Dosen Fakultas Ekonomi dan Bisnis (FEB) Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) melaksanakan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat (PkM) di Yayasan Masjid Agung Gamping, Ambarketawang, Sleman. Kegiatan ini diketuai oleh Dr. Dhyah Setyorini, M.Si., Ak., CA., dengan anggota tim Prof. Sukirno, Ph.D., Diana Rahmawati, M.Si., Mahendra Adhi Nugroho, Ph.D., dan Dian Juliani, M.Sc. Dalam kegiatan ini, tim dosen FEB UNY menggandeng Yayasan Masjid Agung Gamping sebagai mitra dalam rangka membantu memperkuat pengelolaan keuangan masjid yang transparan, akuntabel, dan efisien.

Latar belakang dari program ini adalah pentingnya pengelolaan keuangan masjid yang profesional agar dana yang terkumpul dapat dipertanggungjawabkan dengan baik. Dengan demikian, tim PkM FEB UNY berusaha membantu pihak Yayasan Masjid Agung Gamping melalui pengembangan sebuah sistem yang disebut SIMAG Sakinah (Sistem Informasi Masjid Agung Gamping: Sistem Akuntansi Kas Informatif dan Amanah). Sistem ini diharapkan mampu mengotomatisasi pencatatan penerimaan dan pengeluaran kas secara terkomputerisasi, sehingga memudahkan pengurus dalam memantau dan mencatat setiap transaksi.

Tidak hanya mengembangkan sistem, tim dosen juga memberikan pendampingan dan pelatihan penerapan SIMAG Sakinah bagi para pengurus masjid. Melalui pelatihan ini, para pengurus dibimbing untuk dapat menggunakan aplikasi secara efektif, sehingga meningkatkan kemampuan mereka dalam pengelolaan keuangan masjid. Pendampingan ini dilakukan secara intensif untuk memastikan bahwa sistem dapat digunakan dengan baik dan sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip akuntansi yang diharapkan.

Dampak dari program PkM ini tidak hanya terbatas pada peningkatan keterampilan digital pengurus masjid, tetapi juga diharapkan dapat menciptakan transparansi dan akuntabilitas dalam pengelolaan dana. Dengan adanya SIMAG Sakinah, pengelolaan dana Yayasan Masjid Agung Gamping kini menjadi lebih modern, dan kepercayaan jamaah terhadap pengelolaan dana masjid diharapkan meningkat. (rn/fdhl)
