Growing demand for financial and non-financial information by the users of financial reports leads to an emphasis on financial statements' informativeness. Investments in intellectual capital, being highly demanding information by the users, holds an important place in providing informative financial reports despite its lack of proper accounting recognition criteria in financial statements. Thus, the purpose of our study is to examine how intellectual capital disclosures affect the financial statement informativeness of listed companies in Sri Lanka. Financial Statement Informativeness was measured using the explanatory power of financial information in explaining market value. Content analysis of annual reports followed by a quantity and quality index of Intellectual Capital Disclosure was used to measure the Intellectual Capital Disclosures. A sample of 48 companies listed in CSE that disclose Intellectual Capital was used and empirical analysis was carried out using the Poisson regression method. A significant relationship between Financial Statement Informativeness and Intellectual Capital Disclosures has been found, suggesting that FSI plays a substantial role in providing disclosure on intellectual capital in financial reports. This study confirms to make managers aware of its significant and positive effect on financial statement informativeness in financial reports, given the importance of Intellectual Capital reporting in mitigating financial information disparity. An important implication of the findings is that the policymakers and regulators need to establish a uniform IC reporting methodology to establish consistent disclosure practices.

Apprenticeship is a student activity carried out on the basis of cooperation between the University and the institution where the work apprenticeship program is implemented which aims to be a place of learning as well as training for students to assess students' knowledge and understanding of the learning that has been given on campus and applied directly to the world of work at once Where there are difficulties in getting information on job apprenticeship vacancies, students usually search by contacting related agencies or seeing job internship vacancies on the online platform of each agency, which if accommodated will be very time consuming.Therefore a media is needed to accommodate information on vacancies as well as a place to register for an internship program that is easy, fast and easy to use by students and companies to create job apprenticeship vacancies.Purpose of this research is to make an application that can accommodate all of these activities from opening and looking for job apprenticeship program vacancies, approving and collaborating on apprenticeship programs as well as providing value or results of an integrated internship program with transcript information and Certificate of Companion Diploma (SKPI) Students. This media will be designed using a web application as well as the use of a progressive web app to be used on all types of platforms.

Toko Mitra is a grocery or retail store that is engaged to meet daily needs. Monitoring stock and transaction financial reports at Partner Stores in Semarang often experience problems. This is because the shop owner still uses a manual system, so that the recording of incoming and outgoing goods still does not match the last stock. Therefore, I want to provide a solution to Partner Shop owners by creating a web-based stock monitoring program. In building a stock monitoring system, I use programming languages PHP and JavaScript, MySQL as a database, and the CodeIgniter framework. The existence of a web-based stock monitoring system at Partner Stores is expected to help monitor activities that occur in the store to make it faster and more efficient.

Because of the developments of technologies, the use of cameras in every device has become common nowadays. In the context of technology, this new feature can be utilized to search and find data and even read the data in the system. To store data in the real world, the use of QR-Code has been becoming common but rarely been implemented in POS Application. Because of this kind of capability, the three of these technologies can be integrated to ease the human’s works. Several problems in business need contributions like this. In order to prove that, this research had been conducted to a retail shop by implementing Point of Sales Application and doing interviews to collect data as proof of the hypothesis. In order to do that, the research will be started to ask several questions about the needs of the business and build the application using Rapid Application Development Methodology. Rapid Application Development Method will be using the data from the interview as the requirements of system development. The Rapid Application Development Methodology was used because it has effectiveness and efficiency to build applications without wasting time and efforts in building useless features. After the application is done, then the testing will be conducted by listing all main features of the application and checking whether the application works as expected. When the testing is done, the implementation of application will be conducted directly to the business. Implementation will be meeting several issues and revisions, in this section, another interview will be conducted in order to gather information about anything that needs to be fixed or changed.
