The document outlines various approaches to the structure of Management Information Systems (MIS), including operational elements, activity subsystems, and decision support. It emphasizes the importance of physical components, processing functions, user outputs, and organizational functions within MIS. Additionally, it explores strategies for decision-making and the roles of different subsystems such as production, marketing, finance, and logistics.

- 2. Module II (Syllabus) Approaches to the structure of MIS Multiple approaches to the structure of MIS: • Operational elements (physical components, process, and outputs for users), • Activity subsystems • Functional subsystems • Decision support 2
- 3. MIS Basic Structural Concepts o Multiple approaches to the structure of MIS 3
- 4. Multiple approaches to Structure of MIS Gordon B Davis, Margrethe H Olson • Conceptual Structure • MIS Structure based on Operating Elements (Physical Component, Processing Function, Output to users) • MIS Structure based on Management Activity • MIS Structure based on Organisational Function • MIS Structure based on Decision Making 4
- 5. Based on Physical Components Hardware E.g. CPU, Monitor, Keyboard, Printer etc. Software E.g. System and Application S/W Database E.g. Data stored in files Procedures E.g. Manuals etc. Operating Personnel E.g. Computer Operators, Programmers, System Analysts, System Manager etc. Input & Output E.g. Printouts, Reports etc. 5 MIS Structure based on Operating Elements
- 6. Based on Processing Functions To Process Transactions E.g. Making a purchase or a sale of a product. To Maintain Master Files E.g. For preparing an employee’s salary, required data items are Basic Pay, Allowances, Deductions etc To Produce Reports E.g. Specific or Adhoc reports To Process Enquiries E.g. Regular or Adhoc enquiry. To Process interactive Support Applications E.g. Applications designed for planning, analysis and decision making 6 MIS Structure based on Operating Elements
- 7. Based on Output for Users Transaction documents or screens Preplanned reports Preplanned inquiry responses Adhoc reports and inquiry responses 7 MIS Structure based on Operating Elements
- 8. MIS Structure based on Management Activity Strategic Planning Tactical Planning Operational Planning 8

MIS Structure based on Organisational Function Production Subsystem Planning & control production of goods & service Marketing Subsystem Planning, promotion & sale, new products & new markets HR Subsystem Recruitment, placement, compensation, T&D Finance & Accounting Subsystem Granting credit to customers, cash mgt & financial arrangement, prepares important financial statements Logistics Subsystem Purchase requisitions, manufacturing orders, receiving reports & shipping orders Information Processing Subsystems Requests for processing, changes in data & program 10
