Changes required
Andrew believes it will be possible to streamline some of these business processes to reduce the amount of time it is taking to process the data. He would also like to have information about his business more readily available. He believes that it could be time to invest in computers to record details about the sales process the payroll and provide details about the stock. He would like you to investigate what options would be available to:
? Provide computers in each of the three stores to capture sales information and manage the hiring details.
? Capturing the customer details would greatly assist in developing a targeted marketing campaign in the future.
? Capturing details about the stock sold so that accurate stock levels could be known
? Provide a way to calculate the wages and to electronically pay staff. Good records of this process are essential.
? Provide useful data to Andrew for forecasting sales.
