1.5Problem Definition
Online ordering has increased the range of offers available there are also some emerging worries
due to examples of unfair commercial practices and lack of transparent related to such ordering.
Mostly up to now people use phone calls to order the desired product because people do not trust
in ordering through online. There are many fake website which use to get the credit card pin and
thief money.
Normal people are not being able to learn more about online ordering. There is not being able to
view the correct status of organization. The customers also are not able to order the product due

objectives which are mentioned as follows:
 The online ordering will provide service to online customer and administration.
 It helps to make the work easier for administrator as well as customers who are willing to
buy the IT products.
 There is no chance of data loose.
 To increase and improve reliability of returns data.
 The work looks standard while using website rather than ordering by doing phone and
easy to understand by administrator and customer too.

CHAPTER TWO
TASK AND ACTIVITIES PERFORMED
2.1Analysis of task
2.1.1 Introduction to Store Management System
The Store Management System will be developing for the Universal Computer & Mobile
Center to maintain the records of the all the products i.e. Laptop, Computer, Mobile, Printer
and parts, Customers, Suppliers, Orders and generate the report as weekly, monthly or yearly.
In an organization with a small quantity of stock, one person might be placed in charge of it, if
the owner/manager does not look after it himself. Where the volume of stock is too large to be
handled on a part-time basis, one or more storekeepers will be required. Organizations with
large quantities of stock must employ trained store personnel under the control of a store
manager.
It is possible to state at what stage a store manager will be appointed by a particular
organization, as circumstances and sizes vary so greatly. But whatever its size and the volume
of its stocks, the success of the organization can depend to a large extent on the efficient
management of its store and stocks.
2.1.2 Analysis of past and present situation of the organization
The UCMC use the manual system for keeping records of all the transactions information. It
has to be replaced by streamline recording system with ordering facilities. The manual
recording system was tedious and hard to control. Manual system is slower, risk of errors. As
we know managing the records is most essential task for any organization. So, it must be
accurate which is easily provided by the system.
If the organization use this system, they can effectively manage the stores and also able to
overcome the faults of the manual system. This system is easier to use, cheap, convenient,
faster, accurate and time saving

2.2Activities
2.2.1 Problem Identification
The main problem of this organization is implementation is traditional recording system. As
the world becomes more digital in nature, and ever growing issue for the records management
group is the conversion of existing or incoming paper records to electronic forms. Privacy and
data protection are increasing issues in an any organization. The need to insure personal
information is not retaining unnecessarily has brought greater focus to retention schedules and
records disposal. Similarly the adaptation and implementation is another major issue.
Implementing required changes to organizational culture is a major challenge, since store
management is often seen as an unnecessary or low priority administrative task that can be
performed at the lowest levels within an organization. Conversion of paper record to
computerized form has been emerging issue.
2.2.2 Solution Design
Design is the process of implementing software solutions to one or more sets of problems. One
of the main components of software design is the software requirement analysis.
For this project there is one database is used. Database, which is used to store the information
of the people who are visiting the organization in the given time as well as validation of the
data they entered in the form is also done.

2.3Findings
The process of finding the problem that the organization is facing and the way to recover those
problems is known as major finding. While doing the survey, there are some problems faced by
the customers of the organization. They do not get product or services as they desire and lack of
information of organization.
To overcome those problems a finite solution has made like a good website with proper
information of organization so that people do not face any location and information problems
and the main overcomes of the problem is about ordering the product. In past there is not sure
that ordering done by the customer is confirmed or not but now there is proper way for ordering
the product, where people can see availability of the product in the organization. When customer
can order they can get acknowledgment from the organization that product is ordered as per their
choice or the product that you ordered is not available currently. By getting this
acknowledgement message they can be more confirmed.
