Order specification

OBJECT: To develop a small system that will help the company to track orders as they are picked up by the sales force.

Specifications: We are a FMCG company with pan-India presence. We have products in six categories which are soaps, shampoos, detergents, surface cleaners, deodorants and hair gel. We are launching a new pilot project in delhi with the objective of making our order management more effective. The project entails empowering sales managers with PDA, which will enable them to transmit the requirements of distributors in real time. This PDA will be backed by an application with following specifications-

  • Since it is going to be used by sales persons who are usually not tech savvy, the application should be user friendly.
  • It should be an online application.
  • The database should get updated as and when a distributer places an order with the sales person.
  • If the required quantity is not available then the sales person should get a message " out of stock ".
  • The front end of the application should have the following fields-
  1. Product
  2. quantity
  3. unit price
