Digitization of Warehouse Stock Management Through Web-Based Information Systems

Digitalization in warehouse stock management has become increasingly important, particularly for small and medium enterprises that still rely on manual recording methods. These traditional systems often lead to delays, data inaccuracies, and operational inefficiencies. This study aims to design and implement a web-based warehouse stock management information system to improve the recording process, increase accuracy, and support decision-making at Digital Connection, a company still using Microsoft Excel for inventory tracking. The system was developed using the waterfall method, which includes five structured stages: needs analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Functional testing was conducted through black box testing to validate the performance of all system features from a user perspective. The results demonstrate that the developed system enables real-time recording of incoming and outgoing goods, provides interactive data visualization through a dashboard, and issues automatic alerts for minimum stock thresholds. Compared to the previous manual system, the digital solution significantly enhances data accuracy, reduces the risk of duplication or loss, and speeds up reporting processes. This transition not only streamlines warehouse operations but also improves user responsiveness in stock management activities. In conclusion, the proposed information system offers an effective and adaptive approach for small businesses to transition from manual to digital warehouse management, contributing to operational efficiency and supporting broader digital transformation initiatives in logistics and supply chain environments.
