DEVELOPMENT OF A BUSINESS MANAGEMENT APPLICATION: DOCUBOOK

Faris Selimović

This paper presents the design, implementation, and validation of DocuBook, a web-based business management application developed to reduce the administrative burden on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The system addresses critical challenges related to regulatory compliance, document management, and financial record-keeping by replacing error-prone, paper-based processes with a structured and secure digital platform. Developed using the Django framework, DocuBook provides centralized management for outgoing (KIF) and incoming (KUF) invoices, protocol-registered documents, and daily cash flow (DP) entries. Its modular architecture ensures maintainability and supports future expansion. The application has been successfully deployed in a live business environment, where it has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing administrative overhead, minimizing human error, and streamlining compliance procedures. The project confirms that a tailored, lightweight solution can significantly modernize operations for local businesses without the complexity and cost of large-scale enterprise systems.
