The Chemistry Department at Miami University maintains a chemical storeroom for
the university as a whole.  At present inventory control is accomplished with
a batch data entry system to a database maintained by SAS.
 
I wrote this dog about 10 years ago.  Soon the department will decide to
revamp this system.  I would be very interested to here what other Universities
are doing in the area of automation of chemical storerooms.
 
There is a lot of manual labor involved that I feel could be automated.  I woul
also like for professor's to be able to querry the inventory for availability,
and if possible, request chemicals electronically from their offices.
 
I would like to reduce labor on order entry and receiveing.
 
If anyone can think of another newsgroup to post this querry to please let me
know.
 
Thanks.  Joe Simpson
