 purposes. That means for generating day to day sale transaction,
monthly reports and Yearly Reports.

Current System:

The existing system, the operator is facing many of problems for

entering the data of the subscribers like maintaining the
subscribers information. It is more difficult to verifying all the
information and making reports for each and every SIM activation,
difficult to update the reports. The present system is a manual work
and is should require so much of manpower and it is time
consuming process and also it is much inconsisted and not reliable.

Drawbacks of the Current System:

Time Delay: Information related to all transactions is stored in different

tables. Since all the information is stored in different tables, it takes a
lot of time to prepare different reports.

Redundancy: As the data passes through different tables. It involves a lot of

complication and duplication in manual work, thus it causes redundancy.

Security: All the data that is entering into the current system can be manipulated by
any person.

Proposed System:

Proposed system is entirely computer based. In this all the data is

fed into the computer and stored in to Database and it allows to store
large amount of data about the information and these data can be
accessed for calculating the profit and generate reports. Every sort of task
is performed by the system, such as storing the subscriber, outlets details
to reducing much paper work and burden of the file storage and
calculating the credit and profit reports in easier manner.

Advantages over Proposed System:

1. We can provide more security to the important data.

2. We can maintain the data in centralized location.

3. Easily track out the subscriber and distributor details.

4. Track out the payment collections.

5. No other technology is needed for work on this application.
