Web-based technology has solved the limitation that face by the stand-alone application which not allows people to work concurrently with the same data. This is why business field need this technology so that it can make communication and transaction faster.

The new features added in this research are to calculate the actual cost of the item that kept in the inventory. The actual cost calculation allows the user to keep the actual cost of having the item in the inventory even though the item is keep changing it price by the supplier every month. The second feature is the stock age that allows the user to know the ages of the item kept in the inventory.
