Aksyaa: Web-based Accounting Information System with Sharia Financial Perspective

Abstract

For small and medium enterprises (SMEs), tools for recording and managing company finances are critically needed. Many of these SMEs have not been successful in improving their business performance, partly because of their inability to manage their business resources. So if there is a freeware licensed financial management tool, this will be helpful. Aksyaa is an acronym for a webbased Accounting Information System developed by our research group. It can be said that Aksyaa is a start-up product. The system has been installed on a cloud server on the domain url: www.aksyaa.com. Aksyaa was developed using the Flask python web framework and the MariaDB database. UML diagram is also used as a design model. Aksyaa was developed based on an accounting reference book that follows international financial reporting standards. The development of Aksyaa has included the recording of general journals, sales reports, purchase reports and general ledgers. Its output includes sales reports, purchase reports, cash flows, balance sheets and income statements. Currently Aksyaa is in the beta testing phase. In further development, it will adapt the sharia perspective so that it is planned to become an accounting information system that applies sharia principles.
