Inventory control and distribution of medicine stocks by using a just in time method based on interactive web applications

Abstract Management of an inventory data within an agency requires an interactive management system to provide ease and informative data presentation. Data processing using an interactive system makes it easy for users to understand and interact with data, especially if the agency concerned is an agency that is in charge of long-term data storage, complex data processing, data collection and data distribution processes, controlling inventory availability, and data collection conducted every day. Data storage and conventional data processing has several weaknesses such as high error rate in data processing, the system is not interactive so that it troubles and impedes the inventory data collection process by users, and can produce data ambiguity that can cause misinformation. By using the inventory control model Just-In-Time (JIT) Inventory method that allows the compilation of data collection and inventory stock requests as needed so that it can easily distribute and minimize wasted stock, the processing, storage, and data collection of a particular data inventory can be controlled well and can provide clearer information. As a result, implementing inventory control methods into a web application can provide web applications that have better functionality in processing, storing, and collecting data.
