SHOPPING MALL MANAGEMENT

SYSTEM

By
Team Members:

 INTRODUCTION

Company Profile:
The Aim Shopping Mall Management System is to manage the shopping
mall and its related modules (admin, customer, supplier, employee and stock
item, parking, bill, product) in such a way that there is smooth flow for a Mall
to manage and run business successfully and systematically ,by satisfying
customers demand and gaining maximum profits. There are total 36 forms
which are in Flow and 7 are reports in our project "Shopping Mall Management
System" ,this will make the work easy for recording, making entries, storing
large amount of data, retrieving information from database and at a good speed
for 'Managing Mall'.

Introduction to System:
The project has been designed in order to provide a working overview of
the Shopping Mall Management System, through which records can be
maintained efficiently in an organised way by various modules such as admin,
customers, employee, suppliers, stock item, sales, parking, customer bill and
reports.

The Project is has been made in Visual Studio .net 2008 as a frontend and
Microsoft Access as Backend. Visual Basic .net is good for easy interface and
is very interactive. The user can easily use this Software. MS Access is good for
storing information and provides better connectivity with the database. MS
Access also provides better security to the software.

The Software is Developed for "Shopping Mall" which will help them
to manage their daily work(Maintain records, make entries). This Software will
help them to make their work easy and at good speed.
Scope of System:
The system is developed for the that operates providing facility to
Shopping Mall Management System ,the system is capable to handle and
maintain various records.

To maintain Product details.

To maintain customer details.

To maintain sales details.

To maintain Employee details.

To maintain supplier details.

To maintain report details.

Proposed System:
It helps to reduce the error at a great speed. The system must work
Accurately & efficient as per its expectation. The proposed system must be user
friendly &can be easily operated by employee with minimum knowledge about
computer. The system must work according to the Management’s expectation &
produce good result. It makes the system computerized instead of manual system.
This makes the system more feasible & efficient to use.
Previously Grocery shop was a difficult task, because lots of book of
accounts were needed to be managed which therefore utilised much space and
also required much time to manage, check accuracy and store.

But now, things have changed; managing products now is not so difficult
task. It has become easy because paperwork is replaced by computer work. This
made it easy to manage, check accuracy and can also store large amount of data
using database.
 ANALYSIS

Fact Finding Technique:

Fact expressed in quantitative form can be termed as data. Success of any
requirement investigation depends on availability of reliable and accurate data.

Fact Finding Technique is as follows:

 Questionnaire :

We use this technique in the initial phase of the project. Questionnaire

helped us to get some basic information about the current system.

By this technique we understood the process, working of the current

system.

 Interviews :

It is used to collect information from individuals or groups.

Respondents are generally current users of the system under study.

Interviewer must plan in advance and fully know the problem in advance.

Information collected is more reliable and accurate.

We interviewed many persons working in agencies and collected

information about the working and functioning of current system. We also

gathered information about the problems faced in the current system.

  Observation :

It helps to get information that cannot be obtained by other fact finding

techniques.

In this method the flow of documents is carried out and the steps

followed.

First hand information about how the activities, process are carried out is

obtained.

We observed how the data is stored and in what format.

 Record Review :

Information related to the system may be present in the form of records

like books, manuals, journals etc.

Record view provides very valuable information about the system,

organization, various procedures and rules.

It may be performed in the beginning of study to collect initial

information or at

the end to compare actual operation.

We saw application forms, register for transactions, Staff details,

Engineers details, Industry details etc.

 Feasibility Study:

Feasibility study is an initial information that determines whether

proposed system is feasible or not.

Aspects to be studied during feasibility study :-

Technical Feasibility:

The system ensures accuracy, reliability and ease of data retrieval.

The platform will be portable enough to work on any of the
platforms and operating environment.
 The system will be efficient in its performance. Performance could
be the speed and the memory required for the system.

Economical Feasibility:

The hardware used for the system will estimate budget of the
project.
The cost incurred to modify the system will be minimized.
Manpower to work on the system will be reduced.

Operational Feasibility:

The system will be beneficial only when it will meet organization’s

operating requirements.
The system will be easy to use.
 It will have proper Human Engineering Techniques.
  The look and feel of the system will be user friendly and be easily
understood by the user.

Social Feasibility:

The system will help the user to carry out their job easily and
in short time.
Care has been taken to see that the language used in the system
does not hurt the sentiments of user.

ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS:
 Speed-
The developed system will help the user to speed up the work manifolds.
The system provides very good graphical user interface (GUI), which
enables the user to understand the system and work easily.
 Security-

There is facility of login and password which provides security to the data
from unauthorised person.

 Maintain records-

Large amount of records can be maintained under one database which helps
in modifying, adding, deleting record as required.

 Helps in maintaining good relationship-

If Mall is managed properly good relationships is maintained between

customers, employee, manager and supplier.

 Validation-

The validation on the data ensures that valid data is going into the database.
Appropriate and relevant error message avoids the data entry mistake.

 Helps in classification-

It helps in classification of products according to men, women, kids,

electronics, etc.

 Report-

Helps in making report of customer, employee, supplier, bill, product, etc.

Limitations:

1. Lack of centralized register for all the entries of mall details.

2. If the database goes down we can lose entire information.

3. Manual maintenance of documents.

4. Since the same data is compiled at different sections, the possibility of
tabulating data wrongly increases. Also if the data is more, validations
become difficult. This may result in loss of accuracy of data as the
information is stored in the paretic.

As this project is made in visual studio .net which is made offline, hence
we cannot have all the facilities like online project hence reduces its scope.

The project runs on platform because frontend and backend languages are
dependent.

FUTURE ENHANCEMENT

1. Improved User Interface of System.

2. Changes can be done according to the client.
3. Can be made online.
