Abstract
Education plays a crucial role in building a solid foundation for the progress of a nation. As an entity, education is very important. Education in a country like Indonesia is reflected in various aspects that are closely related to national development. Education not only provides access to knowledge and skills, but is also a major milestone in reducing poverty and social inequality. Educational progress cannot be separated from educational management managed by each agency. Each agency has a vision and mission to achieve its goals. Successful educational attainment depends on several factors, one of which is financial management. Financial management is an inevitable foundation in life, playing an important role in ensuring financial stability, success and well-being. Financial management is very important in providing education.
SMKN 1 Magelang in an effort to advance education both in terms of infrastructure and other needs, provides the opportunity for each unit to submit a budget plan every year. Submission of budget plans is done manually using a paper form. Problems that always arise in every budget are irregular data and time efficiency. Filtering activity priorities is also difficult for the budget team. Therefore, a problem solution is needed in the form of a system that can manage the management of the budget design. Information systems have many advantages such as good management and reporting and can increase time efficiency. Currently developing information technology allows budget planning using information systems, becoming the right solution for managing budget plans.
The research objectives to be achieved are as follows: Produce an appropriate information system to help prepare School Activity Plans and Budgets (RKAS) at SMKN 1 Magelang.
The method used is Rapid Application Development (RAD) with three stages including planning, design and implementation. This method was chosen because it has the advantage of being able to produce a quality system in a short time.
The main finding in this research is the existence of a filtering feature to determine the budget priority scale.
Increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of RKAS design time at SMKN 1 Magelang and making it easier to develop and build the RKAS information system using the RAD method.
