Answer 1_1_3

Explain how a supermarket might use its ICT resources to ensure that stocks are kept up.

These are possible points.  Each point is backed up by an example:

• Stock level monitoring - records the number of items held and sold.
• Movement of stock - ensuring that oldest stock is sold first.
• Recording location of stock - so that staff can find it quickly.
• Reordering of stock - at a predetermined value, an automatic order is sent to the supplier.

Remember:  Point - and then example.
