The Design And Implementation Of Fee Clearance Information System Software.

Abstract

The project work presents a design of a fee clearance information system/software for bursary department ESCET administration, is concerned with the computerization of personal records of all departmental fees in order to achieve the aims and objectives of the organization. The entrance of computer into the departmental fee clearance system for bursary department (ESCET) administration will help create and maintain efficient records. The design was implemented to facilitate the personnel information system for bursary department (ESCET) administration. It will be less time wasting and cheap to run.

Chapter One

Introduction

Many organization uses computerized information system to keep their data/information. There is an urgent need to document every information of an organization for the decision making in such organization.

Fee clearance information system/software is used mainly in higher institute of learning to track the record of students data/information need to be change to the electronic format of processing.

Bursary department in every institution is highly and need to be taken care of. This department deal with students figures in terms of payment and therefore need to be well documented. Figures can be easily manipulated and incorrectly represented which call for immediate attention when dealing with such information.

Because of the manual approach used in bursary department, a lot of students’ records are mismanaged. The institute also has suffered a lot of bruises like improper calculation of student departmental fees, embezzlement of the institute money by some bursary staff and some student claiming that they have paid.

Fee clearance information system/software, FCIS is well automated system. Fee clearance information system/software makes the staffs of bursary department of any institution to be accountable to the management.

The management uses fee clearance information system/software, FCIS as effective tool in keeping all the students records as pertaining their payment. The management uses fee clearance information system/software; FCIS to know the entire student that have made their payment and those owing them. It is used as a effective tool to calculate all the student payment and document such report.

Another important aspect of fee clearance information system/software, FCIS is that it is used as effective tool during student’s clearance. Being automated system, the student’s record will be easily retrieve to check his/her payment status. Before now, the student’s payment record must have been recorded in the system by the computer operator in the bursary department. Once a student’s record is brought out the payment status will show. If the student is owing any department fee, the fee clearance information system/software, FCIS will indicate it and vice verse.

1.1 Statement of Problem

The difficulties people face in keeping information/data.

Unwillingness attitude of some staff when dealing with data/information.

Fragile nature of information/data.

Difficulties people encountered when searching for a given information.

Time wasted in searching for information on packed files.

Time wasted in sorting files

Important nature of data/information in the growth of any organization.The need arise for the development of fee clearance information system/software bursary department, for a higher institution.

 

1.2 Purpose of Study

The main purpose of this study is to put to an end the difficulties people encountered during storage of data/information. This is actualized by designing fee clearance information system/software bursary department, which is user friendly and interactive. By the time this software is designed and implemented, the difficulties encountered with manual method of keeping information will be eliminated.

1.3 Aims or Objectives

The aims and objectives of this project are listed below:·

To develop software called fee clearance information system/software that will replace the manual method of storage.·

To stop or eliminate the difficulties people face with manual method of storage.·

To demonstrate increased motivation to the bursary workers.·

To easy the work associated with manual method.·

To eliminate the error involved with the manual storage of data/information.·

To save the time wasted when searching or sorting for a given data/information.·

To remove untidy nature of most offices because of huge number of files scattered all over.·

To make higher institution a computerized one.All these contributed to show that personnel office is now been influence by information technology.

 

1.4 Scope of Study

This project work is narrowed to fee clearance information system/software bursary department, ESCET. It deals with the development of personnel management information system to help in the storage of data/information in the Enugu State College of Education Technical bursary office.

It stores all registration, departmental fee and individual information.

1.5 Limitation of Study

Owing to the scope of this project work as stated above, this project work is limited in a fee clearance information system/software bursary department (ESCET).

It is important to mention here that time was a major constraint in the course of fact finding. It is also wise to mention here that some information we need to work with was not collected because of the unwillingness of the staff to review such information.

1.6 Assumption Study

One of the major assumptions made in this project work is that manual method of storage are ineffective, time wasting, prone to error and high level of energy dissipation.

It is also assumed that with the level of development in information technology, there is a serious demand to join this trend of information technology.

It is also assumed that fee clearance information system/software motivate the staffs to work more with easy and enhance their work.

Summary and Conclusion

5.1 Summary

The paper develop a prototype of an e-tuition payment system that can address the difficulties encountered by students, parents and university management regarding tuition payments and collections using Enugu State College of Education as a case study. The Enhanced E-Tuition Payment system was developed to automate the fee payment process to improve situation regarding tuition payments in the school.

5.2 Conclusion

The Enugu State College of Education staff are humbled but at the same time excited with the successful implementation and testing of the system. All the stakeholders are looking to a better learning environment through this system and this chapter gave a detailed description of the implementation phase making a success in the project development. The system now writes its own history in improving the learning environment and its sustainability will depend on the collective post implementation work of both the developers and other stakeholders. The project was a success.

5.3 Recommendations for Future / Further Development

Due to the limited delivery time of the system, some areas of the system may not have been done to justice and below are some of the further developments that can be done to the system:

Each and every module can be further be developed to include those functions which were dimmed not important in the initial development. These functions may include the payroll for the school development community staff members amongst other functions

An android application can be developed for the e-learning platform to enable easy of sharing of learning material amongst students and teachers.

Parents portals can also be created to enable parents to directly view all students records

The whole system can be served on a cloud if the school secure a reliable and fast internet connection with more than 99% uptime Other recommendations may arise as the system get to work in a real life environment and those recommendations are most welcome.
