Optimization of Income and Expenditure Control through an Information System at the “La Perla” Shopping Center

Optimización del Control de Ingresos y Egresos mediante un Sistema de Información en el Centro Comercial “La Perla”

Resumen

This project focuses on the design and implementation of a web-based system to automate the recording, control, and consultation of income and expenses. It also aims to support proper user management and the generation of informative reports to assist decision-making at La Perla Shopping Center, located in Teziutlán, Puebla. The study followed an applied research approach and used the Object-Oriented Hypermedia Design Method (OOHDM) for system analysis and design. The system was developed using Java 17, Spring Boot 3.4.3, Hibernate, JPA, MySQL, Jakarta Validation, and ModelMapper. Testing activities were carried out using Postman, and GitHub was used to manage version control. The study sample consisted of members of the board of directors of the Shopping Center Tenants Association, who actively contributed to the identification of system requirements through interviews and regular meetings. As a result of this process, fifteen functional modules were developed and implemented, covering features such as user authentication, PDF report generation, rent management, payments, expense tracking, repair management, notifications, and financial dashboards. Overall, the automation of these processes is expected to provide more agile, reliable, and centralized management of the shopping center’s financial and administrative activities.
