INTRODUCTION
Indonesia must keep up with global technological advances in order to compete internationally.In this situation, Indonesia seeks to accelerate development in a number of fields, especially the economic sector.In particular, maximizing the function of financial institutions, both bank and non-bank financial institutions.Banks function as intermediary media, absorbing money from businesses, government organizations, and households whose economy is in surplus both domestically and abroad to finance other business units that are in deficit (need money) (Andri Soemitra, 2010: 27).The government as a diplomatic agent provides opportunities for parties who want to establish a business that is sourced from the community and releases it back to the community in an effort to achieve development goals carried out by the government, especially in the banking sector, 2 | Ummi Itiah Nasution, Kamilah K, Nur Ahmadi Bi Rahmani; The Influence Of Financial Inclusion And Financial Literacy On ... banks as business entities that focus on achieving profits, and the government as a diplomatic agent.as a source of funding (Dahrani & Mirhanifah, 2014).And to get to that international progress, financial inclusion and financial literacy are controversial issues.Financial inclusion is usually considered as a policy tool that promotes stability and growth in poverty alleviation (Sulhan, 2021).A policy known as the financial inclusion policy was created by Bank Indonesia to promote financial inclusion.This strategy includes the expansion of financial services aimed at the community.Bank Sumut Syariah Panyabungan is the right bank to be studied regarding financial inclusion and financial literacy, according to the explanation given above.Financial success and strong customer service is the description of Bank Sumut Syariah Panyabungan.

METHODS
This research will use quantitative research methods as its main research methodology.To study a specific population or sample, researchers use quantitative research methodologies that are positivist in nature (Iqbal Hidayatulloh, 2020).In this study, Bank Sumut Syariah Panyabungan was used as the research location.The research population was all 13 employees of Bank Sumut ISSN: 2338-8412 e-ISSN : 2716-4411 4 | Ummi Itiah Nasution, Kamilah K, Nur Ahmadi Bi Rahmani; The Influence Of Financial Inclusion And Financial Literacy On ... Syariah Panyabungan.In this study, the saturated sampling method was used (also called total sampling).Samples from saturated sampling represent the entire population.If the number of people is less than 100 people, this method is used.Given that the population of employees to be studied only amounted to 13 people, it is reasonable if all employees are sampled without the need to take a certain sample size.All bank employees received questionnaires as part of the data collection process.In addition, multiple linear regression was used in the data analysis technique along with validity and reliability checks.

RESULTS
The first step taken in data collection is to conduct a validity test with the following results:

Validity Test Results
Each variable used in this study will be tested for validity; each variable has 30 questions that participants must respond to.The following table shows the findings of the validity testing based on the analysis that has been conducted: Based on the criteria where rcount is greater than rtable in this study of 0.361, the table above shows that the financial inclusion variable has valid criteria for all question items.This shows that each question on the financial inclusion variable is reliable and can be practiced in research.Based on the criteria where rcount is greater than rtable in this study of 0.361, the table above shows that the financial performance variable has valid criteria for all questions.This shows that each question of the financial performance variable is reliable and can be practiced in research.

Reliability Test Results
The reliability test is used to determine whether the questionnaire made can be trusted or not.The method is called Combach Alpha.The results of the reliability test can be seen in the following table based on the analysis that has been done: Basis for decision making: Alpha >  = Reliabel Alpha <  = Tidak Reliabel Tabel 4.

Normalized Test Results
The purpose of the data normality test is to determine whether the dependent and independent variables in the regression model are normally distributed or not.Regression fulfills the assumption of normality if the data is spread around the diagonal line and moves in the direction of the diagonal line.. 6 | Ummi Itiah Nasution, Kamilah K, Nur Ahmadi Bi Rahmani; The Influence Of Financial Inclusion And Financial Literacy On ...

Tabel 7. Uji Normalis
Basis for decision making: • If the Sig value> 0.05, then the residual value is normally distributed • If the Sig value <0.05, then the residual value is not normally distributed The data in the research regression model tends to be normal because each variable> 0.05, from the table above it can be concluded that the regression line model is in accordance with the assumptions previously stated.

Multicollinearity Test Results
The purpose of the multicollinearity test is to determine whether there is a significant correlation between the independent variables and the regression model.This is determined by checking the variance inflation factor (VIF) value which should not be greater than 10.00.Basis for decision making: 1) Looking at the Tolerance value: if the Tolerance value is greater than> 0.01, it means that there is no Multicollinearity.2) Looking at the VIF value: if the VIF value is smaller than < 10.00, it means that there is no Multicollinearity.There is no multicollinearity in the independent variables because the Financial Inclusion and Financial Literacy variables have VIF values that are within the tolerance limits found.

The results of the t test (persial)
Individual testing of the independent variables on the dependent variable to see the meaning of each multiple regression coefficient used the t test..On the effect of financial inclusion on financial performance, from the t test table data above, it can be seen that the value of obtaining coefficients: ℎ = 2.256,  = 2.131, in the table above there is an effect of financial inclusion on financial performance by obtaining: a) The value of ℎ 2.256 with degrees of freedom (dk) n-2 = 13-2 = 11 is 2.131, thus the decision-making criteria are: the magnitude of ℎ 2.256 >  2.131.b) The sig value of financial inclusion is 0.041 <0.05, so based on the provisions of the persial test it can be concluded that the null hypothesis (1) is rejected and (1) is accepted, which means that financial inclusion has a persial effect on financial performance.
Meanwhile, on the effect of financial literacy on financial performance, from the t test table data above, it can be seen that the value of obtaining coefficients: ℎ = 2.486,  = 2.131.In the table above, there is an effect of financial literacy on financial performance by obtaining: a) The value of ℎ 2.486 with degrees of freedom (dk) n-2 = 13-2 = 11 is 2.131, thus the decision-making criteria are: the magnitude of ℎ 2.486 >  2.131.b) The sig value of financial literacy is 0.026 <0.05 because the value is less than 5% (0.05), so based on the provisions of the persial test it can be concluded that the null hypothesis (1) is rejected and (1) is accepted, which means that financial literacy affects financial performance: With the obtained Fcount value of 9.549> Ftable 3.74 with a sig probability of 0.002 <0.05 which shows Ho2 is rejected and Ha2 is accepted, so from the table above it can be concluded that there is a joint influence of financial inclusion and financial literacy on financial performance.
