Using a descriptive qualitative method involving interviews, observation, and documentation, the research found that only four of nine SAP modules are used, yet the system is well-implemented. The SAP system enhances financial report transparency by meeting key transparency characteristics, thereby reducing fraud and ensuring accurate financial disclosures. This suggests that even partial SAP implementation can significantly improve financial transparency. Highlight: Limited Modules: Four of nine SAP modules are effectively utilized.
