Title
INVENTORY SYSTEM FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
Abstract
Inventory tracking is a critical challenge for small businesses, often relying on error-prone manual processes and lacking real-time visibility. This project proposes the development of a web-based inventory management system tailored for small and mid-sized businesses, aimed at streamlining stock control, sales tracking, and performance monitoring.
The system is designed as a full-stack application using React.js for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, and SQLite as the database. Core features include user authentication with role-based access, product and stock management, real-time transaction logging, sales tracking, and low-stock alerts. Backend logic is exposed via RESTful APIs, secured using JSON Web Tokens (JWT), and connected to a responsive user interface for efficient day-to-day usage.
The final version of the system is expected to provide full visibility into stock levels and sales performance, allowing admins and staff to carry out inventory tasks easily and securely. Features such as an analytics dashboard and a responsive design are planned to support future scalability and usability. The solution ultimately aims to reduce manual workload, minimize stock-related errors, and support data-driven decision-making in everyday business operations.
