of providing purchase and management service through
World Wide Web. It is an application that makes use of the
web multiple-tier client/server architecture [3].

3 METHODOLOGY

3.1 Method
The C# programming language (Visual Studio) and
Microsoft SQL Server were used to create this desktop
application.

The Visual Studio IDE (integrated development

environment) is a piece of software that allows
programmers to write and edit code. Its user interface is
used to edit, debug, and build code in software
development. Visual Studio comes with a code editor that
supports IntelliSense (code completion) and code
refactoring. The integrated debugger can be used as both a
source-level and a machine-level debugger. A code
profiler, a designer for creating GUI applications, a web
designer, a class designer, and a database schema designer
are among the other built-in tools.

In SQL Server, a database is made up of a series of tables

that each store a specific set of structured data. A table is
made up of rows, which are also known as records or
tuples, and columns, which are also known as attributes.
Each column in the table is intended to hold a specific type
of data.

The flowcharts that correspond to the functionalities in the

proposed system are shown here.
