Introduction

It is known globally that, in todays market, it is extremely difficult to start a new smallscale business and its sustenance with competition from the well-established and settled/brand owners. Most often, even if the quality of the product is really good, due to a lack of advertisement or business at the small scale, it just becomes another face in the sea, and the product does not reach a larger group of customers. In fast paced life of today when everyone is squeezed for time, the majority of people are finicky when it comes to doing physical shopping. Logistically, a consumer finds a product more interesting and attractive when they find it on the website of a retailer directly and are able to see items details online. The customers of today are not only attracted because online shopping is very convenient, but also because they have broader selections, highly competitive prices, better information about the product (including peoples reviews) and extremely simplified navigation for searching regarding the product. Moreover, business owners often offer online shopping options at low rates because the overhead expenses in opening and running a physical store are higher. Further, with online shopping, their products have access to a worldwide market, which increases the number of customers from different ethnic groups, adds customer value, and overall sustainable in the marketing. Online web stores, such as Amazon and eBay, have gained huge popularity over the years because one can buy almost everything at these stores. These web stores also give an opportunity to a lot of small-scale companies and manufactures to reach the global market and to directly sell their products to people without involving different other companies or middlemen before their product can reach the shelves of a physical store.

1.1 What is E-commerce:- Electronic commerce or ecommerce is a term for any type of business, or commercial transaction, that involves the transfer of information across the Internet. It covers a range of different types of businesses, from consumer based retail sites, through auction or music sites, to business exchanges TRADING goods and services between corporations. It is currently one of the most important aspects of the Internet to emerge.Working of E-commerce:- The consumer moves through the internet to the merchant's web site. From there, he decides that he wants to purchase something, so he is moved to the online transaction server, where all of the information he gives is encrypted. Once he has placed his order, the information moves through a private gateway to a Processing Network, where the issuing and acquiring banks complete or deny the transaction. This generally takes place in no more than 57seconds.

There are many different payment systems available to accommodate the varied processing needs of merchants, from those who have a few orders a day to those who process thousands of transactions daily.With the addition of Secure Layer Technology-commerce is also a very safe way to complete transactions.1.2 Type of E-commerce:- Business-to-business (B2B) Business-to-Consumer (B2C) Business-to-government (B2G) Consumer-to-consumer (C2C) Government to consumer (G2C) Government-to-business (G2B)

Business-to-business (B2B):- B2B e-commerce is simply defined as ecommerce between companies. About 80% of e-commerce is of this type.Examples:- Heinz selling ketchup to Mc Donalds Intell selling microprocessor to Dell

System Analysis & Implementation

2.1 Recruitments Analysis:-2.2.1 Product Perspective:-The online shopping-cart application is a web-based system. It can be accessed using Internet Explorer 8.0 and above, Mozilla Firefox 2.0, and Google Chrome.

2.2.2 User Interface:- The two interface types found in the online shopping-cart application are as follows: 1. User Interface: Users are able to view the home page of the shopping-cart application, browse the different categories, browse and add any number of items from any categories in the shopping cart, look for information about each product, delete the items in the shopping cart, save the cart for later viewing, check out or continue shopping after adding the item to the cart, and check out the items by completing the required information in the order form.

2. Admin Interface: The administrator is able to view the users information that was entered during checkout in the database, can update the information, price, shipping costs of the items, add or remove items from the main display

2.1.3.. Hardware Interface: The online shopping-cart application shall provide minimum hardware requirements. The following hardware configurations are required for a PC using the online shopping-cart application: Pentium processor10 32 MB of free hard-drive space 128 MB of RAM

2.2.4Software Interface:-This section lists the requirements that are needed to run the system efficiently. The operating system needed for the system to run effectively, the interface to run the application follow: Adobe Dreamviwer CS6 Xamp ServerAdobe Dreamviwer CS6:- AdobeDreamweaveris a software program for designing web pages, essentially a more fully featured HTML web and programming editor. The program provides a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) interface for users to create and edit web pages in a more user-friendly environment. Dreamweaver supports multiple web and programming languages including HTML, C#, Visual Basic (VB), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Active Server Pages (ASP), ExtensibleMarkup Language(XML) and others. The program is also available in a number of languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional), Italian, Russian, and more.Dreamweaver was originally developed and published byMacromediain 1997.Adobe purchased Macromedia (which included the rights to Dreamweaver)

in 2005 and continued the development of the program. The many features of Dreamweaver make it a versatile web editing tool, where it be for creating complex or very simples sites.Xamp Server:-It is a free open source cross-platform web server package.

2.1.1 Figure Xamp server 2.2 Platform Requirements:- Wordpress Woo Commerce PluguinsWordpress:- An open source blogging tool and publishing platform that can be customized into a content management system (CMS).Other words we can say WordPress is web software you can use to create a beautiful website or blog. We like to say that WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time Examples wordpress websites:- CNN Time Magazine TechCrunch

Figure 2.2.2 Wordpress Dashboard

What is CMS(content management system):-A content management system (CMS) is a system used to manage the content of a Web site. Typically, a CMS consists of two elements: the content management application (CMA) and the content delivery application (CDA). The CMA element allows the content manager or author, who may not know Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), to manage the creation, modification, and removal of content from a Web site without needing the expertise of a Webmaster. The CDA element uses and compiles that information to update the Web site. The features of a CMS system vary, but most include Web-based publishing, format management, revision control, and indexing, search, and retrieval.

How to install Wordpress in web server:-Download the Wordpress through internet site:www.wordpress.org Download it and Unpack files Paste extract files to the physical path of the server C:\XAMPP\htdocs Rename the file wp-config-sample to wp-config and save it Open the file and set databasename, username, password

Figure 2.2.3 Install Wordpress

Database setup with XAMPP in Wordpress To access database WP will need Mysql-database which has a name SQL-Username the appropriate password the database host is localhost With XAMPP username and password are root to create a database use PhpMyAdmin http://localhost/XAMPP Login the Wordpress Before you can make any changes to your site, you will need to log in. The login for your site is

typically found at the following URL - http://your-wordpress-site.com/wp-admin. Obviously, replace your-wordpress-site.com with your actual domain name.Woo Commerce Pluguins:-Woo Commerce is the most popular open source e-commerce plug-in for Wordpress. It is designed for small to large-sized online merchants using Wordpress. Launched on September 27, 2011, the plug-in quickly became famous for its simplicity to install and customization and being free in nature

System Design & Specification

In order to design a web site, the relational database must be designed first. Conceptual design can be divided into two parts: The data model and the process model. The data model focuses on what data should be stored in the database while the process model deals with how the data is processed. To put this in the context of the relational database, the data model is used to design the relational tables. The process model is used to design the queries that will access and perform operations on those tables.

3.1 Data Model:- A data model is a conceptual representation of the data structures that are required by a database. The first step in designing a database is to develop an Entity-Relation Diagram (ERD). The ERD serves as a blue print from which a relational database maybe deduced. Figure 3.1.1 shows the ERD for the project and later we will show the transformation from ERD to the Relational model.

Entity A matches exactly one record in entity B and every record in B matches exactly one record in A. One to many means that every record in A matches zero or more records in B and every record in B matches exactly one record in A. If there is a one to many relationships between two entities, then these entities are represented as Associative Entities. In the Relational Database model, each of the entities will be transformed into a table. The tables are shown below along with the attributes.

3.2 E-R-Diagram:-

Figure 3.2.1 E-R-Diagram

3.3. Data Flow Diagram (DFD):-Data Flow Diagrams show the flow of data from external entities into the system, and from one process to another within the system.

There are four symbols for drawing a DFD: Rectangles representing external entities, which are sources or destinations of data. Ellipses representing processes, which take data as input, validate and process it and output it. Arrows representing the data flows, which can either, be electronic data or physical items. Open-ended rectangles or a Disk symbol representing data stores, including electronic stores such as databases or XML files and physical stores such as filing cabinets or stacks of paper.

Each process within the system is first shown as a Context Level DFD and later as a Detailed DFD. The Context Level DFD provides a conceptual view of the process and its surrounding input, output and data stores. The Detailed DFD provides a more detailed and comprehensive view of the interaction among the sub-processes within the system.
