Hi, this assignment is killing me i dont really get it. sum1 plz explain :D

the owner of a mini-mart has installed a new computer system to assist in managing teh daily running of the store. check the stock in the store; control all transaction and ordering procedures. the owner is not happy with the way the system is running.

The owner of the mart approaches you as system analyst and asks you to fix the problems. You have to examine the problems in the system: computer hardware and software present, the way transactions are taking place at the point of sale, the method use the handle the financial transactions, the way the merchandise is being ordered and arranged in the store and the warehouse.
Propose new changes to the system hardware and software, if necessary the way transactions should take place the methods of ordering new stock and the proper methods needed to keep the system secure and safe in case of an unexpected failure.

Thanks. :D

Seems to me that they can't ask you to fix something that isn't broken. They simply can't say "he isn't happy, improve the system". What isn't he happy about?!

Fingers crossed this question dosen't appear in our paper today!

I'm really confused about the following question?

Identify the information technology, data/information, information processes and participants involved in the cheque clearance process.
