The document describes a proposed web-based courier management system that aims to automate the manual processes of a courier company. The current system involves maintaining records and generating reports manually through books. The proposed system is a software application that centralizes data in a database for real-time access and reporting. It allows for tracking shipments, managing employee details and transactions, generating bills and reports. The system has modules for admin and employee functions and is developed using Java/J2EE technologies.

1. WEB BASED SPEED AGE COURIER
The actual problem is to maintain different database for an courier company whose main
purpose is to provide parcel services for their customers for different places, and maintain details of
all the transactions, employees and address details.
In the manual system it is difficult to maintain data and generating different reports
according to requesting transaction. In the present courier system always they have to take source as
well as destination information which contains address details, parcel contents details and payment
details. After delivering parcels as a company they have to maintain acknowledgment details.
By keeping all the above activities we are developing a system named as “Courier Service
Automation System”. In this automation system we are maintaining company as well as customer
details related to courier service, employee details and payment details.
Features:
 Flexible and User- Friendly UI
 Manage different branches at locations based on the requests from dealers
 Testimonials Collection posted by different by different customers as feedbacks
 Create and manage corporate logins for some companies
 Dealer can manage their employees at his branch through this application only
 Consignments Tracking
 Deliveries management
 Dispatches management
 Receivables Management
 Automatic Discounts evaluations in the bill for corporate customers
 Corporate customer can track their monthly transactions
 Finding the status of a consignment from online at any time

2. CURRENT SYSTEM:
Current system is a manual one where in consignments, deliveries, dispatches, receives etc
details are maintained in books. Whenever a consignment is booked or delivered or dispatched or
received by a dealer, the details are entered into various books. Monthly or annual reports and
returns are prepared based on the data from these books.
Disadvantages:
The following are the disadvantages of current system
1. It is not secure to maintain important information manually
2. More manual hours need to generate required reports
3. It is tedious to manage historical data which needs much space to keep all the past years
applications, books etc.
4. User need to wait more time to get his application status.
5. Data is not in sync in case of manual system.
6. Co-ordination between various branches is very difficult
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
Proposed system is a software application which avoids more manual hours that need to spend in
record keeping and generating reports. This application keeps the data in a centralized way
which is available to all the users simultaneously. It is very easy to manage historical data in
database. No specific training is required for the employees to use this applicatio n. They can
easily use the tool that decreases manual hours spending for normal things and hence increases
the performance.
Advantages:
The following are the advantages of proposed system
1. Easy to track the status of applications at any level at any point of time
2. Can generate required reports easily

3. 3. Easy to manage historical data in a secure manner
4. Centralized database helps in avoiding conflicts
5. Easy to use GUI that does not requires specific training.
