Abstract:
The research aims to reduce the data searching time for the packaging development section. According to the whole data and work procedures of a case study company, it is found problems of the delayed data searching and redundant data storage due to unorganized and unsystematic operation in the original system. Resulting in documents and data files loss. Therefore, the problems are solved by applying phpMyAdmin for the development and design of database management system to efficiently manage data, reducing the delayed data searching and data loss problems. In comparison between the new and original work system, the searching time of documents can be reduced from 36 to 3.6 minutes per document or 90.03 percent reduction and the searching time of data files can be reduced from 31 to 2.8 minutes per file or 90.97 percent reduction. In addition, the new work system can prevent 100 percent data loss. Resulting in faster and more convenient operating procedures, reduced waiting times and redundancy in data storage. In conclusion, the developed database management program as a new work system can reduce the data searching time and data loss, including helps to work efficiently.
