Abstract

The design of the information system and its development was carried out on Jam^iyyah (Persis Banjaran) business actors in Bandung Regency. One of the main problems faced by these business actors is the inability of business actors to record economic transactions and compile them in adequate financial reporting to determine how much zakat should be paid accurately. This is due to the lack of knowledge of business actors about the importance of adequate financial reporting as a basis for calculating zakat in accordance with the Al- Quran and Al-Hadist. Designing the right accounting information system and developed according to the needs of business actors can be a solution to the problems faced by Jam^iyyah (Persis Banjaran) business actors. The design and development of this accounting information system resulted in an application named Kaashir as a result of excellent thinking and collaboration between the PKM team and the information technology development team from the Persis Banjaran Youth group. The development of accounting information systems in the form of the Kaashir application will continue so that this application can be widely used by all business people in Indonesia.
