Inventory management application development for one of the largest signage manufacturers in the US

To begin with the engagement, our team of expert project managers, software architects, and UI/UX designers first outlined the optimal architecture of the platform, refined the functional requirements, and developed a complete product vision and its development roadmap.

Keeping in view client’s future expansion plans, business model, and service offerings, our team came up with the most efficient technology stack – Flutter for mobile and web applications, ReactJS for the admin panel, and .NET for the backend.

Daffodil’s team was entrusted with the development of a mobile and web application to simplify inventory management for users. Through the app, users could easily scan the QR codes on the tags and input detailed information about each item. This included essential data such as the item’s name, quantity, and expiration date if applicable. By doing so, users gained real-time visibility into their inventory, enabling them to monitor stock levels, locations, and movements efficiently.

The application was thoughtfully designed with user convenience in mind. Its intuitive interface was optimized for seamless navigation across both mobile and web platforms. This ensured accessibility and ease of use for users across different devices.

The functionality of this application extended beyond this:

View, edit, and share contents: Users can view box contents by scanning QR codes and have the option to edit box contents, move items between boxes, and update inventory information as needed. They can also export box data in various formats (e.g., PDF, CSV) for offline reference or share box contents via email, facilitating data sharing and analysis.

Photo capture and multiple pictures: Users can utilize the in-app camera to capture multiple photos of items they are packing into a box, linking these images directly to inventory entries. This functionality streamlines the documentation process, ensuring accurate item identification during later stages.

Voice-to-text conversion: The app includes a voice-to-text feature, allowing users to verbally input item details like descriptions and quantities. This hands-free option streamlines data entry, especially useful when users cannot type manually. With advanced speech recognition technology, spoken words are accurately transcribed into text within the app, enhancing efficiency in inventory management tasks.

Offline functionality and data sync: Users can access core functionalities of the app offline, including viewing existing inventory, adding new items, editing existing items, and scanning QR codes. Changes made offline are synchronized with the online database once the device reconnects to the internet, allowing accessibility in all situations. Additionally, cross-device sync enables users to access and update inventory data across multiple devices, ensuring data consistency.

Notifications and reminders: Users receive alerts for important updates such as item expiry dates or low stock levels, ensuring timely action and proactive management. They can also set reminders for important tasks, enhancing productivity and organization in inventory management.

Monetization integration: The app includes a feature allowing users to view client products within the platform, providing detailed product information. Users can seamlessly navigate to the client’s corresponding website to purchase these products.

Admin Panel

Admin onboarding and management: The system starts with a default super admin, who can invite and manage additional admins. Super admins can securely log in and manage their account credentials. They can invite new admins via email and manage existing admins’ access to the system.

User management: Admins have tools to oversee users effectively. They can access comprehensive user lists, view detailed user information, and perform actions such as adding, removing, or blocking users as needed.

User data tracking and management: Admins can track user activity, including the number of boxes scanned and their contents. They can also edit and manage user data, including searching for specific user data using keywords.

Monetization and product management: Admins can manage products available on the platform. They can add, modify, or delete products, ensuring the product catalog remains current and relevant to users. This includes features such as adding product images, titles, descriptions, and purchase URLs.
