Inventory Management Software 1

 Inventory Management Software
Overview:
The Inventory Management Software developed in C serves as a robust solution for
efficiently managing inventory operations within educational institutions. It provides a
comprehensive set of features to streamline inventory management processes, ensuring
accurate tracking of product quantities, prices, and stock levels.

Features:
 Add Product: Enables users to add new products to the inventory, including specifying
product name, quantity, and price.
 View Products: Allows users to view the list of all products in the inventory, along with
their respective quantities and prices.

 Search Product: Facilitates searching for specific products by name, providing quick access
to product details.

 Update Quantity: Enables users to update the quantity of existing products in the inventory.

 Update Price: Allows users to update the price of existing products in the inventory.

 Delete Product: Provides functionality to delete products from the inventory, removing them
from the system.

 Display Inventory Value: Calculates and displays the total value of the inventory based on
product quantities and prices.

 Display Low Stock Products: Identifies and displays products with low stock levels,
enabling proactive management of inventory replenishment.

 Sort Products: Allows users to sort products by name or quantity, facilitating better
organization and management of the inventory.

 Exit: Provides an option to exit the software, ending the inventory management session.

Implementation:
● The software is implemented in C programming language, utilizing arrays to store
product information such as names, quantities, and prices.

● A menu-driven approach is adopted to provide users with a user-friendly interface for

interacting with the software.

● Input validation is implemented to ensure the integrity of user inputs and prevent errors
during data entry.

● Sorting algorithms such as bubble sort and selection sort are utilized for sorting products
by name or quantity.

● The software employs modular design principles, with each feature encapsulated within
its own function for better code organization and readability.

Limitations and Future Improvements:

The software's fixed capacity and basic error handling pose limitations. Improvements like
dynamic memory management, enhanced error handling, and support for multi-user
access can enhance scalability and robustness. Further advancements in reporting
capabilities, GUI development, database integration, barcode scanning, and export/import
functionality would improve usability, data management, and efficiency.
