Accountability in preparing financial reports is a crucial instrument for the sustainability of business entities, because inaccurate financial data management can hinder decision-making and harm business performance in the future. For MSME actors in the PKK Tanggamus community, strengthening financial reporting competence is an urgent need so they can map expenditure structures, record income, calculate profit, and evaluate business development periodically. This community service activity aims to improve participants’ financial discipline, particularly in separating personal assets, business capital, and gross profit, while introducing accessible office technology. The training focused on optimizing LibreOffice Calc as an alternative to Microsoft Excel with similar functions for creating transaction tables, cost recapitulations, and simple financial reports. The activity method included material presentation, software demonstrations, report preparation practice, and interactive discussions based on participants’ business needs. Training results showed high enthusiasm, improved understanding, and readiness to use LibreOffice Calc as a more organized, transparent, and sustainable financial recording tool. Thus, this activity provides practical contributions to building an accountable financial administration culture for community-based MSMEs.

This study aims to develop an educational application based on a Graphical User Interface (GUI) using MATLAB App Designer that functions as an interactive simulation for evaluating blood pressure. The application allows users to input systolic and diastolic blood pressure values along with supporting information such as name and age. The input data are then analyzed and classified into several blood pressure categories according to the standards of the American Heart Association (AHA), including normal, hypotension, stage 1 hypertension, stage 2 hypertension, and hypertensive crisis. The classification results are presented visually through an interactive pie chart with dynamic percentages and legends to enhance user understanding. In addition, all data are automatically stored in a Microsoft Excel file containing a summary of blood pressure categories and session timestamps. The system is designed with a simple interface and intuitive interaction, making it suitable for early health education purposes. Although the application still relies on manual data input, it has the potential to serve as an effective learning tool for increasing public awareness of the importance of regular blood pressure monitoring.
