2. Abstract
Inventory is one of the most visible and tangible aspects of doing
business. Raw materials, goods in process and finished goods all
represent various forms of inventory. Each type represents money
tied up until the inventory leaves the company as purchased
products. Likewise, merchandise stocks in a retail store contribute
to profits only when their sale puts money into the cash register. In
a
literal sense, inventory refers to stocks of anything necessary to do
business. These stocks represent a large portion of the business
investment and must be well managed in order to maximize profits.
The purpose of this project is to develop a database inventory
system for Book shop. The development of this system will provide
more inventory controlling and also give services and facilitate for
customers and staffs of bookstore. This project develops a
database and data management enhancement platform through
incorporation the conventional data gathering and management
approaches with the IT applications. It also establish a user friendly
system to ease the accessibility, usage and sharing of the available
data and information in the developed database.

3. INTRODUCTION
Online shopping is the process whereby consumers directly buy goods, services etc. from
a seller interactively in real-time without an intermediary service over the internet.
Online shopping is the process of buying goods and services from merchants who sell on
the Internet. Since the emergence of the World Wide Web, merchants have sought to sell
their books to people who surf the Internet. Shoppers can visit web stores from the
comfort of their homes and shop as they sit in front of the computer. Consumers buy a
variety of items from online stores. In fact, people can purchase just about anything from
companies that provide their books online. Books, clothing, household appliances, toys,
hardware, software, and health insurance are just some of the hundreds of books
consumers can buy from an online store.
Many people choose to conduct shopping online because of the convenience. For
example, when a person shops at a brick-and-mortar store, she has to drive to the store,
find a parking place, and walk throughout the store until she locates the books she needs.
After finding the items she wants to purchase, she may often need to stand in long lines at
the cash register.
The goal of project is to design an online bookstore that sells computer, technical,
architecture, sports and various categories books. The book inventories are stored in
Mysql database. Customers can access the bookstore web site through the World Wide
Web. Customers will be able to search the database to find the books they want, check the
availability, and place the order to buy the book using their credit cards.
This Application software allow customer to search the inventory of these real bookstores,
and display the searching results such as the title, the price and availability of the book.

4. Problem Statement
Managing your Online Book Store System may seem tricky, but a Online
Bookstore is a part of E-commerce Service System (Application support
direct contact with users).
Objectives of the study
My objective is to design such an application using which one can say
'goodbye' to the days when you stood in line waiting, and waiting
some more for a store clerk to finally check out your items. Online
shopping transactions occur instantly-saving you time to get your
other errands done! Additionally, unlike a store, online shopping has
friendly customer service representatives available 24 hours a day, 7
days a week to assist you with locating, purchasing and shipping your
merchandise.
My main aim is to design such a book store where customer can visit
our site anytime of the day from anywhere to view the available books,
choose any of them and can order by paying online or can opt for
cash on delivery as well. The administrator will regularly add any new
books available to them for sale. The administrator will take books
from the reputed publishers and vendors only.

7. INVENTORY
The word inventory doesn't have the same meaning in the USA and in the UK. In
American English and in a business accounting context, the word inventory is
commonly used to describe the goods and materials that a business holds for
the ultimate purpose of resale. In American English, the word stock is commonly
used to describe the capital invested in a business, while in British English, the
sentence stock shared is used in the same context. In the rest of the English
speaking world stock is more commonly used, although the word inventory is
recognized as a synonym.
In British English, the word inventory is more commonly thought of as a list
compiled for some formal purpose, such as the details of an estate going to
probate, or the contents of a house let furnished. In both British and American
English, stock is the collective noun for one hundred shares as shares were
usually traded in stocks on Stock Exchanges. For this reason the word stock is
used by both American and British English in the term Stock Exchange.
Inventories are materials stored, waiting for processing , or experiencing
processing. They are ubiquitous throughout all sectors of the economy.
Observation of almost any company balance sheet, for example, reveals that
significant portion of its assets comprises inventories of raw materials,
components and subassemblies within the production process, and finished
goods. Most managers don't like inventories because they are like money placed
in a drawer, assets tied up in investments that are not producing any return and ,
in fact, incurring a borrowing cost.

8. INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
In any business or organization all functions are interlinked and
connected to each other and are often overlapping. Some key
aspects like supply chain management, logistics and inventory
from the backbone of the business delivery function. Therefore
these functions are extremely important to marketing managers
as well as finance controllers. Inventory management is a very
important function that determines the health of the supply chain
as well as the impacts the financial health of the balance sheet.
Every organization constantly strives to maintain optimum
inventory to be able to meet its requirements and avoid over or
under inventory that can impact the financial figures. Inventory
is always dynamic. Inventory management requires constant and
careful evaluation of external and internal factors and control
through planning and review. Most of the organizations have a
separate department or job function called inventory planners
who continuously monitor, control and review inventory and
interface with production, procurement and finance departments.

9. Inventory Important
Inventory is one of the biggest costs of capital of any product-
based business. If you look at the balance sheet of this type of
company, you’re likely to find that inventory makes up a large
portion of current assets and uses up a lot of working capital.
Inventory control helps avoid the many costs related with buying
too much inventory and the strains of going without the needed
inventory. While some companies using just-in-time ordering
may carry extremely small inventories, nearly any business
requires some form of inventory, which is best managed through
inventory control systems.
If a company can lower inventory, it may find new funds available
for expansion or profits. If a company needs to carry more
inventory and tight inventory control processes bring inventory
levels up, the business could find higher sales, and again higher
profits. Using inventory control to optimize your warehouse,
stock room, supply room, or storefront is a sure way to cut costs
and better manage any kind of product.

11. Software
1- PHP
PHP is a scripting language designed to fill the gap between SSI
(Server Side Includes) and Perl, intended largely for the web
environment. PHP has gained quite a following in recent times, and it
is one of the forerunners in the Open Source software movement. Its
popularity derives from its C-like syntax, its speed and its simplicity.
PHP is currently divided into two major versions: PHP 4 and PHP 5,
although PHP 4 is deprecated and is no longer developed or supplied
with critical bug fixes. PHP 6 is currently under development. If you've
ever been to a website that needs you to login, you've probably
encountered a server-side scripting language. Due to its market
saturation, this means you've probably come across PHP

12. ADVANTAGES Of PHP
1.Speed up custom web application development
2.Simplify web application maintenance
3.No need to write additional code
4.Work with databases more efficiently
5.Automate common web development tasks
6.Protect websites from targeted security attacks
7.Perform unit testing efficiently
8.No need to increase web development cost
Disadvantages Of PHP
-Programmers need to learn PHP frameworks instead of PHP
-Quality of PHP frameworks differs
-Lack of option to modify core behavior
-Affect Speed and performance of websites

13. 2-HTML
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It allows the user to create and
structure sections, paragraphs, headings, links, and blockquotes for web
pages and applications.
HTML is not a programming language, meaning it doesn’t have the ability to
create dynamic functionality. Instead, it makes it possible to organize and
format documents, similarly to Microsoft Word[9].
When working with HTML, we use simple code structures (tags and attributes)
to mark up a website page. For example, we can create a paragraph by
placing the enclosed text within a starting <p> and closing </p> tag.
Overall, HTML is a markup language that is really straightforward and easy to
learn even for complete beginners in website building.
3-CSS
CSS stands for cascading style sheets. In short, CSS is a design language
that makes a website look more appealing than just plain or uninspiring
pieces of text. Whereas HTML largely determines textual content, CSS
determines visual structure, layout, and aesthetics. HTML is a markup
language, and CSS is a style sheet language. Think “look and feel” when you
think CSS

14. 4-MySQL
My is the daughter’s name of the MySQL’s co-founder, Monty
Widenius. The name of MySQL is the combination of My and SQL,
MySQL.
MySQL is a database management system that allows you to manage
relational databases. It is open source software backed by Oracle. It
means you can use MySQL without paying a dime. Also, if you want,
you can change its source code to suit your needs[11].
Even though MySQL is open source software, you can buy a
commercial license version from Oracle to get premium support
services.
MySQL is pretty easy to master in comparison with other database
software like Oracle Database, or Microsoft SQL Server.
MySQL can run on various platforms UNIX, Linux, Windows, etc. You
can install it on a server or even in a desktop. Besides, MySQL is
reliable, scalable, and fast. If you develop websites or web
applications, MySQL is a good choice. MySQL is an essential
component of the LAMP stack, which includes Linux, Apache, MySQL,
and PHP

23. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
- CONCLUSION
Inventory management is very important to bookshop and any type of shop, effective
inventory management and minimizing this can provide competitive advantage to your firm in
the market place. That is why the development of this outstanding piece of work is carried out.
This is a perfect solution to the book shops having inventory problems. This work is of great
significance because it carries to support customers and sales. Successful inventory book
shop management involves balancing the cost of inventory with the benefits of inventory –
many small business owners fail to appreciate fully the true cost of carrying inventory which
include not only direct cost of storage, insurance and taxes but also the cost of money, tied up
in the inventory. Also, in controlling the inventory, it is necessary to establish adequate
control over inventory in order and inventory in stock.
To implement this as a web application we used PHP as the Technology. PHP (XAMPP) has
several advantages such as enhanced performance, scalability, built- in security and
simplicity. To build any web application using PHP we need a programming language such as ,
HTML # and so on. php was the language used to build this application. PHP uses MySQL
server to interact with the database as it provides in-memory caching that eliminates the need
to contact the database server frequently and it can easily deploy and maintain an PHP
application. MySQL was used as back-end database since it is one of the most popular open
source databases, and it provides fast data access, easy installation and simplicity.
The inventory book shop system will restore calm state of mind to the business of book
shops. This judgment is depended on some of the business features, which it has provided for
the safety of transaction.

24. -FUTURE WORK
There are some limitations for the current system to which solutions
can be provided as a future development:
1.The system is not configured for multi- users at this time. The
concept of transaction can be used to achieve this.
2.The Website is not accessible to everyone. It can be deployed on a
web server so that everybody who is connected to the Internet can use
it.
3.Credit Card validation is not done. Third party proprietary software
can be used for validation check.
4.I recommend this work to all business both large and small whose
inventory management processes are still carried out manually.
5.I recommend that the users of this application make effort to follow
the change in information technology, which certainly translates their
method of operation into a modern way of information processing. This
is important because no matter how efficient the application is, it will
not be productive if the user do not use it well.
