            <p>The development of a proper stock policy is essential to maintain a certain level of operation of the inventory system operation and relatively low maintenance costs. In this way, inventory management contributes to the consolidation of warehouses and provides greater efficiency in accounting entries thanks to the records made in the various inventory sheets that describe the actions carried out both in the warehouse outflows and in the purchase, sale, production, maintenance and service of an organisation. To ensure fast and efficient production, we use an inventory management system that helps reduce the cost costs and time spent on shipping raw materials and products.

            <p>The description of the users based on the indicators (Pending Dispatch, Pending Inventory, Pending Location). The first requirement is to access the system, registration of the users (Administrator, support user, client user). The second requirement allowed the creation of task, the third requirement allowed the creation of a task, the third requirement allowed the creation of task is in progress with its respective location and the fourth one generated report about that in process this or in what process it stayed or if it finished the task.</p>
            <p>Design phase</p>
            <p>Users with a simple design were selected. In addition, tasks (CRC Cards) were created to allow even better system analysis and compression, as shown in

The relationship between the asset management system and web/mobile system access is undeniable. This is in line with the assertion that the critical processes applied within the company to develop new web systems help to increase sales within the company and even without this, you still need to reopen your main POS system. Thanks to the web system developed, most of the company&#x2019;s products can be found in an organised way in Internet search engines. Web applications are widely used todays of the convenience of the web browser as a thin machine client and the independence of the operating system.

            <title>Conclusion and future work</title>
            <p>This study has successfully completed the development and implementation of a web/mobile inventory management system in a company that relied on existing manual management. During the course of the study, modernisation issues of production data collection, storage, and availability in terms of inventory management were addressed and overcome.</p>
            <p>Initially, the inherent limitations of manual recording systems were identified, including lack of efficiency, difficulties in accessing and organising information, and the risk of data loss in any process. The implementation of web/mobile systems has emerged as a viable solution to address these shortcomings. By moving of various processes to a digital environment has made production information has become more available, readable, and secure. These changes have significantly improved the quality of management and efficiency in the manufacturing industry by providing relevant information in an accessible and efficient manner.</p>
            <p>In addition, the creation of a web/mobile system facilitated communication and coordination between departments. Centralised access to data from each process optimises the creation of detailed and accurate records, increasing the word efficiency of production specialists. Interaction between different regions and different locations proved to be one of the main advantages, overcoming one of the limitations.</p>
            <p>In short, new researchers are encouraged to use the latest information technologies to achieve optimal results in assessments, such as expert systems and/or artificial intelligence systems. Exploiting the connectivity of devices through the Internet of Things (IoT). In addition, it is important to develop evaluation tools to measure the positive and negative impact of the implementation of this new module on the patient experience.</p>

            <p>This article presents the development and implementation of a web/mobile inventory management system for a private manufacturing company. The system was developed using the Extreme Programming (XP) methodology and aims to improve inventory control, production processes, and operational efficiency. The implementation includes a web platform, mobile application, database integration, reporting functions, inventory monitoring, and code generation features. The authors report improvements in inventory-related performance indicators after deployment of the system.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> The rationale for developing the software tool is only partly explained. The manuscript identifies inventory management challenges associated with manual processes and discusses the need for digital solutions. However, the research gap is not clearly established, and the novelty of the proposed system relative to existing inventory management platforms is insufficiently articulated. The article does not clearly explain what specific limitations of existing solutions are being addressed or why the proposed system provides a unique contribution.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> The technical description of the software is partly adequate but lacks sufficient depth expected in a software tool article. The authors describe the technologies used, including PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Angular, Ionic, and the XP development methodology. Database diagrams, flowcharts, and interface screenshots are provided. However, the software architecture, system modules, API design, security mechanisms, database schema details, mobile-web integration approach, and technical implementation decisions are not described in sufficient detail to fully evaluate technical soundness.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> The manuscript does not provide sufficient information to allow replication of the software development process. Although source code repositories are referenced, the article itself lacks detailed descriptions of algorithms, software architecture, database structures, business logic implementation, testing procedures, deployment configurations, and system requirements. The reported XP phases are described at a high level without enough detail for independent reproduction of the system. Replication would therefore be difficult using the manuscript alone.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> Information regarding outputs and performance results is also limited. The manuscript presents screenshots of interfaces and briefly discusses inventory indicators, reporting functions, and code generation. However, the definitions of performance metrics, baseline values, evaluation methodology, sample size, duration of system use, and statistical analysis procedures are not adequately explained. Consequently, readers cannot fully interpret the practical significance of the reported improvements or independently verify the effectiveness claims.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> The conclusions are only partly supported by the evidence presented. While the system appears to have been successfully implemented and may have improved inventory management processes, the manuscript does not provide sufficiently rigorous evaluation data to substantiate broad claims regarding efficiency improvements and organisational benefits. The discussion relies largely on general statements rather than systematic analysis of measured outcomes. More comprehensive performance evaluation, comparative benchmarking, usability assessment, and statistical validation are needed to support the conclusions.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> To strengthen the scientific quality of the article, the following issues should be addressed: 
                <list list-type="order">
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Clearly define the research gap and novelty of the proposed software relative to existing inventory management systems.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Provide a detailed software architecture description, including system components, database design, workflows, APIs, and security mechanisms.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Expand the methodology section with sufficient implementation details to allow replication.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Clearly define all performance indicators and explain how improvements were measured.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Present rigorous evaluation results, including baseline comparisons, sample characteristics, testing procedures, and statistical analyses.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Strengthen the discussion by critically analysing findings and comparing them with related systems reported in the literature.</p>
                    </list-item>
                    <list-item>
                        <p>Align the conclusions more closely with the empirical evidence presented.</p>
                    </list-item>
                </list> Overall, the article addresses a practically relevant problem and demonstrates the implementation of a working software solution. However, substantial improvements in methodological transparency, technical reporting, and evaluation rigor are required before the software tool can be fully assessed and reproduced by other researchers and practitioners.</p>
            <p>Are the conclusions about the tool and its performance adequately supported by the findings presented in the article?</p>
            <p>Partly</p>
            <p>Is the rationale for developing the new software tool clearly explained?</p>
            <p>Partly</p>
            <p>Is the description of the software tool technically sound?</p>
            <p>Partly</p>
            <p>Are sufficient details of the code, methods and analysis (if applicable) provided to allow replication of the software development and its use by others?</p>
            <p>No</p>
            <p>Is sufficient information provided to allow interpretation of the expected output datasets and any results generated using the tool?</p>

            <p>After a comprehensive review of the paper, several critical issues emerged.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> The discrepancy in the paper title, too, as it does not suggest or address the main focus, may not be adequately represented as per the scope of the work.</p>
            <p> When dealing with interactions between multiple areas, the literature review should be considered separately to ensure clarity and coherence.</p>
            <p> Moreover, the literature review related to context along with proposed work presented in the paper need to meet the rigorous standards expected for indexing.</p>
            <p> Research gap to bridge the knowledge gaps in terms of area selected and analysis chosen are not included.</p>
            <p> The codes needs to be extended , and the discussions regarding the code based cases, some useful insights, expertise, the way the information is collected are not discussed.&#x00a0; The lack of clarity in the various codes selection and validation,&#x00a0; no data validation and judgement are&#x00a0; considered and the absence of clear identification of parameters are not significant.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> Implications for researchers, managers, and policymakers and future research directions must be included in terms of the proposed areas.</p>
            <p> Furthermore, due to no proper integration of the methodology process needs to be clearly elucidated, and hence raising questions about the validity and reliability of the code findings.</p>
            <p> The discussion and conclusions of the obtained results must be well improved, highlighting the insights of the research findings, and with support from earlier literature, the article has the potential to provide a comprehensive review.</p>
            <p> However, the identified issues need to be justified for publication in terms of new knowledge contributed by carrying out the research.</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p> It is important to note that while the rejection is based on these identified issues and&#x00a0; shortcomings highlighted.</p>
            <p> Best Regards&#x2026;</p>
            <p>Are the conclusions about the tool and its performance adequately supported by the findings presented in the article?</p>
            <p>No</p>
            <p>Is the rationale for developing the new software tool clearly explained?</p>
            <p>No</p>
            <p>Is the description of the software tool technically sound?</p>
            <p>No</p>
            <p>Are sufficient details of the code, methods and analysis (if applicable) provided to allow replication of the software development and its use by others?</p>
            <p>No</p>
            <p>Is sufficient information provided to allow interpretation of the expected output datasets and any results generated using the tool?</p>

            <p>Thank you very much for this research presentation. The research has researched that is very relevant and required in this era. However, the research lacks in providing the rationale of the study. The literature is not sufficiently provided that questions the motivation behind this research. The methodology and results sections need significant improvement and currently are not in a position to be approved. The discussion should make it clear how and what the study is exactly contributing such as what new insights were gained. Basically, what this means is that the study should provide insight that better explains real-life phenomena. The discussion should include in-depth analysis such as not only looking at results but also at the contexts of previous studies, the methodologies applied, definitions used etc. When done in a good way, this should help make it clear what the paper contributes.</p>
            <p>Are the conclusions about the tool and its performance adequately supported by the findings presented in the article?</p>
