This community-based project aimed to analyze the cash management system of the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) Bakpia Juwara Satoe and develop recommendations to improve the company's financial performance. Cash management is a crucial but often overlooked aspect of MSME financial management, which can lead to cash flow problems, inaccurate record keeping, and poor management decisions. The methodology used included qualitative data collection through direct observation, in-depth interviews, and financial statement analysis. The project findings revealed that Bakpia Juwara Satoe lacked a functioning cash management system. There was no separation between cash receipts and disbursements, no standardized system for handling cash, and transaction recording remained manual and inconsistent. As part of the project, standard operating procedures (SOP) for cash management were developed, financial accounting training was conducted, and support was provided in creating simple cash flow statements. Following the implementation of these measures, record accuracy increased by 78%, and cash losses were reduced. It was determined that the implementation of efficient cash management contributed significantly to the improvement of Bakpia Juwara Satoe's financial performance.

Religious institutions such as mosques are part of non-profit public sector entities that manage public funds and therefore require accountable and transparent financial reporting standards. ISAK 335 is the applicable standard governing the presentation of financial statements for non-profit-oriented entities in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the conformity of financial management practices in three mosques in Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatra, namely Baiturrahman Mosque Sungayang, Nurul Huda Mosque Simpuruik, and Al-Amin Mosque Dobok Batusangkar, with the provisions of ISAK 335. The approach used in this research is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection conducted through interviews and observations. The results of the study indicate that the three mosques have not implemented ISAK 335 in the preparation of their financial statements. Financial management practices are still limited to recording cash receipts and cash disbursements without the classification of net assets, statements of financial position, statements of activities, or notes to financial statements standardized in accordance with ISAK 335. The main inhibiting factors include limited human resources in the field of accounting, lack of standard dissemination, and minimal regulatory pressure. This study recommends the need for continuous training, technical assistance, and stronger regulations for mosque financial managers so that mosque financial statements can be prepared and presented in accordance with the applicable standards for non-profit organizations, namely ISAK 335.

The Cash on Delivery (COD) system is one of the payment methods frequently used in online buying and selling transactions, where consumers pay for ordered products upon receipt of the goods. Although it provides convenience, this system often causes problems, especially related to transaction cancellations by consumers after the delivery process has been carried out by business actors. This research examines how the regulation and allocation of risk for goods return in the COD system according to the Civil Code and the forms of legal protection provided to business actors against the risk of goods return in the COD system according to Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection. The method used in this research is normative, supplemented by literature study results such as legislation. The results show that the Civil Code recognizes the concept of risk as a legal consequence related to the possibility of losses on the object of the agreement, and legal protection for business actors is divided into preventive legal protection and repressive legal protection.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (PSAK) 109 concerning Accounting for Zakat, Infaq, and Sadaqah at BAZNAS Tegal Regency and to assess its level of compliance with the applicable standards. This research is motivated by the importance of transparency and accountability in the management of zakat funds as a form of responsibility to the public and stakeholders. The study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach through observation, interviews, and documentation studies of the institution’s financial statements. The results indicate that BAZNAS Tegal Regency has prepared its financial statements in accordance with the components required by PSAK 109, including the statement of financial position, statement of changes in funds, statement of changes in managed assets, statement of cash flows, and notes to the financial statements. In terms of distribution, presentation, and disclosure, the implementation of the standard has complied both formally and substantively. However, in the aspects of recognition and measurement, the implementation is not yet fully comprehensive, as there has been no realization of non-cash asset receipts and no impairment testing has been applied to non-cash assets. Overall, the implementation of PSAK 109 has been administratively well executed, but further strengthening is required in technical and procedural aspects to ensure more optimal, consistent, and comprehensive application in accordance with sharia accounting principles.

The development of information technology has transformed trade from traditional markets to digital platforms, including Cash on Delivery (COD) payment systems. This study analyzes the integration of the COD system with the istishna contract in online transactions (specifically on Shopee), its implementation mechanisms, and its validity according to Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh muamalah). The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach through digital observation and literature review. The focus of the study was on pre-order or custom product transactions made after a specification agreement between the buyer (mustashni') and seller (shani'). The results showed that the COD system is valid in the istishna contract because it allows for final payment upon receipt of the goods. This is in accordance with Sharia law as long as the product specifications are clear, the price is transparent, and the buyer's right to khiyar is fulfilled to ensure the goods conform to the contract. As long as it is free from riba (usury), gharar (gharar), and tadlis (tadlis), the COD method in istishna transactions reflects fairness, openness, and benefits for both parties in the digital economy ecosystem.

Financial administration plays a crucial role in village-level governance, requiring transparency, accountability, and efficiency in the use of public funds. Currently, the Hameli Ate Village Office still relies on manual methods to manage its financial administration, including recording cash receipts and expenditures using notebooks and simple spreadsheets. This approach presents various issues, such as the risk of data loss, calculation errors, delays in report preparation, and difficulties in tracking and collecting financial transaction data. This study aims to develop a web-based financial administration information system to assist village officials in managing financial data more effectively, efficiently, and in an integrated manner. The methods applied include observation, interviews, and document collection to understand system requirements, while the system development process is implemented using the Waterfall model, which consists of the stages of analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The system was built using the PHP programming language and a MySQL database and is designed to generate financial reports automatically and in real time. The testing results show that the system can handle income and expenditure data more quickly, accurately, and in a user-friendly manner. With the implementation of this information system, the financial administration process at the Hameli Ate Village Office becomes more transparent, accountable, and facilitates data-driven decision-making.

Cash receipts represent one of the essential components for the hospitality industry. Hotels generate revenue primarily through room rentals, the use of available facilities, as well as the sale of food and beverages provided in their in-house restaurants. This study aims to understand how the internal control system is implemented in managing cash receipts and verifying invoices at Hotel XYZ. This research adopts a qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach. The descriptive analysis in this study involves presenting data in the form of verbal descriptions, images, or graphics. Based on the analysis using the COSO framework, the results indicate that elements such as the control environment and control activities have been implemented effectively and optimally. However, the analysis also reveals that the risk assessment component within the cash receipt process has not yet been fully optimized, indicating a need for additional training and improvement in that area.

This research animed to analyze the cash sales accounting information system at PT Garam Pintar Asia.The research method employed was descripitive qualitative since the data collected consisted of statements obtained by the resear cher. The data collection techniques used in this study were interviews, observations, and documentation.The sources of data consistend of both primary and secondary data. The result of this study indicated that the cash sales accounting information system implemented by PT Garam Pintar Asia was still not effective. This was evident in the absence of a clear separation of duties for functions related to cash sales, with the cashier concurrently handling cash and accounting functions. The documentation employed within the cash sales accounting information system did not conform to established accounting standards, as the company had yet to implement formal cash sales invoices and cash register receipts, relying instead on simple handwritten notes as evidence of payment. Furthermore, the company had not designed a cash sales flowchart and did not yet have a financial application to manage cash sales transactions.Instead, Microsoft Excel was used merely to record cash sales transactions, proofs of transactions, and sales reports.

The purpose of this investigation is to analyze the influence of digital transaction methods on the control mechanisms of cash revenue at the Grand Hyatt Bali Hotel. The study applies a qualitative descriptive design, where information is gathered through interviews, field observations, and the review of supporting documents, including transcripts of discussions. The findings reveal that digital payments at the Grand Hyatt Bali provide convenience to guests in conducting transactions such as transaction speed, recording accuracy, and ease in the verification process. However, the use of digital payments also has a negative impact where digital cash receipts are recorded in the accounts receivable section requiring many supporting documents making it appear less optimal and less functional and highly dependent on the availability and stability of the internet network connection. From an internal control perspective, digital payments help improve transparency and accuracy in cash recording processes. The risk of miscalculations or data manipulation is reduced because transaction evidence is readily available digitally, in the form of sales slips, system notifications, and account statements. The mechanism of internal supervision regarding cash inflows at Grand Hyatt Bali Hotel based on COSO consists of several components, namely the organizational climate, monitoring practices, hazard analysis, exchange of insights and knowledge, and supervision. Overall, the implementation of internal controls has been carried out by all staff, however, the implementation is still not optimal related to the collection of documents that are still late, this is caused by staff knowledge about the documents required when digital payments are still not executed according to the procedures outlined in the SOP.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the imprest method in petty cash management to enhance the effectiveness of daily operations at the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) Es Iso Lego, located in Rungkut Madya, Surabaya. The research is motivated by common issues among MSMEs that still apply simple petty cash systems without fixed balances, leading to inaccurate records and weak financial control. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through direct interviews with the business owner, observation of daily operational activities, and documentation of purchase receipts and digital financial records. The findings reveal that the petty cash system at Es Iso Lego has not fully applied the imprest method principles, as the cash balance remains fluctuating and is not maintained consistently. Although each expenditure is supported by receipts, the recording process lacks systematic structure. The results imply that applying the imprest method is essential to improve efficiency, accountability, and internal control in MSME financial management. A fixed-balance petty cash system with proper documentation enables business owners to better monitor daily expenses and ensure financial transparency.

This study aims to analyze cash management practices in Batik MSMEs in Cirebon Regency using a qualitative approach that combines direct observation and in-depth interviews with business owners. The study found that most Batik MSMEs still rely on manual cash management systems, which ultimately poses various challenges, particularly in terms of unstructured financial recording and minimal cash flow planning. This condition makes it difficult to communicate receipts and expenditures in real time, potentially leading to errors in fund management and disrupting business financial stability. Furthermore, the study revealed variations in cash receipt recording methods, such as daily or weekly recording, which are inconsistent across MSMEs. This impacts transparency and effective financial control. The lack of thorough cash flow planning also makes it difficult for business owners to deal with insufficient liquidity, especially when there is a surge in sales or sudden needs. As a result, some MSMEs experience problems meeting their payment obligations on time, including to suppliers and employees. The findings of this study highlight the importance of financial literacy education for Batik MSMEs so they can understand the basic concepts of cash management well. Furthermore, the use of digital technology, such as simple financial recording applications, is highly recommended to improve efficiency and accuracy in cash flow management. This technology implementation is expected to assist MSMEs in making more informed financial decisions and supporting the long-term sustainability of their businesses. Therefore, this study provides strategic recommendations for local governments and MSME support institutions to provide adequate training and technological facilities to strengthen financial management capacity in the batik MSME sector in Cirebon Regency.

This study aims to analyze the application of accounting information systems in cash receipts and expenditures and assess their contribution to the effectiveness of internal control at the Sekoto Putro Showroom in Kediri. The research methodology employed is a qualitative approach, with data gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that the current accounting information system is still manual and lacks standard operating procedures (SOPs). The process of cash receipt and disbursement is managed by the finance department under the direct supervision of the owner, who also functions as the primary controller. The owner’s consent is required for all large transactions, and internal control is implemented informally through cash checks and transaction authorizations. However, there are notable weaknesses, including the absence of a clear separation of duties and a lack of a well-documented recording and authorization system. These weaknesses pose risks to the efficiency and reliability of financial management and internal control. Consequently, this study recommends the implementation of a computer-based accounting system, the creation of written SOPs, and a more defined separation of financial duties. Such changes are expected to enhance the effectiveness of internal control, improve operational efficiency, ensure more accurate record-keeping, and minimize the risk of financial losses in showroom cash management. By transitioning to a formalized and computerized system, the showroom can streamline its processes and safeguard its financial resources, ensuring long-term sustainability and growth. This research highlights the need for modernizing accounting practices to foster better financial governance and strengthen internal controls in small to medium-sized businesses.

The objective is for Am Collection Store to record all cash receipts from sales without the need for manual bookkeeping. The system design tools used include UML, such as Use Case Diagram,  and Class Diagram. The result of this research is the design of a web-based accounting information system for cash receipts, which simplifies cash management to be more effective and efficient. Additionally, it produces detailed reports on matters related to the cash receipt processes from transactions conducted by both customers and sellers.

This study aims to analyze the cash disbursement accounting system for building maintenance at PT Bernofarm Pharmaceutical Company, a national pharmaceutical firm that has implemented an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. The primary issue addressed is the effectiveness of internal control mechanisms in handling cash disbursements, particularly cash transactions that are susceptible to errors and fraud. A qualitative descriptive case-study approach was adopted, using the COSO Framework—including control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information & communication, and monitoring. Data were collected through direct observation, interviews, and internal document analysis. Findings indicate that PT Bernofarm has implemented segregation of duties, tiered authorizations, and effective use of ERP for recording and disbursing funds. Nonetheless, weaknesses were found regarding the timely submission of cash transaction receipts and delays in physical document reporting, which affect data accuracy. Consequently, strengthened reporting procedures and a more comprehensive digital archiving system are recommended. This research offers practical contributions to reinforcing digital-based cash disbursement accounting systems and highlights the importance of adaptive internal control in the context of cash transactions.
