PROBLEM BACKGROUND
Nowadays, real time information can easily be provided by the cloud technology. Yes it is true "if" the internet connection is good in all locations. What about if there are company branches or outlets with poor internet or no connection at all"? What about if the people at the outlets or the transporter knows only using mobile phones? Then the information is incomplete. The big question is "How to get the data from the remote sources in real time and consolidate them to the company information system in a cloud technology?". This is the real problem of the majority number of small to medium enterprises in particular in the franchising industry. Owners want updated, uninterupted and instant information about their sales, VAT, cash, undeposited collection, cost of sales, gross profit, expenses, net profit, inventory of finished goods and raw materials, payables, receivables, undelivered sale orders and purchase orders etc...
