Project Requirement Document: Complex Inventory Management System

Project Overview
The Complex Inventory Management System (CIMS) is designed to manage product inventories for a retail business.
It allows users to track stock levels, manage suppliers, and automate reorder processes. Certain default values and
fields will be populated on the frontend based on user selections and predefined business logic.
Technologies
• Frontend: React.js
• Backend: Node.js with Express
• Database: MySQL
Functional Requirements
1. User Authentication
• Description: Users must log in to access the inventory management features.
2. Product Management
• Description: Users can add, update, delete, and view products.
Table: products

2.1 Adding a Product


• Input Fields:
o Product Name
o SKU
o Quantity (default: 0 if not provided)
o Reorder Level (default: 10 if not provided)
o Price
• Logic:
o When a user selects a product category, the reorder_level is set based on predefined business logic
(e.g., 10% of average monthly sales for that category).
o If the quantity is not provided, it defaults to 0.

3. Supplier Management
• Description: Users can manage suppliers for the products.
Table: suppliers

3.1 Adding a Supplier


• Input Fields:
o Supplier Name
o Contact Information (default: "Not provided" if left empty)
• Logic:
o When adding a supplier, if the contact information is not provided, it defaults to "Not provided".
4. Inventory Overview
• Description: Users can view all products along with their stock status.
• Logic:
o A color-coded status indicator is shown based on the product quantity:
▪ Green: In stock (quantity > reorder_level)
▪ Yellow: Low stock (quantity ≤ reorder_level)
▪ Red: Out of stock (quantity = 0)
5. Automated Reorder Alerts
• Description: The system automatically alerts users when stock levels fall below the reorder level.
• Logic:
o Use a cron job on the backend to check the stock levels of products daily. If a product's quantity is at
or below its reorder level, send an alert to the user.

Implementation Logic
Backend (Node.js)
1. Setup Express Server:
o Connect to MySQL using mysql2.
2. API Endpoints:
o POST /api/login: User authentication.
o GET /api/products: Get all products.
o POST /api/products: Create a new product.
2
o PUT /api/products/:id: Update a product.
o DELETE /api/products/:id: Delete a product.
o GET /api/suppliers: Get all suppliers.
o POST /api/suppliers: Create a new supplier.
Frontend (React)
1. React Router:
o Set up routing for login, product management, and supplier management.
2. State Management:
o Use React's useState and useEffect hooks for managing state and fetching data.
3. Components:
o Login Component: Handles user authentication.
o ProductForm Component: Used for adding and updating products.
o SupplierForm Component: Used for adding and updating suppliers.
o InventoryList Component: Displays all products with their stock status.
Non-Functional Requirements
1. Security: Ensure data is secured during transmission and stored securely.
2. Performance: The application should handle multiple concurrent users with efficient database queries.
3. Scalability: The system should be designed to accommodate an increasing number of products and suppliers
without significant performance degradation.
Conclusion
The Complex Inventory Management System will facilitate effective product and supplier management with
intelligent default values and user-friendly interfaces. This structure is designed to automate processes, reduce
manual errors, and enhance the overall efficiency of inventory management.
