Design and implementation of a finance administration tool : A front end development study

Abstract: User interfaces are a crucial point in the usage of products. A user interface is developed to make a product easy to use and understand while also presenting data, feedback and functionality to the user. In this thesis we present and explain the whole development process of a front end project. The Swedish company, Kemizares, was searching for a user interface for their finance module in their upcoming application. In this work we developed the user interface for such a module with regards to Kemizares’ functional requirements as well as the necessity that the user interface of the module could be integrated into the their application which already had an existing user interface. The solution to the problem began with a literature study in which we researched tools and programs we would use to develop the module as well as researching national and international requirements for invoices to identify necessary data to use in the finance module. Afterwards we set up a timeline with deadlines to guide us throughout the development. An agile iterative feedback method was used during the implementation of the module with Kemizares. The finance module was created and with the iterative feedback method we used during development we were able to ensure that Kemizares was satisfied with the product. However, due to limiting factors we were not able to finish the whole module and hence not able to fulfill all the requirements. The conclusion is that the module in its current state is not a viable solution for Kemizares since it was left undone but a good ground to continue from that has taken required financial data, functional requirements, and design compatibility with the rest of the application into consideration.
