The main aim is to create a system that fulfills user and stakeholder needs and supports necessary activities. The system must also have certain qualities, including effectiveness, precision, compatibility, adaptability, portability, and acceptability . This study used Microsoft Form. Microsoft Power Automate. Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Power BI to support the system. Specifically, in the process of liquid materials requirement controls, this research is expected to assist in designing a liquid material management system. Furthermore. Microsoft Power BI, as one of the tools utilized, is a software released by Microsoft in 2015 that is a cloud-based data analysis tool that can be used for data analysis and modeling complex data mashups . In line with the utilization of Microsoft Power BI, business intelligence is a term used to describe the technology and strategy used to collect, analyze, and integrate business information for a corporation. These advantages make corporate intelligence creation crucial, especially for Business intelligence (BI) can also refer to processes, structures, tools, databases, applications, and frameworks for data analysis and the creation of useful information from raw data to assist business managers in making decisions . In other words, business intelligence converts data into knowledge . Business intelligence aids engineers in gathering data, producing reports, and making With the help of business intelligence, organizations are becoming more data-driven in their decision-making. Meanwhile, for the approaches, there are three in the BI which depend on the goals of the development of the BI. There is a managerial approach, a technical approach, and value- INTRODUCTION The invention of new toys is quick in the labor-intensive field of toys. In this circumstance, toy businesses must manufacture high-quality goods that appeal to the general public and their intended market. The appealing appearance of a toy is crucial since, especially for fashion doll products, the first aspect to consider when buying a toy is its appearance. Fashion doll products must be explicitly packaged to endure a lengthy export and import distribution voyage while still looking good. A manufacturing company called PT TMC produces weliked fashion dolls that are sold all over the world. Many innovative techniques have been utilized on the product being produced to maintain its excellent appearance after the distribution process. The use of liquids to retain the fashion doll's hair in place despite numerous shocks and bumps during the distribution process is crucial to maintaining a fashion doll's attractive appearance. However, the material control of liquid material in PT TMC needs to be standardized and has numerous shortcomings that need improvement to make the material control sustainable. So, this research aims to standardize liquid material control and improve numerous shortcomings. By analyzing the current system's shortcomings and creating the proposed system using the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), this study focused on upgrading the liquid material control system. The system development life cycle (SDLC) is examined, and any deficiencies are clarified . SDLC for developing business intelligence avoids extremes by balancing the approach with the set of limitations for the developer to review the system .

E-ISSN : 2581-0367 added capabilities . Regardless of the desired result of BI, an organization-wide adoption implies a considerable change in the organization's business processes. The deployment of BI alters management for BI as an incremental or transformative process of gradually changing the organization's reporting structure . Furthermore, manufacturing companies are undoubtedly one of the foundations of economic strength in many nations. This industry's global prosperity depends on top-notch goods and production techniques. One nation's primary sources of income could come from its manufacturing sector. It is a significant business activity. The world has started to develop a strategy to sustain and expand its profit as the competition heats up and customers become more demanding . BI has been proposed to make precise and wise business decisions quickly. This includes applications and analytics based on operational and analytical databases . BI's applications and analytics can be a personal assistant for a real-time overview, a reference tool, and anticipation events . To enable effective decision-making inside a manufacturing company, in this case. PT TMCcollection of approaches, tools, and procedures known as business intelligence (BI) is used to gather, integrate, analyze, and present data from multiple sources or multidimensional overviews. Business intelligence will provide the integrated evaluation and analysis for the company . Business intelligence refers to a broad range of tools, methods, and technologies intended to assist organizations in deriving valuable insights from their data and using this knowledge to inform decision-making. The critical components of business intelligence include consolidating data from diverse sources, analyzing large datasets, presenting data comprehensibly, employing predictive analytics with statistical models, and ensuring data quality management. Data analysis or computational capabilities are essential for those three main components since the company and organization have massive amounts of data from their production process . This fact also applies to PT TMC, one of the largest toy manufacturing companies. It remains unknown if larger organizations that have adopted business intelligence, like publicly traded companies, get the full rewards of the systems' potential. In other words, the firm must implement business intelligence across all its functional areas to observe its strategic impact. Nevertheless, there are significant strategic implications for corporate intelligence . Enhancing economic performance is closely linked to the favorable effects on both routine and innovative aspects of organizational performance through the strategic utilization of business intelligence. Thus. PT TMC can improve its financial performance by strategically employing business intelligence. Furthermore, environmental efficiency is enhanced through business intelligence, which provides data integration and analytical capabilities for delivering crucial decision-making information to stakeholders across different organizational levels. This, in turn, facilitates strategic planning, performance improvements, and the creation of competitive advantages for PT TMC. Additionally, the ability to make smarter choices at all organizational levels is supported by the precise and relevant data provided by business intelligence, leading to better outcomes and more informed decision-making. Ultimately, business intelligence offers a competitive edge by equipping PT TMC with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions, positioning the company ahead of the competition, and potentially providing a market competitive II. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY. The research methodology shows the steps of conducting the The methodology used in this research is the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The SDLC was chosen because it outlines the framework with many activities and tasks to be completed during the development process that is adapted to lead to the main and additional outputs of the system . Figure 1 shows the research methodology that consists of seven stages: plan, design, development, test, implementation, maintenance, and evaluation. Plan In this stage, there are three steps: business process observation, data gathering, and identification of shortcomings. Those three steps have different objectives. Business process observation in PT TMC aims to describe the flow of the current liquid material control system. This data can be categorized as qualitative data, defined as non-numerical data shown in the word and non-numerical form, such as the flow of the current Qualitative data answers the questions of how and why . Data gathering refers to the process of collecting historical data from the database. This step is conducted by performing an audit on the production floor and using available historical It aims to determine the user and stakeholder requirements so that future improvement will be relatable for them. empower users to become aware of business requirements that will enable the development of a BI system that will improve the decision-making within the organization . After the business process is observed and data gathered. The shortcomings of the current condition can be identified. The shortcomings relate to the wastes that can be eliminated by developing the new system. Design In this stage, the shortcomings will be converted to a technical design that will improve the material control of liquid The required information types and the best methods for processing them are described in an information of systems architecture . System architecture serves as the big picture of the development of this system. The system's requirements from the users are crucial because it determines the system's With that, user and stakeholder requirements are expected to be satisfied by the improvement. In this instance, all users are involved in the conversation. After that, the dashboard is designed based on the user requirements. The example of user requirements is autocalculated material DOI : https://doi. org/10. 25139/inform. Inform : Jurnal Ilmiah Bidang Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi Vol. 9 No. 1 January 2024.

This stage is also related to the installation of the required software. The software required to be installed is only Microsoft Power BI for The form and dashboard are being published to the PT TMC server and will be restricted in access to revise or edit the system. Development The development stage follows the system architecture The development stage starts from the form of Microsoft Form is used because of its flexibility. the data will be stored on the organization's server. The data from the form will be stored in Microsoft Excel. Microsoft Power Automate will simplify the data structure and make a lighter database. The output is Microsoft Excel. Microsoft Excel will be the source of the dashboard. The ETL process involves extracting, transforming, and loading data into the Microsoft Power BI Tools. ETL collects data from a source, converts it to a new format compliant with business rules, and then moves it to the destination data structure . The dashboard is developed after the ETL process, considering user and stakeholder requirements. The key feature of the dashboard will be on the main page. An example of the key feature is filtering data based on categories. Maintenance As a result of the possibility that the data input is incorrect, maintenance must be carried out. The system will be monitored and checked during the care to ensure it functions as planned. On the off chance that there is a mistake, the system will need to be corrected. There is a connection between this stage and the development stage. A dashboard section has been set aside to monitor phony data to circumvent this issue. The integrity of the data may be maintained with more ease as a result of this Test Test stages consist of system testing based on the user The functionality and features will be tested. there were an error, the system could be evaluated and fixed before real users used it. Since the system development performs the ETL process, the accuracy of the calculated data is also being examined to ensure the business intelligence gives the right and precise material data. This process was performed by comparing the system developed and manual calculation Evaluation Evaluation refers to the satisfaction status of the users and This evaluation used a distributed questionnaire to identify the satisfaction level by emphasizing the question in the system's features. RESULT AND DISCUSSION Plan Business process observation for liquid material control in PT TMC can be seen in Figure 2. Implementation The implementation of the system will start with brief training for the user and stakeholders. The features available in Figure 1.

E-ISSN : 2581-0367 Figure 2 shows two user categories: grooming leaders and industrial engineers. Industrial engineers must input the liquid material requirements to the MRP system in production. The current database uses Microsoft Excel with five sheets that represent each material. This condition leads to the inefficiency of searching the data since the data in Microsoft Excel is still There are numerous ways to view data in modern times, including using Power BI. The user of Power BI can create visualizations that are both appealing and effective . Power BI also allows the user to use it as an application for analytics and sharing business knowledge within cloud integration, allowing the user to data discovery and preparation . The current database consists of 4 sheets for each type of liquid material. Four liquid materials are being used in PT TMC in the grooming process. These liquid materials include hair setting, aqua dest, jhonson, and weicon. Figure 3. Current Database Business Process Grooming Leader The current database has several shortcomings that could become a danger in the future, such as: Industrial Engineer . Manual Entry: Grooming Leader needs to input the data into Microsoft Excel. Due to extensive data, the Grooming Leader risks mistyping or inputting the data into the wrong sheet or column. Start Liquid Material Audit Result . Human Error: There are many possibilities for human error when using Microsoft as an open-access database. Inadvertence of erasing the data, miss-input, wrong formula, and manipulating the data can occur. This database will be used to produce data on the IBM MRP system. thus, it is important to overcome human error. Go to Office Input Data to Microsoft Excel Liquid Material Control Calculated Yield . The Accuracy of Data is Low: Microsoft Excel is open to The accuracy can be questioned because everyone can edit and manipulate the data. There is no guarantee that the data is the actual data. Calculate Yield for Stages . No Security: The security of the data is low since Microsoft Excel is open access to edit. Everyone can edit and even delete Microsoft Excel. Then, the data will be gone. Input to IBM MRP Requires Time to Get the Data: When industrial engineers want to input the yield from Microsoft Excel, they must search every sheet. This condition can be categorized as a waste since the time required to search is high. Finish Design System architecture corresponds to the fundamental that specify how a system is created. In this Shortcomings can be analyzed based on the current flow of the system architecture describes the emerging liquid material control.

From the dimension table to a fact table, there is only one direction and nine One-to-Many relations. There are no connections to the most recent refresh table. The relationship diagram is in Figure 9. The allowances of 7% have been added to the yield of all liquid materials. The IBM MRP system has set the unit of liquid materials, and the Microsoft Power BI has converted all yield into units on IBM MRP, so the engineer needs to input the displayed yield. Depending on their needs, engineers can filter the data. To increase the amount of data displayed, engineers can filter out all of section 1 or just one toy's identification. The filter section and stage-based yield information are on pages 2 and 3. As a filter and output for Hair Setting. Aquadest Styling. Aquadest Cleaning Jhonson.
