Biometric features that can be used for identification include iris, voice, DNA and fingerprints. Fingerprints are the most widely used biometric feature because of their uniqueness, universality and stability. Fingerprint recognition can be grouped into two different forms of problems, namely verification and identification. Verification is comparing one fingerprint with another fingerprint. Meanwhile, identification is matching an input fingerprint with fingerprint data in the database. Thus, identification can be interpreted as an extension of verification carried out by comparing one fingerprint to many fingerprints. Identification is inherently more complex than verification. The problem increases as the number of fingerprint datasets increases, resulting in an increase in the time required for the identification process. However, there is a way to overcome this complexity, namely classification. Apart from that, evolutionary algorithm optimization can also be carried out. The Chromosome Algorithm is an improvement on the evolutionary algorithm with a separate local search process. The memetic or chromosomal algorithm is a simple algorithm with reliable performance that can provide accurate solutions to problems in the real world. The current challenge is with the increasing growth of datasets (more than 106) which include the process of clustering text analysis, molecular DNA simulation, feature selection, and forecasting, handling large-scale optimization such as complex simulations, data mining, quantum chemistry, spectroscopic analysis, geophysical analysis, drug discovery, and fingerprint recognition studies. Chromosome algorithms have proven to be very competitive in large-scale optimization because they are based on stochastic algorithms that do not require gradient information.

With the rapid development of technology, it benefits us in facilitating work in various fields. One example today is the use of modern technology in optimizing business processes. Information is one of the important assets for the Company in carrying out its business processes. With the rapid development of information technology also resulting in faster data movement, this must be used to help the Company in obtaining information quickly, precisely, effectively and efficiently. This is also evidenced by the increasing number of pioneering industries from small to large industries that are developing today. One of them is PT. XYZ. Of course, as a pioneering company, it requires a number of optimizations in its business process activities, one of which is reporting and recording. Because assets are one of the important elements in the Company's productivity, it is necessary to monitor the condition of assets regularly. The company still uses a manual asset damage reporting system using Whatsapp. Of course, this is less effective and efficient in the process, especially in recording activities to report damage to existing assets. Therefore, this study was conducted to help optimize the existing asset damage reporting system. From the results of the research, it can be seen using current technology, it can help optimize the reporting of damage to the Company's assets with the help of Google Sheets as its main database and Appsheet as a simple application for filling out reports.    

The need for technology is greatly needed by various groups, both in the world of education, in companies and government agencies as a solution to these problems. One of them is implementing an accounting information system for inputting, processing or reporting accounting in the company. This application can produce data processing quickly and accurately. This certainly saves a lot of time and also reduces errors that occur when work is done manually. Likewise with cooperatives, cooperatives also need to use an accounting information system to make their work faster and more accurate. The activities carried out at Primkopti "Harum" Kendal Regency are in the field of savings and loans. The process of recording loans at Primkopti "Harum" becomes ineffective and there is a risk of errors in information that is not accurate and fast, because the recording process is repetitive. For reporting, we still use Ms. Excel, which still requires data processing first from the books, both loans and installments, so there are often delays in submitting reports to management. Therefore, with a computerized system that can process customer data, collateral data, journals, loan and installment transactions, and also reports that will be made by Primkopti "Harum" will be valid, especially in calculating installment interest costs, using Macromedia Dreamweaver software 8, PHP programming language, and MySQL database. The results of the programming created help reduce errors in data entered, errors in interest calculations, financial reports are produced more quickly and effectiveness and efficiency can be achieved.
