This document discusses different types of systems and management information systems (MIS). It defines a system as a set of interrelated elements that work towards a common goal. There are five types of systems described: open systems that interact with their environment; closed systems that are isolated from external factors; physical systems that can be touched; abstract systems that are conceptual; and information systems that collect or provide data. The document also outlines four types of MIS - transaction processing systems, information providing systems, decision support systems, and programmed decision making systems - that deliver various levels of data and analysis to managers.

2. System
A system is a set of elements in the form of
ideas, things and people which are
interrelated and part of a cohesive set up
that to achieve a specific goal of goals or
objectives.

 1) Open System
 Open system is independently related to the
environment. It receives input from the environment
and after processing returns in the form of output.
 System keeps on changing according to environment.
 Example:- Green House Effect

 2) Closed System:
 Closed system is not related to environment.
 The changes in environment do not effect the closed
system.
 Example: Water Pump.

6. Types of system…
 3) Physical System
 Physical Systems are tangible.
 They can be movable or static.
 Example: Computer Hardware.

7. Types of system…
 4) Abstract System
 This system are imaginary and intangible.
 Basically based on assumptions and imagination.
 Example: Computer Software, Computer Programme

 5) Information System:
 Information system is a system which collects or
provides information either for operation of the
system or decision making.
 Example: Expert System, Office Automation System

9. Management Information System
 MIS provide information to managers of an
organization. This relates to reports
statistics, stock inventories, payroll details,
budgets or any other details that assist
managers for running an organisation.

 Types of MIS
 1) Transaction Processing System (TPS)
 2) Information Providing System (IPS)
 3) Decision Support System(DSS)
 4) Programmed Decision making system
by Ranjeeta Swarnakar

11. Types of MIS…
 1) TPS
 The system designed for processing day to day
transactions in an organisation. This system deals with
collecting and processing a large volume of data which
mainly helps junior level management in discharging
their responsibilities.
 Example: Accounting system (payroll system, sales
System, purchase system)
by Ranjeeta Swarnakar

12. Types of MIS…
 2) Information Providing System:
 This system is meant for processing information,
making a summary of information and providing
exception reports. The summary reports help in giving
at a glance the available information, while exception
reports indicate deviations and reason for shortfall of
performance.
 Example: Different types of Management Info Reports
like region wise monthly sales report, cash flow report
, material consumption report.

13. Types of MIS…
 3) DSS
 DSS are created to help people make decisions by
providing access to information and analysis tools.
 Many stock brokers now use programmes that will
automatically put in requests to sell shares once they
reach a certain price (either high or low)
 A DSS depends upon the accuracy of the maths
involved in creating the model and ability of the user
to accurately interpret the resulting data.

14. Types of MIS…
 4) Programmed Decision Making System:
 The word ‘program’ is derived from the jargon of the
computer field, where it is defined as a plan automatic
solution of a problem.
 Programs are simply a string of instructions to
accomplish a job or a task. In this information is the
system for programmed decisions are created so that
decisions are made by the system rather than a person.
 Example: JIT
