BOOKING SYSTEM

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 OVER VIEW OF PROJECT

The project “TICKET BOOKING SYSTEM” is done to automate the manually
done processes of the organization. The system insights towards customizing the requirement
of the tickets section of the company. It also performs separate date wise report and makes
updating of the records like the number of child tickets, number of adult tickets booked which
is made for the bill. The project also has separate module that deals with the process of
cancellation of tickets.
The system has unique login id and password for the staffs and the administrator
holds the rights to manipulate the system and to view the reports. The ticket booking profiles
and the ticket cancellation profiles are maintained by the system. The tickets booked by the
customers are maintained and the cost of the total number of tickets is calculated
automatically. The project is been planned to provide all the features which will support the
needs of the concern. The proposed system is framed in such a way that it overcomes all the
problems and adds more features to the system.

This project include the following modules, these are,

 Employee Details Module

 Ticket Booking Details Module
 Ticket Cancellation Details Module
 Reports

1.4. SOFTWARE FEATURES

ABOUT VISUAL BASIC 6.0

Microsoft Visual Basic is one of the best GUIs and version 6.0 is the latest Version of
the popular programming language. With its new features, Visual Basic is an even stronger
contender in the application development area then ever before.
Microsoft Visual Basic, the fastest and easiest to create applications for Microsoft
windows. Visual Basic provides with a complete set of tools to simplify Rapid Application
Development (RAD).

WHAT IS VISUAL BASIC 6.0?

The “Visual” part refers to the method used to create the graphical user
interface (GUI), Rather than writing numerous lines of code to describe the appearance and
location of interface elements, we simply add rebuilt objects into place on screen. The
“Basic” part refers to the BASIC (Beginners All - Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code)
language, a language used by more programmers than any other language in the history of
computing. Visual Basic has evolved from the original BASIC language and now contains
several hundred statements, functions and keywords, many of which relate directly to the
windows GUI.
The purpose of Visual Basic 6.0 is to develop robust stand-alone application, games,
and utilities less time than it takes in other languages. We can use also ActiveX technology to
create internet-enabled applications that are limited only by our imagination.
Visual Basic 6.0 is the newest addition to the family of Visual Basic products. It
allows us to create Windows applications for our PC without being an expert in C++ or other
programming languages.

Visual basic is a powerful programming language for the development of high level,
graphical based application. It helps the users to enter data in a more simple way using forms.

BOOKING SYSTEM

It is much more a programming environment than just a language. It is adaptive to single or

multiple user environments.
Visual Basic introduces some newly advanced features like:
 Data access:
Any kind of database can be linked with these visual
basic forms. Accessing records is made easy.
 Controls:
The VB applications include different controls such as
Data grid, Data Combo. We can add or remove
controls in a Visual basic application.
 Languages:
Some interesting functions are available that helps to
access methods or events.
 Wizards:
The application helps to develop wizards that help the
user in a simple way.
The data access is found along with specialized techniques such as object linking and
data binding which is more effective under such techniques. The internet related with this VB
is a dynamic factor. The controls and events play a vital role in creating user friendly
applications.

MS-ACCESS

Microsoft Access 2003 is collectively called a database. A database is a

collection of information that is related to a particular subject or purpose, such as tracking
customer records or maintaining a book collection.
Here, you can manage all the information from a single database file. Within the file,
you can use:

 Tables to store data.

 Queries to find and retrieve the data that is required.
 Reports to analyze and print data in a specific layout.

2. SYSTEM STUDY

2.1. EXISTING SYSTEM:

• The existing system is not flexible as all the procedures with respect to both the
search and show process is done manually.
• This increases the paper work of the office which includes the ticket booking and
ticket cancellation works.
• Thus there arises confusion because it will be confusing to check all the details.

DRAWBACKS OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM

1. Readability of records is constrained
All the records may not be handled or written by the same
person. So the format will be different resulting in loss.

2. Paper records are easily damaged with time

The life time of paper records are very less that it easily gets
damaged. It faces the risk of loss of data.

3. Expenditure is high
Manual system need more man power for its functioning than
computer systems. Expenditure is high in terms of salary and time.

4. Security

8
 TICKET
BOOKING SYSTEM

The manual system losses the security because it is handled by

many number of persons to enter the transactions. No proper handling of
manipulation of data.

5. Need lot of manpower

The manual system in the existing system needs lot of
manpower to maintain various details in each section.

2.2. PROPOSED SYSTEM:

• The proposed system overcomes all the limitations of the existing system. And it
gives a clear view of the work to be done. It maintains the data safe and secure. The
system moreover builds a better communication between the users.
• The report is generated from the list of orders and there is no chance of missing even
a single item.

MERITS

 Involves faster processing of data,

 Flexible,
 Very less paper work,
 Easy availability of data and
 Cost effective

4.2. INPUT DESIGN

The input design is the process of entering data to the system. The input design goal is
to enter to the computer as accurate as possible. Here inputs are designed effectively so that
errors made by the operations are minimized. The inputs to the system have been designed in
such a way that manual forms and the inputs are coordinated where the data elements are
common to the source document and to the input. The input is acceptable and understandable
by the users who are using it.
The quality of the system input determines the quality for system output. Input
specification describes the manner in which data entered the system processing.
Input design is the process of converting user-originated inputs to a computer-based
format input data are collected and organized into group of similar data. Once identified,
appropriate input media are selected for processing.
The input design also determines the user to interact efficiently with the system. Input
design is a part of overall system design that requires special attention because it is the
common source for data processing error. The goal of designing input data is to make entry
easy and free from errors.

Five objectives of the input design are:

1. Effectiveness
2. Accuracy
3. Ease to use
4. Consistency
5. Attractiveness
The main objectives that are done during the input design are:
i. Data is collected from the source
ii. Transfer of data to an input form is done
iii. Data is converted to a computer acceptable form
iv. The converted data is verified
v. Data is checked for its accuracy

4.3. OUTPUT DESIGN

The output design was done so that results of processing could be communicated to
the users. The various outputs have been designed in such a way that they represent the same
format that the office and management used to.
Computer output is the most important and direct source of information to the user.
Efficient, intelligible output design should improve the systems relationships with the user
and help in decision making. A major form of output is the hardcopy from the printer.
Output requirements are designed during system analysis. A good starting point for
the output design is the Data Flow Diagram (DFD). Human factors educe issues for design
involves addressing internal controls to ensure readability.

5. SYSTEM TESTING AND IMPLEMENTATION

5.1. UNIT TESTING

Unit testing is concerned with the testing of a small module. Using the detailed design
description as a guide, important control paths are tested to uncover the errors within the
boundary of the module. The module interface is tested to ensure that the information flows
in and out of the program unit under test. The local data structure is ensured that the variables
are exercised to ensure that all statements in the module are executed at least once. Number
of input/output operations, database exceptions and expressions are also tested in each and
every module.

5.2 INTEGRATION TESTING

Integration testing is proceeded with bottom up approach. In bottom up integration
testing, an individual module is first tested from a test harness. Once a set of individual
module has been tested, they are then combined into a Collection of modules, known as
builds, which are then by a second harness. This process can combine until the build consists
of the entire application. The main objective of the integration testing is to take the unit tested
modules and to build a program structure that has been dictated by design. Once all modules
are unit tested they are put together for integration testing process. All the unit-tested
modules are combined and integrated. This type of testing is a must because the information
can be lost across an interface. One module can have an inadvertent, adverse effect on the
other sub functions may not produce desired results when integrated.

5.3 VALIDATION TESTING:

The validation testing provides a way for validating all the inputs entered by the user. It
also helps in notifying the cross committed. This is the method for testing the incorrect
inputs.

5.4 SYSTEM TESTING

Testing is a process used to help identify the correctness, completeness and quality of
developed computer software. There are many approaches to software testing, but effective
testing of complex products is essentially a process of investigation, not merely a matter of
creating and following rote procedure. One definition of testing is “the process of questioning
a product in order to evaluate it”, where the “questions” are thing the tester tries to do with
the product answers with its behavior in reaction to the probing of the tester.

The quality of the application can and normally does vary widely from system to
system but some of the common quality attributes include reliability, stability, portability,
maintainability and usability.

Testing objective include

 Testing is a process of executing a program with the intent of finding
an error.
 A good test case is one that has a high probability of finding an as yet
undiscovered error.
 A successful test is one that uncovers an as yet undiscovered error.
Testing should systematically uncover different classes of errors in a minimum
amount of time and with a minimum amount of effort, a benefit of testing is that it
demonstrates that the software appears to be working as stated in the specifications. The data
collected through testing can also provide an indication of the software‘s reliability and
quality. But, testing cannot show the absence of defect—it can only show that software
defects are present.

5.5. SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION:

System implementation is the stage in the project where the theoretical design is turned
into working system. The most crucial stage is giving the users confidence that the new system
will work effectively and efficiently.
The performance of reliability of the system was tested and it gained acceptance. The
system implemented successfully. Implementation is a process that means converting a new
system into operation.
Proper implementation is essential to provide a reliable system to meet organization
requirements. During the implementation stage a live demonstration was undertaken and
made in front of end-users. The various features provided in the system where discussed
during implementation
The following are the steps involved in the implementation Plan:

• Test information system with sample data

• Detection and correction of errors
• Make necessary information changes in the system
• Check information with the existing system
• Installment of hardware and software

6. SCOPE FOR FURTHER ENHANCEMENT

 The software has been developed in such a way that it can accept modifications and
further changes. The software is very user friendly and future any changes can be done
easily.

 Software restructuring is carried out. Software restructuring modifies source code in an

effort to make it amenable to future changes.

 To enrich the application usage and time consumption this system could be implemented
in network environment. Thus the backend for this project can be modified like that to
give the feature.
