Abstract

This Community Service activity aims to enhance the financial administration management capacity of the RT (Neighborhood Unit) through the implementation of web-based information technology integrated with a digital payment (e-payment) system. The activity was conducted at RT.001/RW.007, Cibodasari Village, Cibodas District, Tangerang City, targeting RT administrators and residents who had been relying on manual and conventional dues collection systems. The methods employed included needs analysis, design and development of a web-based information system using PHP CodeIgniter 4 and MySQL, integration of Midtrans Snap API as a payment gateway, and competency-based training delivered to 31 participants. Evaluation was conducted through pre-test and post-test instruments consisting of 20 questions. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in participants' average understanding from 11% in the pre-test to 88% in the post-test, with 90% of participants able to independently operate the system by the end of the training. The resulting system, named SiIuran RT, successfully automated mass billing creation, WhatsApp notification delivery, payment receipt through more than 30 payment methods, and PDF-based digital financial reporting. The RT administrators' working time for dues collection was reduced from 2-3 days to only 10 - 15 minutes per month. This program proves effective as a model for RT administration digitalization that can be replicated in other areas.
