Abstract
This paper presents the development and implementation of an inventory management system designed for small-scale industries using Python's tkinter module for the graphical user interface and SQLite3 for database management. The system addresses the common challenges faced by small businesses in tracking inventory, managing stock levels, and generating timely reports. A simple yet effective PIN-based authentication mechanism ensures data security while maintaining ease of use. The system's development followed an iterative approach, with features being implemented and tested in phases. Testing results demonstrate significant improvements in inventory tracking accuracy and time efficiency compared to manual methods. The system's lightweight nature makes it suitable for businesses with limited computational resources while providing essential functionality like stock management, product categorization, low-stock alerts, and comprehensive reporting.
