READYMADE COMPUTER SCIENCE PROJECTS for students of all Indian universities.
INTRODUCTION OF COURIER SERVICES
In the modern age, as time moves on, needs &
requirements of a person are also increased. People want more facilities and
try to do their task quickly with least time. But they can not get all the
things at nearest market or area, so they have to import the things from any
place in the world.
Within the country, the things can be
imported through post service. But it consumes the time and sometimes problems
of damage or missing parcels occur. Where as in the international market, the one way
is shipping. But this also requires more time.
The courier service is one of the solutions
of these problems. It is used to send some things to any person in the world
in the least time.
The courier company has number of branches,
which are spread over the country or the world, so that when person wants to
send things then he has to contact the nearest courier service branch. The
courier company creates the schedule and gives internal/external services.
The courier service work as destination office or source office. The source
office branch receives the order means consignments and sends it to the
destination courier branch. The company makes certain charges according to the
weight of the consignment.
Using the courier service person can easily
send his/her parcel to other person in the particular destination within time. Now a days, 50% of companies of the world use the services of various
courier companies.

LIMITATIONS OF THE EXISTING MANUAL SYSTEM
♠
Using manual courier services, we have to make the whole Export Report,
which contains the record of the
consignments. It requires more time & more calculation.
♠
In courier service the rate of the each consignment or item is fixed. The rate
of consignments is depending on the weight of the consignments. So the
calculation of rate & monthly income are not done easily.
♠
In courier services, the payment is made in credit or cash. So for the billing
procedure for the regular customer, we have to refer all the records in Export
Report. For this reasons this task is more time consuming.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
Computerizing of the existing system
is done with the help of some programming language & some database
packages. So it will ease the work of the system.
When system work as source then in
consignment note.
Here the organization is fixed, which is
‘ANAND’. So the person does not need to enter it every time.
♠
It leaves the scope for destination, so the person can select desire
destination.
♠ It takes
current date it means system date. So that person need not to be entered it very time.
♠ AMD-C
contains consignment no. It is unique no. & it is use in Manifest &
Delivery Run Sheet forms.
♠ If the
consignor is regular then user should not need to enter his/her name &
address. It can be derived from the stored database.
♠ If the
consignor is not regular then the user has to enter the information about
consignor.
♠
The information of the consignee means receiver has to be entered by user.
♠ The
description, which contains declare value, insurance, weight in kilo, weight in
grammes, the user enters packets. In this declare value is chosen according to
the kilograms & grammes describe in form from the Rate table.
♠
If any consignment contains insurance then it is marked in the form.
♠ The no. of
packets, charges, special charges, and service tax is entered by the user &
according to this ‘Total Rs.’ is calculated.
Then three copies of this consignment
note are prepared.
Now all the entered data are stored in
database name as Consignment_Details and Consignor_Info.
In the Manifest form, the user enters the
name of the destination on which user want to create Manifest.
♠ According
to the entered destination, all the appropriate consignment nos. are displayed
automatically in Manifest.
♠ The no. of
consignment, total weight, total no. of
bags are counted by performing some operation on them.
After this Manifest form is send to
the destination branch with the consignments.
When
the branch acts as Destination branch, then
Here the branch received Consignments
& Manifest. Then it prepares Delivery Run Sheet according to Manifest. It
fills information about
-
Branch Name \ Regional office
-
Consignment No
-
Date
-
Pieces
-
Name & address of consignee
Here we need not to enter the date because it
automatically takes the system date. Above information are stored in
‘Dest_Consignment_Details’.
After that delivery boy of the destination
branch send the consignment to appropriate consignee.

quickly done.
