Furthermore no major categorization of staff activity exists in the inventory system. However to appreciate how system carries out this functions to meet it’s set objectives various activities that take place in the system are described below:- 1. The pre-order activities 2. The order activities 3. The receiving and checking activities 4. Storing and distribution 5. File updating

6. Accounting and report activities.

The take of necessary action on the arrival of ordered items 7. Prepare for payment of all items acquired by the company 8. keep current records of the event occurring within the system. 9. Compile a continuous report of the activities carried out during the specified period.

10. Ensure that the various unit including the production unit stock unit and ware house receives the request on time.

1.4 THE SCOPE OF THE STUDY 
In actual sense the scope of the problem of this study is narrowed down to ordering, stocking and delivering of the product out to customers and also the accounting and reporting of expenditure for all ordered and delivering made so find it reasonable to have the research to office inventory on stock of goods.

1.5 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY In this project it is only restricted to the stock department of Nigeria butting computer Enugu depot. There are some limitations they encountered updating of some finished product supply into store house and are delivered to the customers who depends on demand and supply as a method of stock control the recorder stock level the stock level and economics order quantity.
