Abstract?The management of educational funds in schools requires high administrative accuracy and clear accountability to ensure transparency and accountability. Based on observations conducted at MIS Azrina, the management of educational funds derived from tuition fees and other educational contributions is still carried out manually, particularly in the processes of recording and data processing. This condition may lead to recording errors, delays in financial reporting, and limited access to financial information for school administrators and parents. This study aims to develop a mobile-based Educational Fund Management Information System as a solution to these issues. The system was developed using the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) framework with the Waterfall model, which consists of requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance stages. A mixed-methods approach was applied during the requirements assessment phase, employing qualitative methods through interviews and observations, as well as quantitative methods through questionnaire distribution to 25 respondents, including the principal, administrative staff, teachers, and parents. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis. The results indicate that 62% of respondents strongly agreed and 30% agreed regarding the ease of access to financial information, while the transparency aspect received 70% strongly agree and 25% agree responses. In addition, the ease of report generation achieved a combined strong agreement and agreement rate of 93%, and data security was positively evaluated with a total agreement rate of 85%. These findings demonstrate that the mobile-based system is effective in improving efficiency, transparency, and accountability in the management of educational funds at MIS Azrina.
