Sales Transaction Data Analysis using Apriori Algorithm to Determine the Layout of the Goods

Abstract

In a shop, usually apply a sales strategy in order. The sales strategy can be in the form of determining the layout of goods so that they are close to one another. Determining the layout of items can be based on items that are often purchased simultaneously. Searching for items that are often purchased together can be done using data mining techniques, which is processing data to become more useful information. Sales transaction data processing can be done using apriori algorithm. Apriori algorithm is the most famous algorithm for finding high-frequency patterns and generating association rules. From the results of the discussion and data analysis, there were 3 (three) association rules formed, namely "If you buy Milo Active 18 grm, then buy ABC Kopi Susu 31G" with support 0.36% and 75% confidence, "If you buy Dancow 1 + Honey 200 grm, then buy Ice Cream Corneto" wit H Support 0.36% and confidence 60%, "If you buy SIIP Roasted 6.5 grm, then buy Davos Strong 10 grm" with support 0.36% and 75% confidence. From the association's rules can be used as decision making to determine the layout of goods that are likely to be purchased simultaneously by the buyer
