Main Problem
A manual inventory system relies heavily on the actions of people, which increases the possibility of human error. People might forget to record a transaction or simply miscount the number of goods. This results in needless additional orders that increase the company's inventory carrying costs and use up precious storage space. Inaccurate physical counts could also result in not ordering enough of a product, meaning the business could run out of a crucial item at the wrong time. A disadvantage of manual inventory systems is that they can be highly labor-intensive to operate. They require continuous monitoring to ensure that each transaction is accounted for and that products are maintained at the appropriate stocking levels. It is also more difficult to share inventory information throughout the business, because the lack of computerization makes accessing inventory records a more cumbersome process. The time spent monitoring inventory levels could be used on more productive activities for the business. Specific problem
Registers and logs with good design are difficult. Summarizing data and writing reports take lot of time, cost- time is money and employees data duplication: the same data gets repeated over and over since the workers find it hard to keep track of the documents, information and transactions. Lack of security: since data is stored in filing cabinets it is freely available to anyone. If information falls into the wrong hands it can be used against the company and customers and can blackmail them. Common errors: when entering data customers might have accidentally
