A. PURPOSE:

These database will store the information about couriers which will be send bye courier agency. If any person want to send any courier, parcel, or letter then he or she will be specify the attribute of the courier agency. Then courier agency match all the information related to the particular courier.

B. MEANING OF COURIER SERVICES:

Courier services means any services provided to a customer, by a courier agency in relation to door-to-door transportation of time sensitive documents, goods or articles.

“Courier agency means a commercial concern engaged in the door-to-door transportation of time sensitive documents, goods or articles, utilizing the services of person, either directly or indirectly, to carry or accompany such goods, documents or articles.”

TAXSIABLE SERVICES:

Any services provided to any customer by a courier agency will be taxable for the courier agency. The value of taxsiable services in relation to services provided by the courier agency shall be the gross amount charge by the courier agency from the customer for services in relation to door-to-door transportation of time sensitive documents goods or articles.

C. SCOPE: System development is also considered as a process backed by engineering approach. We have tried to incorporate & develop

Page 6: Courier Service

new particles for our education particles have been followed not during the but coding but also during the analysis, design phases & in documentation. Courier agency is considered as a expansion of business relations. It contributes a lot by providing quick & fast services of sending documents letters (formal & informal both) to business as it enables any business to flourish.

D. AIM OF PROJECT: The main aim of the project is to develop a application system that meant to partially computerized the work performed by the department. The major function are collecting information about courier agency.

E. OBJECTIVE:The major objective are as follows:

1. The record must be checked by the agency after delivering any document or articles at any time.

2. Collection of all information related to courier.3. Understanding the requirements of agency.4. Providing quick & fast information.5. Online record updations is also possible.

F. VISION STATEMENT: “Being the best at creating the solution that simplify your system”.

Interface Requirement

Page 7: Courier Service

Software Interface

To run the project smoothly some additional softwares are required. Visual basic does not provide the good report generation facility that’s why we use segate crystal report to generate the all reports related to our project.

Hardware Interface

It the project has some additional hardware requirement to run smoothly than these are considered as hardware interface like modem, network card etc. Required for all network and Internet bases projects. But their its not requirement of these types of hardware interface to our project.

Communication Interface

When the project is networking based project than their some are some project like TCP/IP, IPX/SPX etc are required to implement that project but our project had no need of such communication interface.

Design Constraints

Page 8: Courier Service

Standard Compliance

Each and every organization has some specific business rules within over organisation the project is always concentrate all the those business polices and business rules our project follows the all those rules which are given in written form the customer.

Hardware Limitation

Memory – 16 MB RAM

Monitor – PCI/VGA

Printers- Dot Matrix

Keyboard- 104 Keys

Hard Disk- 1.2 GB

Floppy Disk- 1.44 MB

Mouse- 2 Buttons

Processor- 100 MHz

Concurrency Issues:

Concurrency issue are considered when the project is multiuser so these issues details about the lamination of multi-users system but our project is a single user so these issues have no consideration at all.

Performance Required

Page 9: Courier Service

Efficiency

Efficiency tells the accuracy and preciseness of the project. The calculation efficiency depends on the software (i.e. visual basic and M.S. Access limit but we have tried to make as efficiency need project which fulfil the organization need efficiency.

Response Time

The duration between two events when system accepts data provide output response time mainly depends on the processors speed in the machine and complete transition path, which travel they data over project, limited number of modules and thus response time is only fraction as second.

General Desperation

Page 10: Courier Service

Functionalities

Our project is complete GUI based menu driver project so we have to only click to perform any kind of functions because GUI based menu driven system is more user friendly as compared to CUI based system.

Capabilities

Our system can support as much database as MS Access and can support limit is also depends on the software VB and MS Access. We can generate any kind of report but the facts limit is decided by the database.

User Characteristics

This project is operated by many kinds of users within the organization. As for as user characteristic are concerned that any user is able to operate the project in very much skills are not required of training hence very much skills are not required. Thus the user characteristic decide the training decide plan also.

General Constraints

The project is planed only for certain specifics task the it is not a complete automated plan for the organization the project is also restricted to online working.

Functional Environment

Page 11: Courier Service

Configuration Features

Configuration features must be highlighted specially when the project is very vast and used to perform number of indifferent task. But here our project tack. Thus we can not configured the project apart from that specific task.

Production Environment

Page 12: Courier Service

Software

The software used to develop the project are visual basic as front end tool and MS-Access as back end tool.

Operating System

Windows98 is considered as a standard operating system to develop this project but it can also be developed at all derivatives of windows operating system.

Browser

These are specially required when the web pages are included within the project on the project is internet or internet based internet some popular web browser are Internet Explorer, Netscape navigator etc but here no such requirement of this browser.

Server

Servers are all required when the project is web based on internet or internet based project. The popular servers are puts IIS, Apache etc.

System Attributes

Page 13: Courier Service

Application Security

Unauthorized users can not access any kind of information within project for this we are providing the user-id and password to authorized users.

Audit log

During the debug operation application generated certain message which are recorded in a special file but we are not pervading such kind of facilities.

Maintainability

The project is user friendly and provides certain helping tips for manage and maintain the system easily. Due to this small error can b removed by the user himself.

Reliability

The system is completely reliable because during the processing system does not have any problem within it and it performs process completely and effectively.

Portability

Page 14: Courier Service

Current system standard operating system is windows 98 but it is part able to any version or derivatives of windows as well as it can be used with stand alone PC per with network system.

Extensibility

Additional of certain new modules as per the requirement of organization do not afford the remaining project and easily it will be added to fulfil the need of organization.

Reusability

The project has certain generalized modules and these modules can be utilized to extension and enhance the project so reusability of these module make the enhancement very easy.

Theoretical Background

Theoretical Background:

Page 16: Courier Service

The information gathered by the personally visiting the courier agency

Like GATI, FIRST FLIGHT, MADHUR COURIER.

The other sources are websites where we get knowledge of knowing their accounting methods, filling of return for service tax etc.

In this globalization world and cut throat competition in the business, everyone wants to achieve some thing in their field. In this globalization courier agency played a vital role in the individual field on one level it deliver the documents, articles and played a vital role in business field. It played a vital role in getting services, employment. It played a role in making relationship also.

There is always a misconception regarding to the courier agency. Several people has opinion that they can’t handle the articles properly. The Indian post delivered the documents articles late and not properly the private post which is popularly known as the courier service crises. The courier agency is not a safe mode for delivering things but also for delivering gift items, documents, letters in time at low cost on the other hand the post is costly and it takes more time.

Courier agency provides there services in all over the India. They are not only delivering the letter, documents but people are also sending the gold, silver & other articles but insurancing that articles, courier agency is also liable to pay the tax which he ultimately bears by the customer.

Introduction to Visual Basic

Page 17: Courier Service

Visual Basic is a tool that allows you to develop Windows (Graphic User Interface- GUI) applications. The applications have a familiar appearance to the user.

Visual Basic is event-driven; meaning code remains idle until called upon to respond to some event (button pressing, menu selection). Visual Basic is governed by an event processor. Nothing happens until an event is detected. Once an event is detected, the code corresponding to that event (event procedure) is executed. Program control is then returned to the event processor.

Event processor

Event Procedures

Some features of Visual Basic

Full set of objects- you ‘draw’ the application Lots of icons and pictures for your use Response to mouse and keyboard actions Clipboard and printer access Full array of mathematical, string handling, and graphics function Can handle fixed and dynamic variable and control arrays Sequential and random access file support

Structure of a Visual Basic Application

Project(.VBP, .MAK)

Application (Project) is made up of:

Forms- Windows that you create for user interface

Controls- Graphical features drawn on forms to allow user interaction (text boxes, labels, scroll bars, command buttons, etc.) (Forms and Controls are objects.)

Properties- Every characteristics of a form or control is specified by a property. Example properties include names, captions, size, colour, position and contents. Visual Basic applies default properties. You can change properties at design time or run time.

Form 1 (.FRM) Form 2 (.FRM) Form 3 (.FRM) Module 1 (.BAS)

Methods- Built in procedure that can be invoked to impart some action to a particular object.

General Procedures- Code not related to objects. This code must be invoked by the application.

Modules- Collection of general procedures, variable declarations, and constant definitions used by application.

Steps in Developing Applications

There are three primary steps involved in building a Visual Basic application:

1. Draw the user interface2. Assign properties to controls3. Attach code to controls.

Introduction to MS Access

Page 20: Courier Service

Microsoft Access is a database program, which allows you to store and manage large collections of information so that they can be easily added to, updated, viewed and organised. A database is a collection of information that is related to a particular topic. The Access ’97 database is made up of the following parts:

Tables: A table is a collection of information about something specific within the database. You can have more than one table in the database. A table consists of fields and records.

Field: This is a category of information that applies to all the items in the table for instance the first names of everyone on your mailing list.

Record: A record is all the information about one item in your table in the mailing list example a record could contain the person’s first and last name, address, telephone number and her birthday.

Forms: A form focuses on one record at a time and provides a quick way to enter and change information in the database.

Queries: A query allows you to find information based on your specified criteria for example you could find all the people in your mailing list who live in a particular state or have the last name Schwarzenegger.

Reports: A report allows you to perform calculations and create summaries of the information on your table.

Definition of Problem

Definition of Problems

Page 22: Courier Service

In the current scenario there are many problem prevailing in “INDIAN POST SYSTEM”. The current existing system more based on human resources. As the post is government department the multiple problems and impossible to taken into consideration neither proper information is given by courier agencies. It is time consuming and faced problem. Thus number of updations are done in database are not properly preserved at a time multiple updations are not possible, not proper information of updations are given by agencies.

This services are not globally accepted in agency, which require at the time of delivering. One of the problem of agency is that there is number of updations done in database at per second as courier services is recently globally accepted by the people very less often information updated by them. Neither these agencies are able and maintained to give up return feedback.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS & DESIGN

Main purpose served by the system

Page 24: Courier Service

The system serves the basic purpose of facilitating easy, efficient and accurate access to the record. The normal process followed till now was very unwieldy and cumbersome and took a large amount to access any record. Besides, using this system, it takes as much time to search for one record as for ten records. This system also uses the facility to modify old data and also to take the information in the form of printout.

ANALYSIS OF THE SYSTEM

System analysis is defined to process and examines the business situation through better procedure and methods. System design is the process of planning a new business system or one to replace or completing an existing system.

System analysis is the process of gathering and interpreting fact & diagnosing problem to recommend important to the system. Analysis specifies what the system should do design states how to accomplish the objective.

Information gathered through the study forms the basis for creating alternative design strategies. Management selects the strategy to purpose. Virtually all organisations are systems that interact with their environment through receiving inputs and producing outputs.

Analyses are responsible for developing information systems that are useful to management and employees in business system. The results are useful in adjusting system activities to improve performance. Self-Regulation and self-adjustment are desirable design objectives in system environment.

Page 25: Courier Service

System analyst is about understanding situations. Effective analyst emphasizes investigation and questioning to learn how a system currently operates and to identify the requirements for the user. Only after analyst fully understands the system are they able to analyze it and assemble recommendations for system design.

Analysis:

Page 26: Courier Service

DESIGN OF THE SYSTEM

After the detailed analysis of the existing system comes the most challenging of all the phases in the system life cycle design phase.

In this phase the design of the new system, one that meets the user requirements is prepared. The first step in this phase is preliminary design in which a general design plan is prepared and after that a detailed design for the system output, input, screen, processing and files are prepared.

The system is designed keeping in mind the following goals suitability i.e. make sure the system meets the user requirements, reliability i.e. user can count on the system to work as specified and to produce valid and accurate output, simplicity and ease of use.

DESIGNING THE OUTPUT

The outputs are designed by determine what information is to be produced? What is the media for layout? Where, when and how the output should be presented to the intended recipient. As in this system not all information is used by each user. Thus only required information received by the end users, thus there is no interference by manipulation of data.

DESIGNING THE INPUT

Designing of the screen for system have been designed with a thought keeping in mind that it is very user friendly to the end user easy to operate and error free. By selecting the menu appropriate messages are displayed at bottom of screen to indicate what action to be taken text. For end user when it enters the data it must be given hint to help him about what is to be entered and which as legal. Also balloon help must be displayed for various buttons.

Page 27: Courier Service

DESIGNING OF FILES

Depending on the nature of the contents of files that is, whether the data stored for transaction or permanent or is the reference information. Designing of the files includes the record format i.e. the length of record and characteristics of its data. It includes the specifications of arrangements of records on database of the type of data, the data which don’t directly depend on the element are also grouped separately, all the files are sequenced in indexed from supporting quickest retrieval or data required.

Data Flow Diagram

The functional model consists of multiple data flow diagrams which specify the meaning of operations & constraints. A DFD shows the functional relationships of the values computed by a system including input, output & internal data stores. A data flow data is a graph showing the flow of data from their sources in object through processes that transform them to their destinations in other objects.

System Development and Life Cycle

SYSTEM DEVELOPEMENT LIFE CYCLE

System development a process consisting of the two major steps of systems analysis and design. It starts when management or sometimes

Page 34: Courier Service

system development personnel feel that a new system or an improvement in the existing system is required. The systems development life cycle is classically thought of as the set of activities that Analyst’s designers and users carry out to develop and implement an information system. The systems development life cycle consists of the following activities:

Requirement Analysis and Specification

Determination of System Requirements

At the heart of system analysis is a details understanding of all important facets of the business area under investigation. The key questions are:

What is being done? How is it being done? How frequently does it occur? How well is the being performed? Does a problem exist?

To answer the above question, system analysts discuss with different category of personas to collect the facts about the business process and their opinions of why thing happen as they do and their views for changing the exiting process.

Page 35: Courier Service

Feasibility Analysis

Feasibility Analysis and Report

Economic feasibility: The cost of developing this project is merely the man-hours that are put into it, apart from this, on the institutional front

Page 36: Courier Service

the costs that it will be bearing is to comply with the minimum system requirements for the same.

Economic feasibility report: Since the institution that will employ this project already has the required facilities, this project is economically feasible.

Technical feasibility: The minimum hardware configuration for his Project to run is as follows:

Methodology Adopted &

Software and Hardware Requirement

Methodology Adopted

The project has been made using the concepts of Object Oriented Programming (OOP). Since the project mostly deals with the user

Page 43: Courier Service

interface and the concept is not revolving around the Data part only the most suitable methods for developing the same was OOP.

The Process Model that has been used here is the Components Assembly Model (CAM). CAM is evolutionary in nature, demanding a iterative approach to the creation of software. However, the component assembly model composes applications from pre-packaged software component (called Classes).

CAM has its 4 main basic components:

Customer Communication Planning Risk Analysis Engineering construction & Release Customer Evaluation

Customer Communication:

Given the lack of a system that provides any useful information in concise manner giving the user the power of choice, there is a need for such a system that will fulfil the needs as well as provide some additional facilities.Planning:

The solution- Stock Control System that provides easy access to the user, which also enables him to view the information as per his choice.

Risk Analysis:

Since the only investment in this project is that of the man-hours used in developing it hence it does not pose a threat in economical area. Technically also since its minimum hardware and software requirements

Page 44: Courier Service

are now commonly found hence that is not a problem either. Operation wise, there is no need for training the user since the project is extremely user friendly and also has a help facility, thus there is no operational hassle, and hence this project is Risk Free.

Engineering, Construction and Release:

The project has been engineered using Visual Basic at the user end and Ms Access at the back end.

TESTING

TESTING

Testing: The testing of this project was carried out in various stages. The primary testing was carried out at the Designing phase where each module was tested as soon as it was created. The Second phase of testing was carried out after integration of the modules. The third and final testing was carried out through Cyclomatic Complexity- a system of data within such a domain that would test each and every line of the code as well as ensure the integrity of the project. This method was sufficient enough to recognize the loop holes present and also enabled us to remove them.

Page 47: Courier Service

System Testing: Testing is an intension to find an error in the system during the development, the basic Objective of testing are:

1. To test the software with intent to find errors.2. A good test case i s the one, which finds some yet

undiscovered errors.

During the development, the software has to pass through the number of stages. At each of these stages, we have the probability to committing the errors, because specification might be faulty or the design may have errors. It is actually the inability of the human to communicate with perfection that introduces a step of quality assurance, which is carried out after software development. Testing represent the ultimate review of specification, designing and coding. Testing is carried out with the intent of finding errors, which always exists in software, no matter how straight way the checks may be. This step can never show the defeats, it can only show their presence.

Page 48: Courier Service

DESIGN

DESIGN

System Design

After the detailed analysis of the existing system comes the most challenging of all phases in the system life cycle the design phase.

In this phase the design of the new system. One that meets the user requirements is prepared the first step in this phase was preliminary design in which a general design plan was prepared and after that a

Page 49: Courier Service

detailed design for the system output, input, processing and files was prepared.

The system was design keeping in the mind the following goals suitable i.e. make sure the system meets the user requirements, reliability i.e. user can count on the system to work as specific to work as specific and to produce valid and accurate output simplicity and easy to use.

The design of an information system produces the details that how a system will meet the requirement identified during system analysis. This stage is referred to as logical design and the process of developing programmed software is known as physical design. System design has two phases.

1. Preliminary Design2. Detail Design

PRELIMINARY DESIGN PHASE

After analysing the current system and identifying the current requirements the preliminary design is prepared. Preliminary design is concerned with the transformation. In this phase context diagram for the system cycle and entity relationship diagram data flow diagram are prepared. This help in designing and deciding different forms screens responses temporary files and their attributes. In designing of the system we used the result of system analysis the first step is the preliminary designing is to identify the entities involved in the system. The entities are identified on the basis of different activities taking place in the system. After the identification of various sections their relationships are established on the basis of their functioning. This will lead to foundation of logical database. The logical database is the result of preliminary design phase. In this phase after identifying the main modules of the proposed system, fields involved in the database are also identified.

Page 50: Courier Service

PRELIMINARY DESING OF THE PROPOSED SYSTEM

In the preliminary design we arrange the different sections identified during analysis phase according to their relationship and their functionality. In this phase context diagram that is interlacing of various sections involved is the system are shown.

DETAILED DESIGN OF PROPOSED SYSTEM

After the designs of the logical structure and the physical structure have been designed in this phase the input is taken from the preliminary design phase and the actual structure is designed. The screens and table format of the system are also designed in this phase. The physical design is compared with the logical design and all the required corrections have been made in the physical design. Designing is done keeping in mind the coding strategy. After the physical design the main processes involved in the system are prepared on the basis of the flow chart and the data flow diagrams.

The detail design consists of input an output and design of the proposed system. In this phase modular design is an important activity modularity means the proposed system should be divided into separable names and addressable elements called modules. These module are integrated to satisfy the problem requirements. The biggest advantage of the modularity is in the maintenance of the system.

INPUT DESIGN

The design decisions for handling input specify that how data are accepted for computer processing. These are two ways to enter the data one is directly and another is by using source documents such as variables.

OBJECTIVES OF INPUT DESIGN

The quality of system input determines the quality of the system output. Input specifications describe manner in which data enter the

Page 51: Courier Service

system for the processing. Input Design features can ensure the reliability of the system and produce results from the accurate data, or they can result production of erroneous information.

Effectiveness Accuracy Easy to use

Page 52: Courier Service

Implementation

IMPLEMENTATION

Implementation: It is the process of having system personnel check out and put new equipment into use, trained user, install the new application and construct any files of data needed to use it.

Depending upon the size of the organisation that will be involved in using the application and risk associated with its use, system developers may use to pilot the operation in only one area of the film, say in one department or with only one or two persons. Some times they will run old and new systems together to compare the results. In still other situations developers will stop using the old system one-day and begin using the new one the next.

Page 53: Courier Service

As we will see, each implementation strategy has its merits depending upon on the business situation in which it is considered. Regardless of the implementation strategy used, developers strive to ensure that the systems initial use is trouble free.

Once installed, applications are often used for many years, however both the organization and the users will change and the environment will be different over weeks and months. Therefore the application will be undoubtedly have to maintain modification and changes will be made to the software, files or procedure to meet user requirements. Since the organisation system and business environment undergo continuous change; the information system should keep pace. In this sense, implementation is an on going process.

CONCLUSION

CONCLUSION

The system has been designed to be flexible as possible allowing updations done. At the same time, multiple updations are allowed in the system, there will be consistence preservation excite may be hosted by any of the sophisticated user or naive user, in a securely managed environment.

The system must gathering information about courier agency may be updated by visiting their agencies at same time. The multiple system can also be taken as consideration. There will be consistence preservation excited may be hosted.

The basic need of this project is to reduce the difficulties in order to perform the whole process. In the current scenario there are

Page 55: Courier Service

many problems prevailing in existing system. The existing system more based on human resources. Its time consuming and faced problem during updations. In this existing system problem are solved, also provide better security facility towards regular updations, also save time.

The basic need of these project is highlight the problem concerned with mailpost and at the same time lightening the quick and fast services of courier agency. These system are less time and money consuming.
