You need to include #include <string>

thanks for that, but still not working the problem is that the output is suppose to be the list of the inputted values but the program carries the last value and replace it for the rest

What are this errors?

One thing: You need an array of recorde e.g.

Inventory record[100]; // The index (i) must not exceed 99

otherwise you will see only the very last record data.


Alternatively you better have a vector of record:
