DEVELOPING THE STRUCTURE OF A WEB APPLICATION FOR PERSONAL FINANCE ACCOUNTING

Abstract

Modern payment services in the form of online banks and accounting services are designed to monitor the user’s funds. This allows you to track bank transactions through a personal account of the web-application, to keep track of the receipt or expenditure of funds. However, for a user who has several credit cards, current accounts, deposits in banks it is necessary to integrate information about current funds in a single information space. The purpose of the study is to develop a prototype web application for accounting personal finances. Method or methodology of work: methods of designing information systems. Results: the analysis of financial accounting applications has shown that they have a number of similar functionalities. These features are related to the registration of the user, the cardholder of a particular bank, tracking the progress of transactions, and ensuring security. However, the applications are limited in terms of the ability to record personal finances of third-party bank cards or electronic virtual accounts (e.g., mobile operators). Therefore, in our work we have developed an application architect, consisting of seven pages. The main page of the site is needed to ensure the safety of the application, receiving notifications from the banks by the user. The main functional purpose of the pages of the site - cards, credits, payments and transfers is aimed at interactive interaction of user with different banks, providing control of receipt and expenditure of money kept on different accounts. It is suggested to introduce the pages goals and calendar into the structure of the site to enable the user to plan expenses by specifying the list of goods and services at certain periods of time. The site page “settings” is used for tweaking the styles of the web-application. Scope of the results: the developed prototype of web-application for accounting of personal finances is needed for practical implementation of the application, which will allow integrating information about the current state of the user’s money.
