1. Introduction
i.

Purpose:

This document contains the software requirements for the Car Rental System CRS. The main
purpose of a Car Rental System to be implemented is to manage information about Cars,
Customers and the system users related to the company.

This is the first version of the SRS document. The purpose of this document is to state all system
requirements clearly for usage in the development stages ahead.

This document is meant to be viewed by the project development team, users and the
stakeholders. All requirements for the system have been stated clearly in the document and this
is used to make sure that everyone related to the system directly or indirectly understands all
requirements stated in this document.

ii.

Scope:
This document covers the entire system and all its subparts. The purpose of this system is as
follows:

Efficiency:
This system provides quick addition, deletion or search for various types of data which are a
part of the system. This decreases the process time for employees and manual search work
that could take hours can be done in just a few seconds or minutes.

Accurate Records:
There is no fear of manipulation of records by unauthorized personnel. All records stored in
the system are protected. Files in storage may catch fire or be spoilt in water. But data
storage in repositories reduces those risks.

Accountability:
Any transaction made through the system is kept track of and in case anything goes wrong
with customer dealings, the fault can be traced back to the origin very easily.

Generating Reports:
The system is capable of producing weekly and monthly reports on cars, customers and
system users.

2. Overall Description
The main purpose of this document is to give details about what the user can expect from the Car Rental
System (CRS). This document provides an important overview of the system according to the requirements
that have been given to us during the requirement analysis for this Car Rental System (CRS).
In the next section, we introduce product perspective followed by description of product features and user
requirements in section 2. User and user characteristic in section 3 followed by general constrains in
section 4. In section 5 we have assumptions and dependencies.

i.

Product Perspective
Our company has been handed over the task to carry out the requirements analysis to implement a
Car Rental System (CRS). We want this software to completely be a front desk system and hence
will only be used by the salespeople and an Branch manager and administrator. We have realized
that there are three ways to implement the Car Rental System (CRS) and they are stated as follows

The existing software at the company can be upgraded to form the new Car Rental System
(CRS).

A new Car Rental System (CRS) can be created from scratch.

We can follow the Component based development technique to create the system from
scratch.

We believe that the best way to implement the Car Rental System (CRS) is to create a new one. The
reasons are as follows

In case we plan to upgrade the existing system, then we will have to work on integrating the
system with a legacy system database. This might create problems for us since experts in the
legacy system are not readily and cheaply available.

We will be able to create a system of better quality. This will be possible if we review the faults
in the old system and learn from the mistakes made during the various processes that were
involved to create the old system.

The new system will have better performance due to usage of new and time efficient data
searching algorithms which will increase the efficiency of the workplace.

The new system will provide a new user friendly Graphic User Interface (GUI) which will also
help to increase the efficiency of the work place.

The new system will be compatible with a new database that will be created along with it. A
new database has to be created due to the increase in the amount and type of information that
has to be stored.

Page 9

Car Rental System (CRS)


www.shaeqkhan.com
January 28, 2010
The new system will be able to undergo evolution in a much simpler way and will be more
adaptable to the changing systems. The upcoming changes in the near future will be predicted
and the system will be designed in a way to adapt to the changes that will occur over the years.

Figure 1: The above diagram shows the actors and the subsystems contained in the Car Rental System.

The system allows the stake holders to run an efficient business by providing company reports, stock
inventory and sales information data. All these functionalities of the system provided in a timely and
organized way will help the business to expand to generate more revenue and prevent losses.

Product Features and User Requirements


The following are the features of the product

User Account Management:


The system will allow every Receptionist, Accountant, Fleet inspection and Dispatch to have a
different account to login from. This will keep a record of their work time without them having to
enter it every time they leave or enter the workplace.

Sales Record system:


The system will allow all the salesmen account to keep a record of the sales that have been made
by the account for the week in order to calculate the commission and monthly to calculate the
bonus to be awarded by the company.

System Backup:
The system will have a 24 hour backup to record car rental applications from users in case the
server goes down.

High system security:


The system will employ a fulltime high security antivirus and a secure network so that the system
cannot be illegally modified or hacked into.

Car Information system:


This system gives the ability to the company to keep track of the information on all the cars that are
available in the branchs stock. All relevant information related to the car such as colour, license
plate, registration, model number, insurance etc. is stored in the system database. It will record the
cars ages and update their condition and rent life. The system will show the cars status (whether
under maintenance, available or rented). The system will provide information about the rate of rent
for a car for different periods of time (weekdays, weekends, holidays, Umrah).

User Information System:


This system gives the ability to the company to keep track of the information on the customers in
order to classify their association with the company. All customers will be classified according to the
frequency with which they rent cars and offer them satisfactory discounts for usage.

Emergency Issue System:


In case of emergency, if a car is not available, the Receptionist, Accountant, Fleet inspection and
Dispatch can view the inventory of other branches and issue a car.

Page 11

Car Rental System (CRS)

www.shaeqkhan.com

January 28, 2010

Bank to Branch Link System:


When a customer will pay using a bank card rather than cash, it is necessary that a link is always
maintained between the branch and bank for successful transaction.

Data Backup System:


In case the system goes down due to server crashes or power failure or any other calamity, all
operations are being run such as updating data, carrying requests etc. will be saved to a backup
system. All of this will then be copied on to the original database as soon as the system is up and
running.

User and User Characteristics

The main people who have been identified as regular system users are as follows
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Branch Manager
Administrator.
Receptionist
Accountant
Fleet Inspection
Dispatch Department

The users can be classified according to their frequency of use, subset of product functions used,
technical expertise, security or privilege levels, educational level, or experience they have to the Car
Rental System (CRS).

Branch manager and administrator are supposed to have the following characteristics
o On the whole, Branch manager and administrator spend comparatively lesser time than others
on the system. Usually they would access the system when they are required to make reports or
something else.
o They should have high technical expertise. They have to be fluent in the system usage and
should be well aware of all the system functionalities.
o Branch manager and administrator have access to all security levels as they have to access and
maintain the system occasionally.
o Branch manager and administrator should have experience in handling a system of this domain.
He must be able to identify errors caused due to improper data entries.

Receptionist, Accountant, Fleet Inspection and Dispatch Department supposed to have the
following characteristics
o They spend the maximum amount of time on the system in the form of entering information,
updating it or deleting the information.
o They are not required to have technical expertise. The most they would need is to be computer
literate to understand the working of the system and use it efficiently.
o They have very low security access. They cannot access quite a few functionalities of the system
except the ones they really have to use.
o They should have good communication skills and even if they have no experience in system

General Constraints
These are some of the constraints that can be faced by the Car Rental System (CRS)

Schedule and Resource Constraints


o Time can be listed as a constraint. We are expected to finish this SRS document within 4 months
with distractions in between due to the time demanded by the other courses.
o There may be budget constraints where the allocated amount for implementation might not be
enough.
o To understand the things that were missing from the previous software, we may need the old
requirements documents to identify the features that are required now. There is a possibility
that the old system documents have been damaged due to improper storage or misplaced.

Political Constraints
o It may be a long procedure to acquire access to the Ministry database for customer
identification.

Technology Constraints
o The branch may house defective hardware which can delay the deployment of our system.

v.

Assumption and Dependencies


We have made the following assumptions to the development of the Car Rental System (CRS)

We assume that the development team has all the softwares and tools that will be required to
complete this project on time.

We assume that at the time of the system deployment, the branches will have computers with
the minimum system requirements as per required by the software for efficient runtime.

We assume that our project team has been finalized and no new member will be added nor a
present member will leave the group in the middle of the project.

We assume that all the requirements we get from our sources are correct and achievable.

These are a few dependencies we have for the system

The system is based dependent on ministry database.


The system has efficient run time on Windows platform.
The system is dependent on bank for processing payments on time.

Evolution
i. Assumptions on which system is based

The system is designed initially for only one branch.


The system will connected to the interior ministry database, police database and bank
servers.
Every user has his own account and no one can access the others' accounts.
The system will be entirely managed by the administrator.

ii. Anticipated changes:

Technology and Hardware changes:


o In the next versions, the system will contain online services for booking and get
information, so they need to provide them with internet connection and modems.
o We will add GPS services to each car in the company, so the system will contain GPS
devices to follow cars for security.
o Later versions of the system will be based on touch screens to increase the efficiency.
o As a probability of companys growing in the market, we will arrange the cars in the fleet
in a systematic way according to our system which will contain a map for the fleet and
when they need a car, they can enter a specific information and get its place in the map.
o To give customers more services with easier process, we will implement our system in
machines like ATM and they will be distributed according to the company's desire.

Changing User Needs:


o The company may need to increase the number of the branches, so these branches need
flexible communications in the process of serving the customer from different areas.
o The company may want to add, merge or remove departments form the company.
o The company may change their current process of booking a car.
