    The key takeaways from the document are that it discusses database design, different data models like hierarchical, network and relational models, components of an inventory management system including administrator details, transactions, reports and Microsoft VB6.0 is used as the front-end tool.

    The different data models discussed are the hierarchical model, network model and relational model.

    The main components of the inventory management system are administrator details, opening stock, item details, customer information, supplier information, stock details, transactions including sales, returns, purchases, payments; and reports.

    INTRODUCTION 1.1 Data Base Design


    Dept, of Computer Science, 2007-08 2

    Chapter 1 Introduction Data base designing is the process of developing the conceptual model of data. It is the definition of the entire information content of the organization and it specifies a relationship between data. This model is used to group data into a number of tables. The data base, which uses tables for the storage of data, is the relational data base management system. It can perform several basic operations. Crate or delete table. Add, update, delete or insert tuples. Copy data from one table into another. Retrieve or query a table, tuple or an attribute. Prints recognize or read a table or tuple. Join or combine table based on value in a table.

    For designing table the analyst must decide on the fields of the tables, type of the field its length default value etc for this firstly, the entity and relationship must be identified. Secondly their attribute must be specified.

    1.2 Data Base Management System


    The database management system is the software that handles all access to the database. When a user issues an access request, using some particular SQL Query, the DBMS intercepts the request and analyzes it. The DBMS also executes the necessary operation on the stored database. Some more functions given below: Data Definition. Data Manipulation. Data Security and Integrity Data Recovery and concurrency. Data Dictionary.

    Database technology defines the data model as one of the three traditional forms for organization of data: Dept, of Computer Science, 2007-08 3

    Chapter 1 Introduction Hierarchical Model. Network Model. Relational Model.

    1.3 Microsoft VB 6.0 The Visual part refers to the method used to create the graphical user interface (GUI) rather than writing numerous lines of code to describe the appearance and location of interface elements. You simply drag and drop rebuild objects into place on screen. The Basics part refers to the BASIC (Beginners All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) language, a language used by most programmers than any other language in the history of computing. Visual Basic language has evolved from the original BASIC language and now contains several hundred statements, functions and keywords, many of which relate directly to windows GUI, beginners can create useful application by learning just a few of the keywords, yet the power of the language allows professionals to accomplish anything that can be accomplished using other windows programming language. Visual Basic 6.0 is being used as front-end tool for the development of this project. Microsoft Visual Basic is an application development environment for MS WINDOWS. It enables us to write faster application programs.

    1.4 Introduction to Oracle

    All data base management systems (that is oracle is a DBMS) allow users to create containers for data storage and management. This containers are called, cells the minimum information that has to be given to oracle for a suitable container to be constructed which can hold free form human data is The cell name The cell length 4

    Dept, of Computer Science, 2007-08

    Chapter 1 Introduction The type of the Data that can be placed in to the cell. Cell name When we wish to view the contents of a cell later all we need to do is tell the programming environment, the cell name. The programming environment is intelligent enough to fetch for us contents of the cell rather than the cell itself. Cell Length. This is the manner the Rigidize free form human data. We create a container of a pre-determined length into which we will store free form human data for management. If we map this to the example on names we were looking at earlier. This automatically put a limit on the length of the persons name that we can hold in the container. Cell data type As we had a look earlier human data is mainly of two types character or number. If numbers then we can have whole numbers or floats. We would then have to inform the programming environment which is created the cell for us. What kind of data we will have to store in this cell when it is being used. The simplest reason being that we would have to separate character and numbers data type. Imputer Tryon Dray Amalgam

    1.5 Introduction to Project Master:- It keeps the information about administrator, opening stock, Item details, customer information, supplier information, stock details ,closing stock. 1)Administrator Dept, of Computer Science, 2007-08 5

    Chapter 1 Introduction 2)Opening stock 3)Item information 4)Customer information 5)Supplier information 6)Stock details Transactions:- It keeps the information about stationary sold, sales return, purchase order made, purchase returns, supplier payment, Customer receipts and etc. 1)Sales 2)Sales return 3)Purchase 4)Purchase returns 5)Supplier Payment 6)Customer receipt Reports:- The data entered is processed and various report are generated to provide information about the closing stock. The report generated meet the statutory requirements or management information requirements for efficient functioning of the stationatry. It keeps the information about sales made between two dates, sales returns made between two dates, In turn sales also made by cash and credit, purchase report, sales reports, customer reports, stock reports and many more. Exit:- This option enables the user to exit the software to desktop. The primary key in every table can be used to access any particular record.

    In our Project, the GUI is user-friendly and has a simple yet appealing design. 1.6 System Specification Dept, of Computer Science, 2007-08 6
