Bikeways Point of Sale/Inventory System

Project Description:
This program was created for Bikeways, a local bicycle shop in Hendersonville, NC. The system allows the user to receive stock into inventory, query inventory, and sell stock from inventory, providing customer sales transaction receipts. This system replaced the previous handwritten sales and inventory tracking. The Bikeways POS provides a better way for sales and inventory to be handled aiding in loss prevention and better cash handling.

Implementation:
The system has a Microsoft Access Database backend and a Visual Basic 6.0 graphical user interface. It is currently implemented on a Pentium 4, 2.4 GHz computer located at Bikeways. My goal was to make the program as intuitive and easy to use as possible because my user is not extremely computer savvy. The owner of Bikeways wanted a simple, self-explanatory system.
