Introduction
The goal of this project was to create
a bank simulation application. The
app would communicate via network
and insert information into a
database.
Objectives
The main menu should pop up and
ask a user to insert the card. The
server should check if the
information matches the card
number and open up the PIN code
insertion application. Users should
be able to log in to their accounts
and view transactions and account
balances. Users should be able to
deposit and withdraw money from
their bank accounts.

Software Application Project
ECTS Credits: 15
Date of Publication: 2022, Spring
Instructors: Kari Jyrkkä
Methods
The user database was created
using MySQL and Uniserver Z.
REST API was created in Visual
Studio, the programming language
being Javascript. Code was tested
with Postman. REST API and GUI
were combined with the Qt creator.
The whole project was uploaded to
Github, where group members
updated files when progression
happened.

Results
Almost fully functioning Banksimul-
application. RFID- app recognizes
card ID and signals depending on it
as shown above. If cardID is ‘A’, then
the application signals ‘1’ to
RFID.exe. Users can log in to the
application with Pin. The login app
only lets in users, if their customerID
and Pin match with the database.
After application matches the user to
the customerID, main menu pops up.
In this view there is non-functioning
buttons, which work as visualization
at this state.

features.
Conclusions
The project was more time
consuming than expected, which
brought up minor complications.
With help from the instructors,
everything worked out in the end.
The software project showed us
exciting challenges, and everyone
learned new things about working
together and programming in
general.
