user to stored credentials in the file written at time of default login.
Stock Report: A report is generated showing total stock and stock value.

7. How It Works
Item management system
 Seperate functions for each functionality.
 parametres are passed to all these functions
from main function.
 Different logics of file handling and iterations
are applied for different functionalities.
 For eg append ,mode of file is used in add();
function as data is to be written below the
existing data.

8. How It Works
 A stock report generation feature is used to generate a report to
summarize all the data in inventory.
 Basic Arithmetic operations are used alongwith iterations to update
the total no.of items and total stock value after every iteration and
store it as final results to be displayed

9. System Workflow
 Start
 Login
 Main Menu
 Options
 Item Management
 Stock Report
 Options again
 So on........Until the user decides to exit
the program

10. System work flow

 Practical Example :
 A warehouse manager logs in, views the inventory, adds a new
shipment of 50 items, and updates stock levels.

11. Data Storage
 Items stored in items.txt, credentials in
project.txt, reports in stock.txt.
 Practical Example:
 Credentials: A manager sets up a
username and password. These are
securely saved in project.txt.
 Items: New stock of pens is added.
Details like ID, price, and quantity are
written to items.txt.

12. Login Functionality
 Login options for first-time setup or regular access.
 Practical Example:

 A warehouse manager adds a new item:
Item Name: "LED Bulbs"
Item ID: 101
Price: 500
Quantity: 200
 Details are saved to items.txt.

14. Deleting items
 Process: Match ID > Remove item from file.
 Practical Example:
 A damaged stock of "LED Bulbs" (ID: 101) is removed. The system
updates the file by deleting this entry.

15. Searching items
 Methods: Search by name, ID, price, or quantity.

 Stock Value: 500 * 200 = 100,000
 The system generates this report and stores it in stock.txt.

17. Technical Overview
 Language: C++
 Libraries:
1. <iostream>:
For input/output operations.
2. <fstream>:
For handling files (storing credentials and inventory data).
3. <iomanip>:
For formatting output (alignment and precision).

18. Technical Overview
