The Transport Management System is the software used to maintain and automate a transport firm. The maintanace part include registering the customers, entering day to day information of the trips that has been taken by a particular vehicle, expenses incurred for trips on particul day. The automation part includes the caluclation of the total amount for a trip based upon the info provided by the user, automatic updation of dues or advances incurred by a customer. The system is also able to generate reports as required for record purposes. Two such reports are included. The first one shows the customer information along with due/advance against that particular customer and the second one shows the trip info by a paticular vehicle and expenses incurred on that vehicle on a particular date.

2. INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

In this modern era, where every thing greatly relies on technology there is a possibility to develop unique application which can justify the problems faced by ordinary methodology to achieve a desired functionality in a real time system. Our project belongs to that half.

This project is a real time application that is being developed for one of the reputed transport companies in the state of Andhra Pradesh. The project takes dotnet as development platform and C# is the language used for development.

3. SYSTEM ANALYSIS

SYSTEM ANALYSIS

The Transport Management System is designed in a simplest manner, very much user friendly so that the people using it should not struggle with the operational features of the system. An analysis is carried out in achieving this. A wide variety of transport firms have been analysed and came to a conclusion that transport firms related to shipping the goods from one place to another and logistics involves more clerical work , difficult maintanance issues.

1. EXISTING SYSTEM - ITS DRAWBACKS: The ordinary methodology of maintaining a transport firm involves the following drawbacks:

Time consumption in maintanace is high. Less Security. Involves extra-clerical work. Involves more man power. Irregularities in maintaining the record Very much dependent on user intelligence.

These are the problems faced during the real time execution of the existing system and this awakened the idea of making a tool which negotiates the above drawbacks in a sophisticated yet in a simple manner. The idea is nonetheless The Transport Management System.

2. PROPOSED SYSTEM - ITS ADVANTAGES:

The proposed system involves software developed in higher end program development environments which take all operational and security issues in to consideration to a great extent.

The following are the advantages we can feel with this project: Tranport maintanace will be easy which takes less time for maintance. Every thing is automised and the system totally transperant. Minimal Clerical work involved. Less man power required. Very much user friendly with good look and feel. Minmal dependancy on User Intelligence.

FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM:

Following is a list of functionalities of the system. More functionalities as deemed appropriate can be added to the list in near future. And, in places where the description of functionality is not adequate, appropriate assumptions are made. 1. Administrator Login2. Customer Registration3. Transport Info Entry4. Expenses Entry5. Reports

1. Administrator Login:

First to enter this system the users has to login to this system. Basically this is a single user application.

The system comes with a predefined administrator (comes with default login credentials and whose password can be changed later) whose first task after immediate successful login is to register the customers for whom the firm going to serve.

First a login screen will be displayed to get the users login details. The user has to enter the user-id and the password. The password has to be masked with character *

The user details will be verified against the details in the user tables and if he / she are valid user, they should be entered into the system. Once entered, based on the user type access to the different modules to be enabled / disabled.

If user enters wrong password for continuously 5 times, the account should be locked. The information about the login and logout details will be stored in a separate table.

2. Customer Registration:

Customer Registration is used to create a new a new customer, modify the details of existing user or remove the existing user. Only the administrator can have access to this part. Normal user wont have access to this has to login as admin to do this.

Customers are registered by the admin and each customer will be identified distinctly by using the primary key in the back end.

Functionality is provided to change password by the admisnistrator. It is recommended that the administrator changes his password as soon as he logins for the very first time.

3. Transport Info Entry:

This is the core part of the application which every other thing revolves around.

This will take the details of the unique slip number, the vehicle number, the metal info that is being transported, the cost incurred for the metal and trasport, the place to where it is getting transported to, the customer who ordered the transport and the amount paid by the customer.

When ever the transport information is provided the system automatically caluclates the due or advance paid against a particular customer for a particular trip and preserves the customers current due or advance amount depending upon the amount paid by the customer is in low or excess of the current transport amount respectively.

The same form also allows the user to edit the particular transport info including the amounts and system recaluclates automatically and saves the particular transport information.

4. Expenses Entry:

This window is used to enter the expenses incurred on a vehicle used for transport on a particular day.

The expenses that include may be diesel charges, driver allowances, puncture andrepairs, road tokens etc,

5. Reports:

This module is used to display and print various reports.

Customer Report This report is used to print the details of customers such as name, address and corresponding balance of a customer.

Transport Report This report gives the overall summary of the transport from a start date to a end date. It shows the overall transport amount the firm as got and the expenses incurred on the vehicle between these dates and hence able to caluclate income for a particular period.

DOT NET APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

ABOUT .NET

What is Microsoft.NET? Microsoft.NET is the Microsoft strategy for connecting system, information, and devices through Web services so people can collaborate and communicate more effectively. .NET technology is integrated thought Microsoft products, providing the capability to quickly build, deploy, manage, and use connected, security -enhanced solution through the use of Web services.

.NET technologies use Web services to help enhance the computing experience with highly integrated communication and information. Because .NET includes the core technologies for building Web services, it benefits every one: individual users, organization, and developers.

.NET is the Microsoft Web services strategy to connect information, people, systems, and devices through software. Integrated across the Microsoft software, .Net technology provides the ability to quickly build, deploy, manage, and use connected, security-enhance solutions with Web services. .NET-connected solutions enable businesses to integrate their systems more rapidly and in more agile manner and help then realize the promise of information any time, any where, on any device.

Benefits of .NET

.NET technologies and Web services can be used for integrate even the most disparate computing environments. .NET frees organizations from the confines of proprietary technology, providing the flexibility and scalability that can help organizations connect their existing IT systems and build a foundation for the next wave of computer technology. .NET and web services can help organizations lower operating costs by helping connect systems. .NET-enabled computing is centered on the user-not on the features of the software or hardware. The user's experience becomes very customizable and provides integrated data and customized interactions that work well with a wide range of computing hardware.

.NET benefits developers by providing a tightly integrated set of tools for building and integrating web services. Visual Studio .NET and the .NET Framework provide comprehensive development platforms the offer the best, fastest, and most cost-effective way to build Web services.

.NET also provides a foundation for building Service Oriented Architectures (SOA).

ABOUT ASP.NET

What is ASP?

ASP.NET is the next generation ASP, but it's not an upgraded version of ASP. ASP.NET is an entirely new paradigm for server-side ASP scripting.

ASP is a server side scripting technology that enables scripts to be executed by an Internet server.

ASP is a Microsoft Technology ASP stands for Active Server Pages ASP is a program that runs inside IIS. IIS stands for Internet Information Services. IIS comes as a free component with windows 2000 IIS is also a part of the Windows NT 4.0 Option pack The option packs can be downloaded from MicrosoftHow does it work???

When a browser requests an HTML file, the server returns the file When a browser requests an ASP file, IS passes the request to the ASP engine on the server The ASP engine reads each file and executes the scripts in the file Finally, the ASP file is written to the browser as plain HTML. ASP.NET is the new offering for Web developers from the Microsoft. It is a completely re-engineered and enhanced technology that offers much, much more than traditional ASP and can increase productivity significantly. ASP.NET provides services to allow the creation, deployment, and execution of Web Application and Web Services. Web Applications are built using Web Forms. ASP.NET comes with built-in Web Forms controls, which are responsible for generating the user interface. They mirror typical HTML wedged like textboxes or buttons. ASP.NET is based on a fundamental architecture of .NET Framework. Visual studio provides a uniform way to combine the various features of this Architecture. Some times in ASP.NET very familiar, and they remain us ASP. But concepts like Web Forms, Web Services, are Server Controls gives ASP.NET the power to build real Web applications. Advantages of ASP.NET

Separation of code from HTML To make a clean sweep, with ASP.NET we have the ability to completely separate layout and business logic. This makes it much easier for teams of programmers and designers to collaborate efficiently.

Support for compiled language Developer can use VB.NET and access features such as strong typing and object-oriented programming. Using compiled languages also means that ASP.NET pages do not suffer the performance penalties associated with interpreted code.ASP.NET pages are precompiled to byte-code and Just In Time (JIT) compiled when first requested. Subsequent requests are directed to the fully compiled code, which is catched until the source changes.

Update files while the server is running Components of your application can be updated while the server is online and clients are connected. The Framework will use the new files as soon as they are copied to the application. Removed or old files that are still in use are kept in memory until the clients have finished.

Benefits of ASP.NET controls Using ASP.NET controls provided four important benefits:

ASP.NET controls expose the HTML elements of a page in an intuitive object model. ASP.NET controls automatically retain the values of properties by participating in view state. ASP.NET controls enable you to cleanly separate the design content of a page from the application logic. ASP.NET controls enable you to maintain browser compatibility, while still supporting advanced browsers features such as JavaScript.

ABOUT ADO.NET:

ADO.NET is the .NET platform's new database technology, and it builds on ADO (Active Data Objects). ADO.NET defines Dataset and Data Table objects that are optimized for moving disconnected sets of data across intranets and Internets, including through firewalls. At the same time, ADO.NET includes the traditional Connection and Command objects, as well as an object called a Data Reader that resembles a forward-only, read-only ADO record set. Together these objects provide the very best performance and throughput for retrieving data from a database.

What is ADO.NET?

ADO.NET is a part of the .NET Framework ADO.NET consists of a set of classes used to handle data access ADO.NET is entirely based on XML ADO.NET has, unlike ADO, no Record set object

ADO.NET is an object-oriented set of libraries that allows you to interact with data sources. Commonly, the data source is a database, but it could also be a text file, an Excel spread sheet, or an XML file

Data Providers:

ADO.NET provides a relatively common way to interact with data sources, but comes in different sets of libraries for each way you can talk to a data source. These libraries are called Data Providers and are usually named for the protocol.

We know that ADO.NET allows us to interact with different types of data sources and different types of databases. However, there is not a single set of classes that allow you to accomplish this universally. Since different data sources expose different protocols, we need a way to communicate with the right data source using the right protocol. Some older data. Sources use the ODBC protocol, many newer data sources use the OLEDB protocol, and there are more data sources every day that allow you to communicate with them directly through .NET ADO.NET class libraries.

ABOUT SQL

What is SQL? SQL stands for Structured Query Language.

SQL allows you to access a database.

SQL is an ANSI standard computer language.

SQL can execute queries against a database.

SQL can retrieve data from a database.

SQL can insert new records in a database.

SQL can delete records from a database.

SQL can update records in a database.

SQL is easy to learn. SQL language allows us to pose complex questions of a database. It also provides a means of creating databases. SQL very widely use. Many database products supports SQL, this means that if learn how to use SQL you can apply this knowledge to MS Access or SQL Server or to Oracle or Ingress and countless other database.

SQL works with relational database. A relational database stores data in tables. A table consists a list of records. SQL also as commands to create tables to add records, to delete records and to change the values of fields of existing records; you can commit roll back transaction; you can add and delete fields from existing tables, specify indexes and create views.

SQL allows user to access data in relational database management systems. It also allows user to define the data in a database and manipulate that data. The Structured Query Language (SQL) comprises one of the fundamental building blocks of modern database architecture.

SQL commands can be divided into two main sub languages. The Data Definition Language (DDL) that contains the commands uses to create and destroy databases and database objects. After the database structure is defined with DDL, database administrators and users can utilize can the Data Manipulation Language to insert, retrieve and modify the data contained within it. Database normalization can save storage space and insure the consistency of your data.

ABOUT C#:

The c# language is disarmingly simple, with only about 80 keywords and a dozen built-in data types, but c# is highly expressive when it comes to implementing modern programming concepts c# includes all the support for structure, component-based, object-oriented programming that one expects of a modern language built on the shoulders of C++ and Java.

C# language supports for defining and working with classes. Classes define new types, allowing you to extend the language to better model the problem you are trying to solve c# contains key words for declaring new classes and their methods and properties, and for implementing encapsulation, inheritance ,and polymorphism the three pillars of object-oriented programming. In C# everything pertaining to a class declaration is found in the declaration itself. C# class definition does not require separate header files or Interface Definition Language (IDL) files. Moreover, C# supports a new XML style of inline documentation that greatly simplifies that creation of online and print reference documentation for an application.

C# also supports Interfaces, a means of making a contract with a class for services that the Interface stipulates. In C#, a class can inherit from only a single parent, but a class can implement multiple interfaces. When it implements an interface, a C# class in effect promises to provide the functionally interface specifies.

C# also provides support for struct, a concept whose meaning has changed significantly from C++. In C#, struct is restricted, lightweight type that, when instantiated, makes fewer your demands on the operating system and on memory then a conventional class does. A struct can't inherit from a class or be inheriting from, but a struct can implement an interface.
