This study aims to analyze the impact of digital innovation on financial management in Purbalingga Regency, focusing on two main systems: the Regional Government Information System (SIPD) and the Village Financial System (SISKEUDES). Digital innovation is considered important to enhance transparency, efficiency, and accountability in public financial management (Lips, 2020; Agostino, Bracci, & Steccolini, 2022). The method used is a qualitative approach with a case study supported by in-depth interviews with application users and previous research (Daffa, 2024; Nadaa & Priyanti, 2023). The findings show that the use of SIPD and SISKEUDES has successfully increased transparency and efficiency in financial reporting in Purbalingga through data integration and public access to information. However, technical issues, limited human resources, and lack of inter-agency cooperation remain obstacles. Efforts by the local government, such as routine training, system updates, and digital literacy improvement, have strengthened digital-based financial governance. Overall, this study shows that the success of digital innovation in public financial management is influenced not only by technology but also by institutional readiness, a culture of transparency, and community involvement in overseeing regional financial management.

The implementation of the Regional Government Information Sistem (Sistem Informasi Pemerintahan Daerah, SIPD) represents a strategic initiative to strengthen transparency, accountability, and efficiency in regional financial management. Designed to integrate financial data and facilitate standardized reporting across local government units, SIPD is regulated under Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 70 of 2019. However, in practice, the adoption of SIPD in various regions, including Rote Ndao Regency, encounters persistent technical and administrative challenges that limit its optimal utilization. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of SIPD in managing regional finances within Rote Ndao Regency. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, direct observation of system operations, and analysis of relevant documents. The findings reveal that SIPD implementation in Rote Ndao generally complies with the regulatory framework, indicating that the system has been formally adopted and is operational within the expected governance structure. Nonetheless, several issues undermine its effectiveness, including frequent system errors, limited functionality in accounting and reporting modules, and delays in data entry from organizational units. These limitations affect the timeliness, accuracy, and integration of financial reports, ultimately constraining decision-making processes. The study suggests that to fully realize SIPD’s potential, strategic improvements are required. These include enhancing the capacity and skills of human resources responsible for system operation, upgrading IT infrastructure to ensure system stability, and expanding SIPD’s features to meet practical accounting and reporting needs. The research contributes valuable insights for regional governments, policymakers, and system developers, emphasizing the need for continuous system refinement, targeted training programs, and infrastructure investment. By addressing these challenges, SIPD can serve as a more reliable and sustainable tool for promoting transparent and accountable regional financial governance.

This study aims to analyze the comparison of financial performance based on the liquidity, solvency, and profitability ratios of animal feed sub-sector companies listed on the IDX in 2018-2023. This study uses comparative research and is included in quantitative research. The sampling technique was carried out using the Purposive Sampling technique. The results of this study indicate a significant difference in the financial performance of animal feed sub-sector companies listed on the IDX with stock codes CPIN, CPRO, JPFA, MAIN, and SIPD based on the liquidity ratio (CR), solvency (DER), and profitability (ROA). The results of this study are expected to provide a reference for related companies to improve their respective financial performance, especially for those whose values ​​are below or above the industry average and can be used as a consideration for prospective investors.

This qualitative study explores in-depth the perceptions of students at Universitas Negeri Medan (UNIMED) regarding the influence of educational technology (EdTech) on their learning effectiveness. Amidst the global digital transformation, the integration of digital tools in higher education has become a strategic need to improve the quality of learning. This study used an interpretive phenomenological approach, with semi-structured interviews with 18 undergraduate students from various faculties as the primary data collection method. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis to identify patterns and meanings. The results show that EdTech, through the SIPDA platform, improves accessibility of learning resources, schedule flexibility, and collaboration, but is still hampered by limitations in infrastructure, digital literacy, and pedagogical integration. This study provides contextual insights from Indonesia, with practical recommendations to improve the implementation of EdTech at UNIMED and similar institutions.

Local financial management in Indonesia still faces significant challenges, such as budget inefficiencies, high dependence on central funds, and lack of locally generated revenue (PAD), which exacerbates development inequality, especially in underdeveloped regions such as Papua. This research highlights the importance of cross-sector collaboration and technology utilization for the optimization of local finance to achieve sustainable development equity. Collaboration between central and local governments, the private sector, and the community can improve transparency and accountability of budget management, while technologies such as e-budgeting, blockchain, and the Local Government Information System (SIPD) can accelerate the budget planning and monitoring process. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with thematic analysis of primary and secondary data to evaluate the effectiveness of technology integration and cross-sector collaboration. The results show that a strong synergy between collaboration and technology can improve budget efficiency, reduce dependency on central funds, and accelerate infrastructure development and public services in disadvantaged areas. Policy recommendations include strengthening local government capacity, implementing a blockchain-based monitoring system, and involving communities in development planning. This research contributes to the local financial management literature by offering evidence-based solutions that support inclusive and equitable development in Indonesia.

This study aims to determine how effective the implementation of local government information systems (SIPD) in supporting financial reporting at OPDs in Mataram City, namely RSUD X. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods with data collection techniques in the form of observations and interviews. The research analysis refers to the UTAUT effectiveness indicators consisting of Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influences and Facilitating Conditions. The results of this study indicate that the implementation of SIPD in supporting financial reporting at RSUD X when viewed in terms of indicators of performance expectancy, effort expectancy and facilitating conditions is still less effective because in its implementation SIPD still has many weakness both in terms of system stability and the availability of features needed, while for indicators of social influences SIPD can already be categorized as effective because the implementation of financial report data entry is adapted to user needs.
