Introduction

Inventory Management System was developed for anyone who needs a simple and

easy way to keep track of their inventory.

Inventory is basically the total amount of goods and materials held in stock by a

factory, store and other business. An inventory system is a process whereby a

business keeps track of the goods and material it has available. Todays

competitive environment is forcing companies to optimize the procurementprocesses and inventory levels while at the same time ensure accuracy of controls

and implementation of standard procedures for the flow of materials. However, in

the absence of appropriate systems and information infrastructure, companies are

finding it difficult to achieve smooth and efficient.

Nowadays each and every organization has a computerized system. These systems

must be secure, efficient, and also economical. So, in this project we are trying to

make inventory management system which will help employees to keep records in

a systematic way, provide easy recovery of errors, have an overall end user highsubjective satisfaction, produce report about the inventory and stock currently

available in the department in automatic way and help them in decision making.

From this application only the administrative level staff can read, insert, update

and delete a record or details of inventory and users. Other staff only view the

information about inventory.

Our project is Inventory Management System. Our project was prepared for our

Computer science department. This system maintains the details of latestequipments, details of equipment use in lab, discard and repair equipment details

and loan details. When new equipment enters our lab, we check that equipment is

main (lab, office, furniture) equipments or other (consumable, stationary,

maintenance) equipments.

If that equipment is main, when we select that equipment in our system,

automatically fill new identification number, new folio number and date. If that

equipment is other, when we select that equipment and then select issued,

automatically fill the increased balance or we select received, automatically fill the

decreased balance in our system.

We can search main and other equipments. If we search main equipment, we can

see these (Articles, Identification number, folio number, name of supplier, date,

unit price, officer in charge and remarks) details. If search other equipment, we can

see these (article, date, quality, balance, action) details. We maintain two kinds of

loan details those are loan issue and loan taken. We can add and edit details in both

categories. We can see these (articles, identification number, status, return date,

department) details in both categories.

Features

We can divide the inventory into two main categories.

1. Main equipmentThere are three categories of property that will be recorded, each with a life

expectancy of more than two years which have the unique inventory

identification no.

a. Office equipment.b. Lab equipment.c. Furniture.

When we adding main equipment system will automatically generates the

identification no.

2. Other equipmentThere are three categories of property that will be recorded, each with a life

expectancy of less than two years.

a. Stationary.b. Maintenance.c. Consumables.

When we adding or issuing the other equipment, system will automatically

generates the balance. So it reduces the unexpected shortages of critical

items and unnecessary purchases (orders) of items already on hand.

Managing obtained Loan detail

The one department can issue an item to another department by a loan, this

process is called loan issued.

Also one department can received an item from another department, this

process is called loan taken.

This system provides easy way to keep track of the inventory loan details.

So it reduces the undetected theft or loss.

Managing the details of Removed Item

When a department has property it wants to remove (as either scrap or

surplus), the Unserviceable Articles form must be completed by the data

entry officer and forwarded to the administration branch.

Serviceable & should be sold.

Unserviceable & should be destroyed.

Repairable & should be preserved.

The data entry officer can remove the item when he received the

approval of removal from technical evaluation committee.

This system provides easy way to keep track of the remove inventory details.

So it reduces the hazardous working condition to appropriate personnel and

easy to identifying surplus or underutilized items and for reporting items that

require repair.

User Authentication

The system will provide functionality to allow the user to log in to the

system with a username and password. It is implemented as a very securesystem to control unauthorized access through encrypted password. Only the

Data entry officer can insert, edit and delete inventory and user details.Our

system use CAPTCHA to check if the person registering is a real live human

being as opposed to a computer program attempting to spam the site.

Our system facilitates the search through different type of queries. So it is

easy to identify inventory through id no or type.

Developer page

Technologies

This project has been designed by using the CSS templates. This is help to design

our interfaces and also help Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5 and HTML 5. PHP have

been used to develop the coding in our system. SQL server is used to create

database as the back end for this system.

Tables

Our database contains eleven tables for our system.

Users :

This table consists of some attributes such as user id, first name, last name, email,

username, password and user level. These details help to create an account and

login the system.

Lab equipments (le), Office equipments (oe), Furniture (fu) :

This table consists of some attributes such as Articles, Identification number, folio

number, name of supplier, date, unit price, officer in charge and remarks. le tableuses to lab equipments details, . oe table uses to office equipments details and . fu

table uses to furniture details.

Consumable (cons), Stationary (sta), Maintenance (mai) :

This table consists of some attributes such as id, item, number, action, date and

balance. Cons table uses to consumable details, sta table uses to stationary details

and mai table uses to maintenance details.

Loan issue :

This table consists of some attributes such as loan id, article, id, issued date, issued

by, received by, received department, status, return date and remarks. This table

helps to add, edit and show the issued items.

Loan taken :

This table consists of some attributes such as loan id, article, id, issued department,

received date, received by, status, return date and remarks. This table helps to add,

edit and show the taken items.

Remove :

This table consists of some attributes such as id number, article, reason, date and

authorized by. These details help to remove, view and show the individual articles.

Current Status :

This table consists of some attributes such as id number, status( in, issued,

removed ) and location. These details help to track the current status and locationof the equipments.
