This research uses a qualitative descriptive method on Culinary SMEs in Pontianak City. The data collection techniques that researchers use are observation, interview, and documentation techniques. The data analysis tool used to support this research is a flow chart from warehouse to outlet. The use of an Accounting Information System can automatically calculate and update EOQ and ROP based on actual sales and demand data so as to provide an integrated solution to inventory management problems from outlets to headquarters. With standard forms facilitating the flow of goods and orders, this model helps management to maximise inventory investment effectively and efficiently. This has a positive impact on timely order fulfilment, increasing outlet sales and revenue, and supporting the sustainability and development of SME culinary businesses. Overall, the implementation of this system encourages management effectiveness and increases profits by maintaining customer satisfaction.
