This research focuses on the phenomenon that occurs at Cipadas Coffee and Chill, a business in Sukajadi District, Pekanbaru City, which has been operating for about three years but has not prepared financial reports based on Micro, Small and Medium Entity Financial Accounting Standards (SAK EMKM). This research aims to identify and analyze the obstacles faced by partnership owners in preparing financial statements based on SAK EMKM. In this study, researchers used a qualitative approach with the case study method. The data used is primary data obtained from direct interviews with business owners. The results showed that Cipadas Coffee and Chill had not implemented SAK EMKM in compiling its financial reports due to several reasons, namely the owner's lack of knowledge about SAK EMKM and the procedures for preparing appropriate financial reports, lack of owner participation in socialization activities about SAK EMKM and owner orientation which was more inclined to the aspect of operating profit. Thus, the results of this study indicate the need for further education and socialization efforts to partnership owners regarding the importance of applying SAK EMKM in preparing financial reports. With adequate knowledge and understanding, it is hoped that Cipadas Coffee and Chill will be able to prepare financial reports in accordance with applicable accounting standards, thereby increasing transparency and financial accountability.

This community service activity aims to improve basic accounting literacy for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through financial recording training and simple financial report making. Many MSME actors do not have a neat bookkeeping system, making it difficult to find out net income and access financing from financial institutions. Therefore, the introduction of simple accounting is a strategic step to encourage more professional and sustainable business management. This activity was carried out by a team of lecturers accompanied by students, with a participatory approach and based on direct practice. The training material includes basic understanding of accounting, recording daily transactions, preparing income statements, and simulating the use of financial statements for working capital submissions. Through this method, it is hoped that there will be an effective and applicable transfer of knowledge from academics to the public. The results of the activity showed that participants were able to understand the importance of financial recording and began to implement a simple bookkeeping system in their business operations. In addition, participants also showed increased confidence in compiling financial statements that can be used as supporting documents in applying for financing to cooperatives, banks, or other financial institutions. This activity not only provides practical benefits for MSME actors, but also strengthens the role of universities in community economic empowerment. In the future, similar activities can be developed with the integration of digital technology to support more efficient and accurate financial recording.

Housewives in Tinalan GK II RW 04 Prenggan Kotagede Yogyakarta are business actors who manage their businesses with inadequate skills, especially in terms of financial management and recording, as well as entrepreneurial innovation.

The Liga 1 Independent Campus Competition Program (PKKM) is an initiative of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology which aims to provide opportunities for students to learn outside the classroom through structured internship activities. The Independent Learning Independent Campus (MBKM) internship program is designed to equip students with readiness to enter the business and industrial world (DUDI), as well as implement course theory through hands-on work practice in the field. The MBKM internship activity which was carried out in Bongo Village, Batudaa Pantai District, Gorontalo Regency, aimed to provide real experience to students in village financial management. Bongo Village was chosen as the location of the internship because of its reputation as the best village in the region. The intern students converted the courses that had been programmed with the practice of implementing the village financial system based on the Siskeudes application. Through this activity, students not only understand the theory of public financial management, but also gain technical and social skills in interacting with village officials and the community. The results of the internship activities show that students are able to understand and operate the Siskeudes system effectively. The knowledge and skills gained are expected to be implemented in nine other villages in Bone Bolango District, as a form of real contribution to more transparent and accountable village financial governance. This program proves that collaboration between universities and village governments can have a positive impact on human resource capacity building and village governance. Thus, MBKM internships are a strategic means in supporting the transformation of higher education that is relevant to the needs of the community and regional development.

Not only technical skills, this training also equips participants with soft skills such as business communication skills, teamwork, and creative and innovative thinking. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in participants' understanding of the basic principles of entrepreneurship and readiness to start a business independently. The pre-test and post-test evaluations showed a spike in comprehension scores, while the business plan products developed by participants showed creativity and the use of local potential that had not been previously worked on. Some participants have even formed community-based small business groups. This training also succeeded in forming an adaptive and innovative entrepreneurial mindset and building a social network that supports business collaboration.

Entrepreneurship training is a key strategy for empowering village economies, especially among youth from Karang Taruna and PKK members. In Kaladawa Village, local potential such as agriculture and handicrafts has not been fully utilized due to limited entrepreneurial knowledge and exposure. This program aims to enhance participants' entrepreneurial competencies through practical-based training methods, including interactive lectures, group discussions, and business simulations. A participatory approach was implemented to help participants identify local potentials, develop business ideas, and formulate digital-based marketing strategies. The results of the training indicate a significant improvement in participants’ understanding of entrepreneurship, as reflected in the emergence of innovative business plans focused on local and digital products. Pre- and post-training evaluations showed increased motivation, creativity, and readiness among participants to initiate independent ventures. The training also fostered a sustainable entrepreneurial spirit by covering essential topics such as financial management, digital transformation, and business networking. Participants acknowledged that direct experiences and intensive mentoring during the sessions played a crucial role in building their confidence and competitiveness. However, for long-term success, continuous mentoring and institutional support are required, along with strategic collaboration between stakeholders such as village governments, local MSMEs, and higher education institutions. Thus, this program not only contributes to improving technical and entrepreneurial skills but also plays a pivotal role in developing a self-reliant and sustainable rural entrepreneurial ecosystem. The integration of similar training into broader community empowerment programs is recommended to ensure lasting impact, inclusive access, resilience, innovation, adaptability, creativity, empowerment, collaboration, leadership, and meaningful local economic development.

This paper explores the potential of integrating Sharia-compliant financial technology (fintech) innovations with sukuk issuance to drive sustainable infrastructure development in emerging economies. With the rise of digital transformation and the increasing focus on sustainable development, the Islamic financial system provides a unique opportunity to reconcile financial innovation with ethical principles. The study highlights how Sharia fintech platforms, such as crowdfunding and blockchain, can enhance the efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of sukuk as a financial instrument. At the same time, sukuk addresses the significant financing gap in infrastructure development while adhering to Islamic principles, such as avoiding riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maysir (speculation). Through a comprehensive literature review and empirical analysis, this research identifies the gaps in existing approaches to financing sustainable infrastructure in emerging economies and proposes a novel integration framework. Findings suggest that the convergence of Sharia fintech and sukuk can facilitate financial inclusion, attract a broader investor base, and accelerate infrastructure financing. Furthermore, this integration supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by ensuring that financial tools align with social justice and environmental stewardship. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on Islamic finance by providing actionable insights for policymakers, financial institutions, and fintech developers. It emphasizes the importance of regulatory frameworks and cross-sector collaboration to unlock the full potential of Sharia-complian

This study aims to analyze the spending patterns of students at the Faculty of Islamic Economics and Business (FEBI), State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UINSU), and to examine the implementation of personal financial planning in their daily lives. This research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 40 students from various departments and semesters, selected purposively.
