(2) Identify each document by title, report number (if applicable), date, and
publishing organization
(3) Specify the sources from which the references can be obtained.
This information can be provided by reference to an appendix or to another document. If
your application uses specific protocols or RFCs, then reference them here so designers
know where to find them.

1.5 Overview
This SRS consists of three sections. First one is introductory about the system over all.
Second subsection about general factors and an overview of this SRS explain general
constraints of system under which would be developed. Third subsection of this SRS is
all about detailed description of the system in the form of functional and non-functional
requirements. And at the end of the third subsection a use case diagram represent
structure of the system.

2. The Overall Description

Making this software first achievement is manage sales data. Many number of items
available at store and which item from these have to be sold out, then stock updated after
sales automatically. In this system keep track of any item thats stock become zero,
system would inform to manager automatically.

Project Title

2.1 Product Perspective

This system (HASMS) is totally independent and a stand-alone system. This system is
not a component of another large system. It is self-contained system. Managing sales
system, stock system and purchasing for further sales. This system would become a
reason of change of manual system into computerized system.
The following subsections describe how the software operates inside various constraints.
2.1.1 Operations
This (SRS) consists of the following operations:
(1) This SRS contain different diagrams for describing complete system functionality.
(2) Our system would contain main window from where you can choose different menus like
sales, stock etc.
(3) This system capable of updating record of sale.
(4) This SRS specify that our system would be generating bill of items to be sold.
(5) This SRS also describe that our system would be capable of delete record automatically
which to be sold.
(6) When Owner purchase stock then manager makes software entries.
(7) Our system would perform another functionality of checking current balance i.e. profit or
loss only by owner.
(8) Stock Controls by Owner, its access all up to owner.
(9) Sales controls by supplier/manager.
(10) Customer can be viewed and selected items.

2.1.2 Site Adaptation Requirements

In this section:
(1) Define the requirements for any data or initialization sequences that are specific to a
given site, mission, or operational mode
(2) Specify the site or mission-related features that should be modified to adapt the software
to a particular installation

If any modifications to the customers work area would be required by your system, then
document that here. For instance, A 100Kw backup generator and 10000 BTU air
conditioning system must be installed at the user site prior to software installation.
This could also be software-specific like, New data tables created for this system must
be installed on the companys existing DB server and populated prior to system
activation. Any equipment the customer would need to buy or any software setup that
needs to be done so that your system will install and operate correctly should be
documented here.

2.2 Product Functions

Provide a summary of the major functions that the software will perform. Sometimes the
function summary that is necessary for this part can be taken directly from the section of
the higher-level specification (if one exists) that allocates particular functions to the
software product.
For clarity:
(1) The functions should be organized in a way that makes the list of functions understandable to
the customer or to anyone else reading the document for the first time.
(2) Textual or graphic methods can be used to show the different functions and their
relationships. Such a diagram is not intended to show a design of a product but simply shows
the logical relationships among variables.

AH, finally the real meat of section 2. This describes the functionality of the system in
the language of the customer. What specifically does the system that will be designed
have to do? Drawings are good, but remember this is a description of what the system
needs to do, not how you are going to build it. (That comes in the design document).
2.3 User Characteristics
Describe those general characteristics of the intended users of the product including
educational level, experience, and technical expertise. Do not state specific requirements
but rather provide the reasons why certain specific requirements are later specified in
section 3.
What is it about your potential user base that will impact the design? Their experience
and comfort with technology will drive UI design. Other characteristics might actually
influence internal design of the system.
2.4 General Constraints
Provide a general description of any other items that will limit the developer's options.
These can include:
(1) Regulatory policies
(2) Hardware limitations (for example, signal timing requirements)
(3) Interface to other applications
(4) Parallel operation
(5) Audit functions
(6) Control functions
(7) Higher-order language requirements
(8) Signal handshake protocols (for example, XON-XOFF, ACK-NACK)
(9) Reliability requirements
(10) Criticality of the application
(11) Safety and security considerations
This section captures non-functional requirements in the customers language. A more
formal presentation of these will occur in section 3.

2.5 Assumptions and Dependencies

List each of the factors that affect the requirements stated in the SRS. These factors are
not design constraints on the software but are, rather, any changes to them that can affect
the requirements in the SRS. For example, an assumption might be that a specific
operating system would be available on the hardware designated for the software product.
If, in fact, the operating system were not available, the SRS would then have to change
accordingly.
This section is catch-all for everything else that might influence the design of the system
and that did not fit in any of the categories above.

3. Specific Requirements
This will be the largest and most important section of the SRS. The customer
requirements will be embodied within Section 2, but this section will give the Drequirements that are used to guide the projects software design, implementation, and
testing.
Each requirement in this section should be:
Correct
Traceable (both forward and backward to prior/future artifacts)
Unambiguous
Verifiable (i.e., testable)
Prioritized (with respect to importance and/or stability)
Complete
Consistent
Uniquely identifiable (usually via numbering like 3.4.5.6)
Attention should be paid to the carefully organize the requirements presented in this
section so that they may easily accessed and understood. Furthermore, this SRS is not
the software design document, therefore one should avoid the tendency to over-constrain
(and therefore design) the software project within this SRS.
3.1 External Interface Requirements
3.1.1 System Interfaces
This system (HASMS) have many interfaces. The system that we are going to develop
would be a user login page at first. When admin enter own id and password then he
allowed to use the system. After login into the software (HASMS) there will be a main
menu where you can choose the sales menu, stock information menu, and purchase stock
menu. Our main objective of this system is to maintain sales, purchase and also stock.
This system not provide the online interface. It provide you only a desktop system
interface.

3.1.2 Interfaces
Specify:
(1) The logical characteristics of each interface between the software product and its users.
(2) All the aspects of optimizing the interface with the person who must use the system

This is a description of how the system will interact with its users. Is there a GUI, a
command line or some other type of interface? Are there special interface requirements?
If you are designing for the general student population for instance, what is the impact of
ADA (American with Disabilities Act) on your interface?
3.1.3 Hardware Interfaces
Specify the logical characteristics of each interface between the software product and the
hardware components of the system. This includes configuration characteristics. It also
covers such matters as what devices are to be supported, how they are to be supported
and protocols. This is not a description of hardware requirements in the sense that This
program must run on a Mac with 64M of RAM. This section is for detailing the actual
hardware devices your application will interact with and control. For instance, if you are
controlling X10 type home devices, what is the interface to those devices? Designers
should be able to look at this and know what hardware they need to worry about in the
design. Many business type applications will have no hardware interfaces. If none, just
state The system has no hardware interface requirements If you just delete sections
that are not applicable, then readers do not know if: a. this does not apply or b. you
forgot to include the section in the first place.
3.1.4 Software Interfaces
Specify the use of other required software products and interfaces with other application
systems. For each required software product, include:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
(5)

Name
Mnemonic
Specification number
Version number
Source

For each interface, provide:

(1) Discussion of the purpose of the interfacing software as related to this software product
(2) Definition of the interface in terms of message content and format

Here we document the APIs, versions of software that we do not have to write, but that
our system has to use. For instance if your customer uses SQL Server 7 and you are
required to use that, then you need to specify i.e.
3.1.4.1 Microsoft SQL Server 7

The system must use SQL Server as its database component. Communication with the
DB is through ODBC connections. The system must provide SQL data table definitions
to be provided to the company DBA for setup.

Project Title

A key point to remember is that you do NOT want to specify software here that you think
would be good to use. This is only for customer-specified systems that you have to
interact with. Choosing SQL Server 7 as a DB without a customer requirement is a
Design choice, not a requirement. This is a subtle but important point to writing good
requirements and not over-constraining the design.
3.1.5 Communications Interfaces
Specify the various interfaces to communications such as local network protocols, etc.
These are protocols you will need to directly interact with. If you happen to use web
services transparently to your application then do not list it here. If you are using a
custom protocol to communicate between systems, then document that protocol here so
designers know what to design. If it is a standard protocol, you can reference an existing
document or RFC.
3.2 Functional Requirements
This section describes specific features of the software project. If desired, some
requirements may be specified in the use-case format and listed in the Use Cases Section.
3.2.1 <Functional Requirement or Feature #1>
3.2.1.1 Introduction

3.5.3 Reliability / Availability

These requirements reliability and availability totally about system state, if our
system would be down then its recovery would be in two minutes.

3.5.4 Security
To protect the system from unauthorized users, we set the username and password.
If user name and password will be incorrect then user cant access system.

3.5.5 Maintainability
Maintainability also called flexibility.
3.5.5.1 Maximum bug rate
There will be a maximum time of 1 bug in 1/100 part of one second.
3.5.5.2 Maximum time to repair
If any error and bugs occur in our system, there will be sufficient time to remove it.

3.5.6 Supportability
3.5.6.1 Naming convention
Coding of all project in our software written as specified naming convention.
3.5.6.2 Coding standards
All code in this system will be written by the GNU General Purpose License.

3.7 Logical Database Requirements
This section specifies the logical requirements for any information that is to be placed
into a database. This may include:

Types of information used by various functions

Frequency of use
Accessing capabilities
Data entities and their relationships
Integrity constraints
Data retention requirements

If the customer provided you with data models, those can be presented here. ER
diagrams (or static class diagrams) can be useful here to show complex data relationships.
Remember a diagram is worth a thousand words of confusing text.

3.8 Design Constraints

Specify design constraints that can be imposed by other standards, hardware limitations,
etc.
3.8.1 Standards Compliance
Specify the requirements derived from existing standards or regulations. They might
include:
(1) Report format
(2) Data naming
(3) Accounting procedures
(4) Audit Tracing
For example, this could specify the requirement for software to trace processing activity.
Such traces are needed for some applications to meet minimum regulatory or financial
standards. An audit trace requirement may, for example, state that all changes to a
payroll database must be recorded in a trace file with before and after values.

4. Analysis Models:
