Build Use Case in UML - Exercise

Course Project | Part 1 Exercise

Objective:Build the use case diagram for the course project inventory control system.
Instructions
Use the following problem statement as your source for building the course project use case diagram. Follow the same thought process that we used in the simulation.

Problem Statement - Receiving

The receiving clerks receive incoming shipments by matching purchase orders against the stock in the shipment. They inform the Accounts Payable department when the purchase order items have been received.
  1. Stocking: The stock may come from cancelled orders, returned orders, and received shipments. The stock is placed in the warehouse in predefined locations. The stock clerk looks up the correct location for the new stock, places the stock in that location, and updates the inventory with the location and quantity.
  2. Order Fulfillment: Other staff members fill orders by locating the stock required for the order. As they fill the order they update inventory to reflect the fact that they have taken the stock. They also notify the Order Processing department that the order has been filled.
  3. Shipping : When the orders are filled they are then packed and prepared for shipping. The shipping folks contact the shippers to arrange delivery and update inventory to record the fact that the products actually shipped. They also notify the Order Processing department that the order has shipped.
