Introduction
• It is easy to manage mini markets as the customers entering such stores are less and the items in the inventory too is less. Even with few human resource deployment and paper works, small supermarkets or mini-markets can be effectively managed. But, the case is no so with big supermarkets with tens of thousands of items in various inventories and high traffic flow of customers and retailers.
• Gone are those days when a shop owner used to manage all his sales and accounts on paper. This job is now performed with these management tools which not only record the sales but also notify the retailer about the items low in stock.
• The reordering of items is also provided by Super Market System. It has an interface to communicate with vendors providing the required goods.
• Now let me tell you what happens when the reordered items reach the warehouse. The item is added into the warehouse by reading its bar code through a bar-code scanner and its quantity is updated into the system.
• World supermarket is a web-based application implemented in VB.NET using SQL as the database. This project is targeted for mainly big supermarkets and particularly aims at automation of various management procedures such as managing sales and purchases, stock details, etc. All the details and records in the supermarket are maintained in a centralized database. This software is developed using vb.net.
• This is useful software for vehicle trading system for Super market details. Although they can’t afford to buy expensive software for high maintenance fee. It provides you the ability to manage different type of item with price allow you to add new again users.
Existing System
•
The
existing system is very paper based in small as well as medium supermarkets.
Even though the paper work and manpower requirement is less, the existing
system is not very economical for these markets. Relevant and irrelevant
information are entered and stored in the same place, which is very clumsy and
untidy process.
•
In
case of big supermarkets, the existing system is computerized to some extent,
but it is not fully automated to cover all the aspects of the supermarket. The
data entry, storing, and retrieval procedure is very inefficient. Further,
there are chances of data misplacement and wrong data entry. The system is
still very insecure and inflexible to adapt to user requirements.
Drawbacks
•
Food
Supermarket requires huge financial resources.
•
It
is normally situated at a long distance from the residential localities.
•
There
is lack of personal attention.
•
Supermarket
does not provide various services such as free home delivery, personal
guidance, and credit facility and after sale service.
•
It
faces the problem of coordinating activities of various sections of the market.
•
It
requires large and extensive premises.
•
Goods
which require explanation by salesmen cannot be sold in such markets.
Advantages
•
It reduces the time and manpower required for
management and maintenance of different task.
•
It reduces the paper work in existing system, hence
it is economical and efficient.
•
With this system, customers get quality of service;
customers can even give feedback which can be stored in the database.
•
As the entire system is fully computerized, records
of daily and monthly purchases and sales can be recorded and analyzed.
•
This system is very secure, user-friendly, and
reliable.
Project input output forms
Conclusion
•
The
proposed supermarket management system is very useful for big supermarkets as
well as small ones to manage their inventories and records of purchases and
sales.
•
New features and modules can be easily added
into the system, so the project is very flexible and can adapt to the
requirements of the supermarket and its users.
