Introduction
inventory tracking empowers companies to make informed decisions regarding their stock,
leading to enhanced operational efficiency, accurate and prompt inventory data, and improved
decision-making and planning. Adopting technology in inventory management has been shown
to increase efficiency and decrease costs by enabling companies to manage their inventories
more effectively. By reducing the time spent on allocating goods, companies can manage their
The proponents aim to improve the current manual inventory process of the selected
company by automating its sales, inventory, and expense management systems. The manual
inventory process is associated with slower order processing, higher labor costs, and higher
inventory write-offs. Automating the system will enhance the process, leading to increased
productivity, improved work quality, accurate records, and higher sales. Moreover, it will reduce
overhead and labor expenses. The rationale behind choosing a sales, inventory, and expense
management system as the subject of the study is to introduce the company to the potential
benefits of technology and bring about positive changes that will help them improve their
operations.

On many occasions the store encounter problems such as; difficulties in tracking stock levels
arises when relying on manual inventory processes, the accuracy of inventory records may be at
risk and potential losses may occur due to unreliable employees, dissatisfied customers and
stockouts can result from poor inventory management, inaccurate order fulfillment may occur
when employees do not have access to up-to-date stock information and lastly when employees
are required to manually rewrite transactions in a record book, with the order receipt being the
Since the business still uses an actual inventory book by manually indicating and
recording stocks, this task can be difficult and may be put at risk because some of the employees
are unreliable when it comes to monetary and inventory responsibilities. Because of this,
products and sales are at risk. There are also instances where customers inquire about a specific
product only to find out that it is out of stock because of poor inventory management. The sales
staff may not think about the current stocks of some items while listing the order, and it can
affect the operation of the store if not monitored. The only record of the transaction they have is
the order receipt. And it should be manually re-written in a record book by the employee. But
when the company uses the system that the researchers are making then the client can manage
and effectively track the business products and supplies. To keep records of purchases, sales, and
how much the business has on hand. It lets the client follow the inventory process through the
company. The client (store manager or employee) can effectively work on sales inventory and
expense tasks through the system. The speed and accuracy of retrieving information can be
remarkably quicker to keep in touch with the number of products and supplies on hand.
The researchers chose sales inventory and expense management system as our study
material because we believe in the phrase "technology makes life easier". The researchers want
to help our chosen company by automating their current manual inventory process that will allow
them to complete tasks much more quickly and easily. Slower order processing, higher labor
costs, and higher inventory write-offs are only some of the disadvantages of the manual
inventory process. Making their inventory system automated will improve the process and
accuracy of their inventory and expense systems and will also boost the company’s productivity,
work quality, and sales, reduce overhead costs, and lower labor costs as well. That is why the
researchers chose sales inventory and expense management system as our study material because
we want to bring change to the company and introduce them to the capabilities of technology,
