OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
In view of the problems mentioned above, this project is aimed at implementing a sales forecasting system using linear regression model and with an added POS system
- Manage and forecast sales
- Automate customer, product, supplier management on the system
- Manage system access and roles on the system
- Manage every users of the system
RESEARCH JUSTIFICATION
This research work will provide a reliable way of handling sales and sales forecasting using linear regression model to forecast sales in and financial institution. Furthermore, it will aids structural document representation and eliminates the tedium of performing monotonous transaction. This research will also contribute to existing literature in this area and will serve as a guild or blueprint for an undergraduate student.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This research work “design and implementation of a “Sales Forecasting System” will be a web-based application and will be implemented on a relational database system (MySQL). Html (hypertext markup language), css (cascading style sheet) and Jquery will be used to design the web-user interface, php (hypertext preprocessor) will be used as the serve- side script language to link the interface and the database.
SCOPE AND LIMITATION OF STUDY
This research work is to develop a system capable of managing sales on a daily basis using a “Point of Sales (POS)” method and also, being able to forecast sales using linear regression model.
The system will not incorporate in its development all the models use for sales forecasting but will focus only on the aforementioned models and functionalities. The system will not be responsible for any loss of data if its environment (network/system installed on) is corrupt.
