These material management software have come a long way when it comes to the history of using the inventory system. Inventory in the earlier days was managed by a system known as cardex system. These cards were read and updated once an inventory was moved from a location. Apart from these cards, books or registers were maintained to note these transactions and reports manually. This system was quite basic and time consuming for the employees and had led to many human errors and product losses. A new revolution was created with new online inventory management system software where intelligent applications manage the inventory, help in analysis, categorization and to a large extend reduce human errors, product damage and theft.
