Abstract
This present study E-Courier management system or ECMS has been developed to keeping
in mind the heights of “Information technology has reached to new height” and when
everything is powered with computers does make a great difference. The targets of our online
courier service system is to pickup and deliver parcel or consignment from different user via
online booking. Cost of the service is calculated according to the parcels weight, height, length,
diameter and distance of sending and receiving branch. User can pay the service charge online
via credit card and they can easily check their delivered parcel’s status by a given track number
which will be sent automatically to the sender’s email after booking. There are two types of
admin, they are main admin and branch manager. As well as the administrator’s functions are
update and delete branches, adding new branches, view the status of parcels, update parcel
rates etc. The functions of branch manager are updating parcel status that means the current
location of the parcels, delete parcels, sort parcels etc. The system has been developed by
designing appropriately in which the users can interact with the system easily. All related data
has been analyzed considering data relation, data modeling and normalization of data file
structure using appropriate tools. The system has been designed in response to the concept of
system analysis and design. We try our best to keep the system free from errors and
inconsistency. The languages that are used to develop the system are HTML, PHP, CSS, Java
script, AJAX and MYSQL database is used to store and process various types of information.
