Effective inventory management remains a challenge for many micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), particularly when product identification and stock transactions are managed manually. This study aims to implement a cloud-based barcode inventory information system for a mushroom MSME and evaluate its functional performance. The system was developed as a web-based application integrating product master-data management, barcode generation and scanning, inventory transactions, stock monitoring, supplier and customer management, delivery documentation, reporting, and operator activity history. A scenario-based black-box testing approach was employed to evaluate the implemented system. The evaluation consisted of 16 predefined test cases covering general system functions, barcode operations, inventory transactions, and cloud-based data handling. Functional correctness was measured using the Functional Success Rate (FSR), calculated as the proportion of successfully completed test cases relative to the total number of test cases. The evaluation resulted in 14 successful test cases out of 16, corresponding to an FSR of 87.5%. The findings demonstrate that the implemented system successfully performed the specified inventory management functions and integrated barcode-based product identification with centralized cloud-based inventory data management. The study contributes an implementation-oriented approach for applying barcode and cloud technologies to inventory management in mushroom MSMEs. However, because systematic pre-implementation measurements were not collected, the study does not claim improvements in processing time, inventory accuracy, or transaction throughput. Future research should conduct longitudinal evaluations to quantify the operational impact of system adoption.
