receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts,


business goods and the like. People dependvastly on different
transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving
anddelivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they
are received and thereis no way to let th e custo me r kno w wh at

situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the
cargoactivities including time to time tracking of the articles
sent. This need is fulfilled

office and book an article or good. The manager/clerk can
usethis software to enter the details of the customer and
goods along with the source and destination points. The
details of loading the goods into the physical transport system
arealso recorded by the system. The system has %&I for the
users to manage not only dailytransactions but also to keep the
historical data in the database for future reference.The other
user of the s ys tem is admi nis trator who can manage
the vehicl es information as well as employees' information. (e

system is used for dailyactivities such
as booking, loading, delivery, status check,
and managing branches. It isvery difficult to do this
process manually. (ence it is recommended to
computerize the process by developing the relative software

1.2 Existing System
The e is ti ng s ys tem is a manual one i n whi ch users
are mai ntai ni ng
l edgers, books etc to store the information like goods booking
details, loading particulars,deliveries particulars, details of
receivers of items at all branches, and customer details aswell
as employee details. It is very difficult to maintain

is difficult to maintain important information in
books . ore manual hours need to generate
re"uired reports/.It is tedious to manage historical data
which needs much space to keep all the previous year's
ledgers, books etc.0.1aily transactions are to be entering
into different books immediately to avoidconflicts which are
very difficult.2.3o co-ordination between different branches
because we are not storing the dataat centralized location.
1.# $r % sed System
The new s ys tem titl ed 4Couri er anagement !ys tem5
is hence proposed toremove all the problems in the

is a software application which avoids more manual hours
thatneed to spend in record keeping and generating reports.
This application keeps the data ina centralized way which is
available to all the users simultaneously. It is very easy
tomanage historical data in database. 3o specific
training is re"uired for the employees touse this
application. They can easily use the tool that decreases
manual hours spendingfor normal things and hence
increases the performance. )s the data is centralized it
isvery easy to maintain the status of the goods booked in all
