Abstract: Dessie Health Science College (DHSC) uses manual process system for the store. When customers need to borrow an item, and return the borrowed item they must go to the office and record what they want manually, that’s way it is making the process too late. Which requires the employee to use paper based recording files to know the status of each customer and to perform the process in the system. The paper includes three chapters or phases. The first phase covers the introduction, which contains background, Existing system study, proposed system, objective of the project, benefits of the project, scope, methodology and significant of the project. The second phase covers the system features which contain existing system description, hardware requirement, software requirement, user requirement, system requirement, functional requirement, non-functional requirement, use case diagram, Use case description, activity diagram and sequence diagram. The third phase covers system design which include Deployment diagram, user interface design, ER diagram and Algorism design.Abstract: Dessie Health Science College (DHSC) uses manual process system for the store.

Abstract: Health Management Information System (HMIS) has sub system under HIS is specially designed to assist the management and planning of health programmes opposed to delivery of care that provides decentralized decision making and planning. However, decentralized informational management is at infancy stage in Ethiopia. Hence, to ensure the effective and efficient utilization of a system, periodic assessment becomes imperative at this juncture. The study aims in assessing utilization of HMIS at Public Health Centers in Addis Ababa. Institution based cross sectional quantitative and qualitative study was conducted from July to September 2011. The sample size was calculated using single population proportion formula and a total of 416 health professionals were included. Frequencies, proportion and summary statistics were used to describe the study population in relation to relevant variables. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were also be carried out to see the effect of each independent variable on the dependent variable. 416 respondents respond to the questionnaire with 98% response rate. The current utilization rate of HMIS at health centers were about 41.7%. The total outcomes of the generated routine data were compiled using tally sheet, registers, and reports, and in combination of these formats. The combined utilization of the mentioned formats constituted 199 (48.8%). The odds ratio result indicated that the provisions of technical supports, presence of computers, generated data at department level and practice of conversion of data into information enhanced the utilization of HMIS (AOR=1.69, 95%CI:1.09-2.63), (AOR=2.08, 95%CI:1.29-3.35) (AOR=2.78, 95%CI:1.65 -4.68), and (AOR=3.44, 95%CI:(1.82-6.51) respectively.Abstract: Health Management Information System (HMIS) has sub system under HIS is specially designed to assist the management and planning of health programmes opposed to delivery of care that provides decentralized decision making and planning.
