Implementation Apriori Method in Financial Management for Micro, Small, And Medium Enterprises

Abstract: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are business units in the economic sector owned by individuals or community-based business entities that make significant contributions to Indonesia's economy. MSMEs are businesses directly embedded within communities, often found in residential areas, and play an essential role in daily life. Financial management poses challenges for MSMEs in running their business operations. This research addresses the challenges faced by entrepreneurs in the MSME sector by employing the Apriori method to support the financial management application system. The method involves identifying the highest frequency of interconnected data needed for business operations. The system is developed as an Android-based application using Android Studio software and a database. This application is designed to draw conclusions from financial data, aiding decision-making in financial management for business units.
