Inventory Management System (IMS) is a comprehensive companion program to Financial Accounting System, Purchase and Sales Management modules of SDBS package. It is designed to meet  the stock accounting needs of small to large trading or manufacturing companies that may be diversified multi-location multi-currency businesses. It includes MRP-1 functionality - based on user input forecast or production plan, the program generates bill of material and net input requirements of materials. These requirements can be converted to purchase order recommendations after reviewing the stocks on hand, stocks on order and consumption rates all of which are tracked and reported by IMS. The standard item rates and standard recipes (or bill of material for each intermediate of finished item) help in reporting consumption and price variances based on production and consumption data. IMS thus works as a stock accounting and a management control reporting system.

The program provides for a robust security administration.
