An internal order management system for streamlining beverage procurement and stock control.
The client required a unified system to replace inefficient manual tracking of beverage stocks. The challenge was architecting a system that handles complex dependencies between live stock levels, expiration dates, and automated reordering logic while enforcing strict user permissions.
We built a monolithic Spring Boot application serving as a central hub. I architected the Inventory module, writing the core business logic that automatically flags low-stock items and dispatches procurement orders. The frontend uses server-side rendering with Thymeleaf for a rapid, responsive dashboard.
Delivered a functional, production-ready prototype that successfully digitized the manual workflow. We hit all sprint deliverables on schedule, proving our capability to ship full-stack Spring applications within a strict Agile framework.
The system is architected using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern typical of Spring Boot applications. It utilizes Spring Data JPA for object-relational mapping to the database and Spring Security for granular access control (e.g., identifying Warehouse Managers vs. Sales Staff).
Real-time monitoring of beverage stock levels with automated low-stock alerts.
Logic to generate supplier orders automatically when inventory dips below defined thresholds.
Secure authentication system separating administrative duties from standard staff operations.
Integrated accounting features to track procurement costs vs. internal usage or sales.
Mapped out the "To-Be" processes for the beverage shop's internal logistics.
Developed the backend services for inventory management and order processing.
Refined the Thymeleaf UI and conducted integration tests using JUnit.
Delivered the functional prototype with completed acceptance testing.
