Implementasi Algoritma Sequential Search pada Pembayaran SPP Berbasis Web di Ma Taruna Teknik Al Jabbar

Abstract

Advancements in information technology have facilitated data processing and administrative tasks, including the payment process for school tuition fees (SPP). At MA Plus Taruna Teknik Al Jabbar, the tuition payment process is currently handled manually using record books, leading to issues such as recording errors, difficulties in retrieving student data, potential damage to or loss of records, and time-consuming payment reconciliation. This research aims to design and implement a web-based tuition payment system to assist administrative staff in managing, searching for, verifying, and presenting payment data more effectively and systematically. The system development follows the prototyping method, while data collection involved observation, interviews, documentation review, and a literature study. The developed system utilizes the Sequential Search algorithm to locate student and payment records based on names or Student ID Numbers (NIS). The results demonstrate that the web-based system successfully integrates student data processing, payment input, proof-of-payment uploads, transaction verification, data retrieval, and payment report generation. Implementing this system simplifies data management and payment searches for administrative staff while enabling the school principal to monitor payment reports in a more organized manner. Consequently, the developed system offers a solution to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and orderliness of tuition payment administration at MA Plus Taruna Teknik Al Jabbar.
