Southbest Sales Center is a hardware store that sells a variety of
construction supplies. Ever since it was established in 2002, Southbest Sales
Center has been employing the manual process of keeping track of its inventory.
The manual inventory system can hardly keep up with the thousands of inventory
that Southbest Sales Center manages. Moreover, the growing number of
purchases and sales to record every transaction, it was getting difficult to
manage. Physical count is the only way to assess the number of inventory
wherein it takes three to five days to finish the inventory count. If the owner
wished to know an accurate inventory count, it would be necessary to close the
store for the day. In connection with this, the opportunity cost which is the income
that would have been earned if it didnt close the store will be gone.

iv

To solve this problem of Southbest Sales Center, the researchers decided
to come up with a computerized inventory system that is designed to simplify the
process of keeping track of inventory count. This is to help the owner ease the
burden of manually counting inventories annually.
The development of Computerized Inventory System for Southbest Sales
Center involves the reviewing and analyzing of different concepts of system
analysis and design. Series of interviews conducted with the owner of the
hardware store became the primary source of information for the study to obtain
valid and accurate data. On the other hand, secondary data were collected from
printed materials like research studies, related books, and internet sources.
The research design method used in the study is the Descriptive Method
which is the combination of both qualitative and quantitative method. Microsoft
Visual Basic 6.0 was used in programming the proposed system. The study was
conducted in a period of three months, from the planning of the system to design
up to the finalization of the paper and program interface itself.
