DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTER BASED WAREHOUSING INFORMATION SYSTEM
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to computerize the warehousing information system (A case study of NPA – Lagos) and to develop a computer package, whereby the techniques observed from the manual method can be improved upon. It is a known fact that the manual method of warehousing information system has been associated with lots of inaccuracy in warehousing information system. This has led to some set back that has cost some obstruction on some parts, when in service. The software, when developed will facilitate and enhance the more and methods of warehousing information system which enables accuracy and also saves time when services and rendered. There is no intention here, to treat modules separately, hence the entire project is menu driven, to cover most of the facilities present. Lastly, it is optimistic that at the end of going through the work, one should be able to; 1 Have a clear idea of the project 2. Improve it to suit other organization with regard to other sources and problems. 3. Know what it achieves.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Warehouse is where goods and commodities are kept for further clearance. Narrowing it to Nigeria Ports Authority, there are many warehouse where imported consignment and goods are stored. This is cleared by carrying the billing papers from post to post, waiting and wasting much time in seeing who is in charge. Goods that takes about two weeks to berth into the country takes another two weeks to get cleared. This makes the importers and the clearing agents to run from port to port, in search of where the goods were kept. The introduction of computer in warehousing will enable importers know which and where their goods are kept, as it will always be stipulates on the bill of laden papers. Computer is hereby seen as a way of handling, by systematically organizing them, recording or making notations on them, following up with the appropriate action or the like.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLE
The processing of billing papers for clearance of goods, with manual method has led to omission of many records that ought to be included. This is caused by inaccuracy of the manual billing process. Due to the inefficiency in manual billing process, billing papers are carried from post to post, waiting for who is in charge, thereby delaying the goods that suppose to be delivered. More so, goods are not delivered on time, due to the fact, that goods that takes about two weeks to get into the country, still takes another two weeks to be cleared.
1.3 PURPOSE OF STUDY
The purpose of this is study is to
1. Identify those problems caused by using manual billing clearance
2. Finding out the effect of this in Nigeria Ports Auth Create computer awareness
4. Identify prospects for solution of problems.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This research, base on the problem and prospect of using computer in Nigeria Ports Authority, will help to develop interest towards computer.
The findings of this research, will also help the management to increase the income generation of Nigeria Ports Authority and smooth running of the warehouse in general.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The researcher will identify all the problems, including the financial constraints of the problems, encounter with the use of manual billing clearance in warehousing.
