the giveaway winners who appeared did not pay attention to certain criteria and requirements. Determination through the picker application is only done by drawing a lot by looking at the name that appears first. Selection like this is considered unfair for customers who already feel they meet all the criteria and requirements but do not win the giveaway. In the implementation of the simulation of determining the winner of the giveaway, a method is needed that can solve these problems. The weighted product method is a ranking method where decisions are made by multiplying to connect attribute ratings. This process begins with inputting alternative data, then continues with the process of inputting several criteria that have been selected, namely, number of transactions, quantity of shopping, total visits, resellers. This selection process will determine the giveaway winner in a more targeted and more objective manner by taking into account certain criteria and requirements.   Keywords: Giveaway, Weighted Product, Boutique Sukabumi, Picker App

Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are one of the drivers of the Indonesian economy. MSMEs have made a significant contribution to improving the economy and also play an important role in growth and employment in Indonesia. Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the Manyaran Village, West Semarang District, are experiencing growth in quantity. Different things are shown by MSMEs which consistently make financial reports, especially micro and small businesses. The problem that arises is that not all MSMEs routinely report MSME performance (operational and financial) so that the financial condition cannot be known early by MSME owners. The dedication method uses lectures, discussions, simulations and questions and answers regarding the benefits and uses of preparing reports. The results of the dedication show that different business units in MSMEs and the educational background of their owners require different ways of communication and delivery. The advice given is to increase the participation of Semarang City Government officials (relevant agencies) through Youth Organizations (youth groups) can be increased again. The results of the dedication show that action is still needed to convince MSMEs regarding the importance of financial reports. Some participants could understand and were enthusiastic in participating in the training. In the future, training and introduction to financial applications related to MSMEs are needed, such as shop books, SIPIK or other applications.
