Introduction

 This project will provide for computerization of a small enterprise
whose main goal is to keep track on their inventory and billing
process and wants to change from paper based transaction to
computerized transaction.
 The mobile store management will make storing of the stock
records, employee records, purchase information, and customer
information a lot easier. The supplier and sales information in the
database will automatically generate bills when the customer buys
the mobile. The bill history can be retrieved promptly. And reports
will be generated based on different criteria’s.
 The product could be implemented in an average sized
organization, which will not be very keen on spending loads of
money on ledgers. Whereas our product will greatly reduce the
running by using common and cheap office items like database and
desktop application. And also there is no requirement to store
books or accounts. The data is directly stored in the database in the
hard disk of the PC.
 The Mobile Store Management System is software which can
become the backbone for a billing and inventory system for small
organizations. This software provides an uncomplicated system to
run mobile stores. This application could be very useful to small
organizations. This application is inspired from current pen and
paper based store management systems. It will provide an easy and
attractive interface so that the user can easily manage and utilize
the application.
 The Mobile Store Management System is developed for desktop
systems to facilitate mobile shop owners’ management of customer
details and inventory data, which will include mobile phones and
accessories. It can be used efficiently for physically separated
shops in different locations. This software will provide in a simple
and easy to operate user interface, which can be managed by any
 user without having prior in-depth knowledge of the computer
system. One can use this software to get a sales report.
Administrators can pull data, from any location from the server.
This software is a complete package for small organizations which
will allow them to keep track of their sales and inventory, and
provide a computerized billing system.
 There are various applications with more complex implementation
and features available in the market, but they are generally very
expensive. Therefore, creating an application with the basic
requirement of low cost is essential for small organizations. This
application will allow stores to manage customer details, keep
inventory of all products and purchase information, in a very
simple way, using a state-of the-art software application.

Need of Store Management System

 In today’s market, retailers and wholesale outlets should quickly

adapt to the ever-changing technology to minimize overhead,
lower cost of operation, and help to stay competitive. Everybody
needs software, which can facilitate store operations and make
their day-today lives much easier. Mobile Store Management
System is application software designed to take advantage of
today’s technology and reduce or avoid the burden of storing data
on paper and in files. This facilitates moving purchase, sales, and

customer information, as well as supplier and company data, from
paper to digital media on a secured server. Sales and purchase bills
can be generated as needed.
 Each store has an option to store their data on one remote central
database server. This will also allow stores to access information
from other partner stores. This would in turn lead to information
sharing, so that all the stores are aware of each other’s current
inventory. It will be useful when ordering new purchases to avoid
overstocking.
 This software application is targeted for small and medium retail
stores who want to transform their paper- based inventory, sales,
and procurement system to a computer- based system. This is an
inexpensive and easy-to-use software application for easy
transition to digital media. Also, this system is simple to install and
maintain in PC/Laptops, thus avoiding huge investments on
enterprise or other types of servers. Currently, there is only one
user for this application, who will also be the administrator. The
system administrator will have complete access to the system
configuration and data. The system administrator will also have
access to other partner stores. The benefits drawn from the system
and low cost for installation and maintenance come as a huge
advantage.

 Choice of Methodology

Model-Waterfall Model:
 The Waterfall Model was the first Process Model to be introduced. It is also
referred to as a linear-sequential life cycle model. It is very simple to understand
and use. In a waterfall model, each phase must be completed before the next phase
can begin and there is no overlapping in the phases.
 The Waterfall model is the earliest SDLC approach that was used for software
development.
 The waterfall Model illustrates the software development process in a linear
sequential flow. This means that any phase in the development process begins only
if the previous phase is complete. In this waterfall model, the phases do not overlap.

Waterfall Model - Design

 Waterfall approach was first SDLC Model to be used widely in Software
Engineering to ensure success of the project. In "The Waterfall"
approach, the whole process of software development is divided into
separate phases. In this Waterfall model, typically, the outcome of one
phase acts as the input for the next phase sequentially.
 The following illustration is a representation of the different phases of the
Waterfall Model.
The sequential phases in Waterfall model are −
 Requirement Gathering and analysis − All possible requirements of
the system to be developed are captured in this phase and documented in
a requirement specification document.
 System Design − the requirement specifications from first phase are
studied in this phase and the system design is prepared. This system
design helps in specifying hardware and system requirements and helps
in defining the overall system architecture.
 Implementation − with inputs from the system design, the system is first
developed in small programs called units, which are integrated in the next
phase. Each unit is developed and tested for its functionality, which is
referred to as Unit Testing.
 Integration and Testing − All the units developed in the implementation
phase are integrated into a system after testing of each unit. Post
integration the entire system is tested for any faults and failures.
 Deployment of system − Once the functional and non-functional testing is done;
the product is deployed in the customer environment or released into the market.
 Maintenance − There are some issues which come up in the client
environment. To fix those issues, patches are released. Also to enhance
the product some better versions are released. Maintenance is done to
deliver these changes in the customer environment.
 All these phases are cascaded to each other in which progress is seen as
flowing steadily downwards (like a waterfall) through the phases. The
next phase is started only after the defined set of goals are achieved for
previous phase and it is signed off, so the name "Waterfall Model". In
this model, phases do not overlap.

Waterfall Model - Application

 Every software developed is different and requires a suitable SDLC
approach to be followed based on the internal and external factors. Some
situations where the use of Waterfall model is most appropriate are − 1-
Requirements are very well documented, clear and fixed.
2-Product definition is stable.
3-Technology is understood and is not dynamic.
4-There are no ambiguous requirements.
5-Ample resources with required expertise are available to support the
product.
6-The project is short.

Advantages of store management system

 Shopping convenience:
A departmental store enables the customers to purchase all their requirement under
one roof and the customers need not go from one shop to another for making
purchases. This provides great convenience to the customers and also saves their
time and labor.

 Wide Choice:
The departmental store keeps a large variety of products and hence offers an
opportunity to the customers to select goods of their liking from a large stock
of goods of different qualities, brands, designs, colors, styles, etc.

 Economies of large scale:

Departmental stores, being large-scale establishments, enjoy all the
economies and benefits of large-scale organizations. This reduces their costs
and increases the profits.

 Liberal services:
They provide many unique services to their customers like free home
delivery, accepting telephone orders, restaurants, recreational facilities,
reading rooms, after-sale service, etc. Some of the stores even offer credit
facilities to their customers.

 Central Location:
A departmental store is generally located in the important central place of a
city. It is, therefore, easily accessible to the customers.
 Economy and Advertising:
The advertisement of one department is the advertisement of the other
departments also. A customer who enters a departmental store to purchase
some goods is induced to buy some other goods also displayed in the store.
Hence, one department advertises for the other. Moreover, a departmental
store pan advertises on a large scale thus saving in advertising costs.

 Use of Specialized Services:

The departmental stores can afford to employ specialists with expert
knowledge to perform various functions. This saves in many costs, attracts
customers and increases the sales and profits.

 Large Volume of Sales:

Due to the various facilities provided by the departmental stores, they make
larger sales. Large turnover further reduces the selling cost per unit on one
hand and increases the profit on the other.

Disadvantages of Store Management System

 Distance:
As the departmental stores are generally located in the central places,
people living at a distance cannot take advantage of the departmental
stores.

 High Cost of Operation:

The cost of doing business is very high in case of departmental stores as
they have to pay high rents, salaries to staff and spend much on various
facilities provided to the customers.

 Higher Prices:
Due to high costs of operation and establishment, the prices of
commodities in departmental stores are comparatively high. Thus, only
the rich people can afford to take advantage of the departmental stores.

 Difficult to Establish:
The departmental stores require a large amount of initial capital
investment and a number of specialized persons for their establishment.

 Absence of Personal Contact:

The owners of the departmental stores cannot make personal contact
with the customers. The sales are made by the employees who may not
care for the customers’ satisfaction.

 Lack of Co-ordination:
There is a tendency of developing unhealthy competition between the
departments. The control and effective supervision of various
departments is also difficult to exercise.
 Conclusion

 In this dissertation we have studied different management systems

used during evaluation and presented a low cost store management
system application with the help of that study. A survey was also
conducted to get current needs of small businesses which could be
willing to migrate to the Mobile Store Management System
application. The implementation of this system as a single solution for
different businesses was challenging.
 I have learned a lot about document writing during this progression.
The process of writing thesis document, which is a research paper,
was not familiar to me, but of great benefit. The application Mobile
Store Management System is created to help small businesses to
transfer their records from paper-based system to computerized
system, even with a low budget. At the same time, the requirements of
a basic store have been taken care of, and a few features that can make
the application easier to use and easy to understand to the user with
beginner level knowledge of computers have been added.
 I hope that Mobile Store Management System fulfills all basic
requirements for stores with intention of transferring to computerized
billing and inventory system. The survey of real world small
businesses helped me to understand current practice, and possible
needs.
