Requirements Checklist - Technical Assignment Compliance

✅ 1. Problem Statement

  • Multi-Tenant POS/Inventory Management System
  • Built with Laravel 12.44.0 (latest)
  • API-first architecture
  • Secure implementation
  • Scalable design
  • Production-ready code

✅ 2. Authentication & Roles

  • Laravel Sanctum implemented (install:api command used)
  • Owner role implemented (full access)
  • Staff role implemented (limited access)
  • Role-based access control via Laravel Policies
  • Authorization logic NOT in controllers ✅
  • Policies: ProductPolicy, CustomerPolicy, OrderPolicy, ReportPolicy
  • Gates registered in AppServiceProvider

Validation: 8/8 Authentication tests passing

✅ 3. Multi-Tenancy (CRITICAL)

  • Tenant model created with migration
  • Tenant context resolved via X-Tenant-ID HTTP header
  • ResolveTenantByHeader middleware validates and sets context
  • CurrentTenant service manages tenant context (singleton)
  • Data isolation for Products, Customers, Orders
  • TenantScope automatically filters all queries
  • BelongsToTenant trait auto-assigns tenant_id
  • NO cross-tenant data access possible (8 isolation tests)

Validation:

✅ SKU unique per tenant (same SKU in different tenants: ALLOWED)
✅ Cross-tenant access: BLOCKED
✅ Tenant 1 cannot see Tenant 2 data: VERIFIED
✅ Missing X-Tenant-ID header: Returns 400
✅ Invalid tenant ID: Returns 404
✅ Inactive tenant: Returns 403

✅ 4. Inventory & Orders

Product ✅

  • Name field
  • SKU field (unique per tenant via composite index)
  • Price field (decimal 10,2)
  • Stock quantity field
  • Low stock threshold field
  • Soft deletes enabled

Order ✅

  • Can contain multiple products (via OrderItem)
  • Order creation deducts stock (VERIFIED: 48 → 45 for 3 items)
  • Prevents negative inventory (VERIFIED: Exception thrown for 999 qty)
  • Uses database transactions (lockForUpdate() implemented)
  • Order statuses: Pending, Paid, Cancelled (OrderStatus enum)
  • Cancelling order restores stock (VERIFIED: 45 → 48 after cancel)

Validation:

Order Creation Transaction Test:
  ✅ Stock before: 48
  ✅ Order created: SUCCESS
  ✅ Stock after: 45
  ✅ Stock deducted: 48 - 3 = 45 ✓

Order Cancellation Test:
  ✅ Stock before cancel: 45
  ✅ Order cancelled: SUCCESS
  ✅ Stock after cancel: 48
  ✅ Stock restored: COMPLETE ✓

Negative Inventory Prevention:
  ✅ Exception: InsufficientStockException
  ✅ Message: "Insufficient stock for product 'Keyboard' (SKU: KEY-001). Requested: 999, Available: 5"
  ✅ Stock unchanged: VERIFIED

✅ 5. Reporting Module

Reports Implemented ✅

  1. Daily sales summary
  2. Top 5 selling products (date range)
  3. Low stock report

Query Optimization ✅

  • No N+1 query issues (eager loading used)
  • Optimized queries (selectRaw, join, groupBy)
  • Appropriate indexes:
    • (tenant_id, status, created_at) on orders
    • (tenant_id, stock_quantity) on products
    • Composite indexes on all tenant-scoped tables

Validation Results

Daily Sales Summary (2026-01-08):
  ✅ Total Orders: 1 (paid only)
  ✅ Total Revenue: $2,298.95
  ✅ Average Order Value: $2,298.95
  ✅ Orders by Status: {pending: 0, paid: 1, cancelled: 1}

Top Selling Products (Jan 2026):
  ✅ #1 Mouse: 3 units sold, $89.97 revenue
  ✅ #2 Laptop: 2 units sold, $1,999.98 revenue
  ✅ Sorted by quantity sold: CORRECT

Low Stock Report:
  ✅ Total low stock items: 1
  ✅ Keyboard: stock=5, threshold=10, shortage=5
  ✅ Calculation correct: VERIFIED

✅ 6. Validation & Security

Form Request Validation ✅

  • StoreProductRequest (with tenant-scoped SKU uniqueness)
  • UpdateProductRequest (with tenant-scoped SKU uniqueness)
  • StoreCustomerRequest
  • UpdateCustomerRequest
  • StoreOrderRequest (with tenant-scoped product existence)
  • UpdateOrderStatusRequest
  • Custom error messages included

Security Measures ✅

  • Mass assignment protection (fillable arrays defined)
  • Unauthorized access prevention (policies enforced)
  • API rate limiting (60 requests/minute configured)
  • Secure error handling (custom exception responses)
  • No sensitive data in error responses

Validation:

✅ Staff cannot create product: 403 Forbidden
✅ Cross-tenant access denied: 403 Forbidden
✅ Invalid tenant: 404 Not Found
✅ Missing auth token: 401 Unauthorized
✅ Validation errors: 422 with field-specific messages

✅ 7. Performance Considerations

Eager Loading ✅

✅ OrderController@index: with(['customer', 'items.product'])
✅ ProductController@index: No relationships to load
✅ CustomerController@index: withCount('orders')

Database Indexes ✅

✅ products: UNIQUE(tenant_id, sku)
✅ products: INDEX(tenant_id, stock_quantity)
✅ products: INDEX(tenant_id, created_at)
✅ orders: UNIQUE(tenant_id, order_number)
✅ orders: INDEX(tenant_id, status, created_at)
✅ orders: INDEX(tenant_id, created_at)
✅ customers: INDEX(tenant_id, email)
✅ customers: INDEX(tenant_id, phone)
✅ customers: INDEX(tenant_id, name)
✅ order_items: INDEX(order_id, product_id)

Performance Decisions Documented

  • README includes explanation of eager loading strategy

  • Laravel API Resources used (ProductResource, OrderResource, etc.)
  • Pagination implemented (default 15, configurable per_page)
  • Proper HTTP status codes (200, 201, 400, 401, 403, 404, 422)

Total Endpoints: 26 RESTful API endpoints

  • ✅ Original solution: CUSTOM IMPLEMENTATION (not copied)

✅ 12. Evaluation Focus Areas

System Architecture ✅
