During the activity, the team of lecturers provided assistance in raw material inventory management and simple financial recording tailored to the operational needs of the business.
In the aspect of inventory management, the assistance was directed at helping the partner record and monitor raw materials in a more structured manner. Meanwhile, in the aspect of financial recording, the team introduced the use of a simple cash register/POS as a means of helping record sales transactions in a more practical, systematic, and documented manner.
In addition to providing assistance, the community service team also handed over several supporting devices and materials to the partner, namely a cash register, Digital Menu QR Code plaque, Inventory Module, and Cash Register Module.
