1: INTRODUCTION TO ONLINE CAR RENTAL

1.1 Introduction

I developed this project to book a car on rent at the fare charges. In present system all
booking work done manually and it takes very hard work to maintain the information
of booking and cars. If you want to find which vehicle is available for booking then it
takes a lot of time. It only makes the process more difficult and hard. This aim of the
project is to automate the work performed in the car rental like daily generating daily
bookings, records of car or cab available for booking, record of routes available, rental
charges for cars for every route, store record of the customer.

Car rental is car booking software that provides a complete solution to all your day-to-
day car booking office running needs. It helps in saving time and money of customer
also customer chose their car and books their car easily. This system helps you to keep
the information of Customer online. You can check your customer information any
time by using this system. Car rental is a unique and innovative product. Using this
you can also keep the information of number of booking for a car. Through Car rental
the customer also get new car choice every day for the rent. This helps you to track
your business and you earning in particular month or in any year.

1.2 Reason for the Project

The advancement in Information Technology and internet penetration has greatly

enhanced various business processes and communication between companies (services
provider) and their customers of which car rental industry is not left out. This E-Car
Rental is developed to provide the following services:

Enhance Business Processes: To be able to use internet technology to project the rental

Company to the global world instead of limiting their services to their local domain
alone, thus increase their return on investment (ROI).

1
Online Vehicle Reservation: A tools through which customers can reserve available
cars online prior to their expected pick-up date or time.

Customers Registration: A registration portal to hold customers details, monitor their

transaction and used same to offer better and improve services to them.

1.3 Problem Statement

A car rental is a vehicle that can be used temporarily for a fee during a specified
period. Getting a rental car help people get around despite the fact they do not have
access to their own personal vehicle or do not own a vehicle at all. The individual who
needs a car must contact a rental car company and contract out for a vehicle. This
system increase customer retention and simplify vehicle and staff management.

1.4 Aims & Objective

To produce a web-based system that allow customer to register and reserve car online
and for the company to effectively manage their car rental business.

1.5 Scope
This project traverses a lot of areas ranging from business concept to
computing field, and required to perform several researches to be able to
achieve the project objectives. The area covers include:
Car rental industry: This includes study on how the car rental business is being
done, process involved and opportunity that exist for improvement.

Python Technology used for the development of the application.

G e n e r a l c u s t o me r s a s we l l a s t h e c o mp a n ys s t a f f w i l l b e a b l e t o u s e
t h e s ys t e m effectively.

Web-platform means that the system will be available for access 24/7 except
when there is a temporary server issue which is expected to be minimal.

2: CAR RENTAL SERVICES
2.1 How Car Rental Services Work

A car rental is a vehicle that can be used temporarily for a period of time
with a fee. Renting a car assists people to get around even when they do not have
access to their own personal vehicle or don't own a vehicle at all. The individual who
want to rent a car must first contact the car rental company for the desire
vehicle. This can be done online. At this point, this person has to supply some
information such as; dates of rental, and type of car. After these details are worked
out, the individual renting the car must present a valid Identification Card. Most
companies throughout the industry make a profit based of the type of cars that are
rented. And customers are free to choose any car of their choice based on
their purse and availability of such car at the time of reservation.
2.2 Benefits of Online Car Rental Services
This online car rental solution is fully functional and flexible
i) It is very easy to use.
ii) This online car rental system helps in back office administration by
streamlining and standardizing the procedures.
iii) It saves a lot of time, money and labor.
iv) Eco-friendly: The monitoring of the vehicle activity and the overall business
becomes easy and includes the least of paper work.
v) The software acts as an office that is open 24/7.
vi) It provides custom features development and support with the software.

3: FEASIBILITY STUDY

3. Feasibility Report
Preliminary investigation examine project feasibility, the likelihood the
system will be useful to the organization. The main objective of the feasibility
study is to test the Technical, Operational and Economical feasibility for adding
new modules and debugging old running system. All system is feasible if they are
unlimited resources and infinite time. There are aspects in the feasibility study
portion of the preliminary investigation:

Technical Feasibility
Operation Feasibility
Economic Feasibility

3.1. Technical Feasibility

The technical issue usually raised during the feasibility stage of the
investigation includes the following:

Does the necessary technology exist to do what is suggested?

Do the proposed equipments have the technical capacity to hold the data
required to use the new system?
Will the proposed system provide adequate response to inquiries, regardless of
the number or location of users?
Can the system be upgraded if developed?
Are there technical guarantees of accuracy, reliability, ease of access and data
security?

4
 Earlier no system existed to cater to the needs of Secure Infrastructure
Implementation System. The current system developed is technically feasible. It is a
web based user interface for audit workflow. Thus it provides an easy access to the
users. The databases purpose is to create, establish and maintain a workflow among
various entities in order to facilitate all concerned users in their various capacities or
roles. Permission to the users would be granted based on the roles specified.
Therefore, it provides the technical guarantee of accuracy, reliability and security.
The software and hard requirements for the development of this project are not many
and are already available in-house are available as free as open source. The work for
the project is done with the current equipment and existing software technology.
Necessary bandwidth exists for providing a fast feedback to the users irrespective of
the number of users using the system.

3.2. Operational Feasibility

Proposed projects are beneficial only if they can be turned out into information
system. That will meet the organizations operating requirements. Operational
feasibility aspects of the project are to be taken as an important part of the project
implementation. Some of the important issues raised are to test the operational
feasibility of a project includes the following: -

Is there sufficient support for the management from the users?

Will the system be used and work properly if it is being developed and
implemented?
Will there be any resistance from the user that will undermine the possible
application benefits?
This system is targeted to be in accordance with the above-mentioned issues.
Beforehand, the management issues and user requirements have been taken into
consideration. So there is no question of resistance from the users that can undermine
the possible application benefits.

5
The well-planned design would ensure the optimal utilization of the computer
resources and would help in the improvement of performance status.

3.3. Economic Feasibility

A system can be developed technically and that will be used if installed must still be a
good investment for the organization. In the economic feasibility, the development
cost in creating the system is evaluated against the ultimate benefit derived from the
new systems. Financial benefits must equal or exceed the costs.

The system is economically feasible. It does not require any addition hardware
or software. Since the interface for this system is developed using the existing
resources and technologies available, there is nominal expenditure and economic
feasibility for certain.

5: System Design
5.1 Module design:
Software design sits at the technical kernel of the software engineering process and is
applied regardless of the development paradigm and area of application. Design is the
first step in the development phase for any engineered product or system. The
designers goal is to produce a model or representation of an entity that will later be
built. Beginning, once system requirement have been specified and analyzed, system
design is the first of the three technical activities -design, code and test that is required
to build and verify software.

The importance can be stated with a single word Quality. Design is the place
where quality is fostered in software development. Design provides us with
representations of software that can assess for quality. Design is the only way that we
can accurately translate a customers view into a finished software product or system.
Software design serves as a foundation for all the software engineering steps that
follow. Without a strong design we risk building an unstable system one that will be
difficult to test, one whose quality cannot be assessed until the last stage.

During design, progressive refinement of data structure, program structure, and

procedural details are developed reviewed and documented. System design can be
viewed from either technical or project management perspective. From the technical
point of view, design is comprised of four activities architectural design, data
structure design, interface design and procedural design.

5.2. Data Flow Diagrams
A data flow diagram is graphical tool used to describe and analyze movement of data
through a system. These are the central tool and the basis from which the other
components are developed. The transformation of data from input to output, through
processed, may be described logically and independently of physical components
associated with the system. These are known as the logical data flow diagrams. The
physical data flow diagrams show the actual implements and movement of data
between people, departments and workstations. A full description of a system actually
consists of a set of data flow diagrams. Using two familiar notations Yourdon, Gain
and Sarsen notation develops the data flow diagrams. Each component in a DFD is
labeled with a descriptive name. Process is further identified with a number that will
be used for identification purpose. The development of DFDS is done in several
levels. Each process in lower level diagrams can be broken down into a more detailed
DFD in the next level. The lop-level diagram is often called context diagram. It
consists a single process bit, which plays vital role in studying the current system. The
process in the context level diagram is exploded into other process at the first level
DFD.

The idea behind the explosion of a process into more process is that
understanding at one level of detail is exploded into greater detail at the next level.
This is done until further explosion is necessary and an adequate amount of detail is
described for analyst to understand the process.

A DFD is also known as a bubble Chart has the purpose of clarifying system
requirements and identifying major transformations that will become programs in
system design. So it is the starting point of the design to the lowest level of detail. A
DFD consists of a series of bubbles joined by data flows in the system.

6: Implementation Of Project
6.1 Introduction of Django Framework

Django is a free and open source web application framework, written in Python. A
web framework is a set of components that helps you to develop websites faster and
easier.

When you're building a website, you always need a similar set of components: a way
to handle user authentication (signing up, signing in, signing out), a management panel
for your website, forms, a way to upload files, etc.

Frameworks exist to save you from having to reinvent the wheel and to help alleviate
some of the overhead when youre building a new site.

11: LIMITATIONS

Car Rental Services is a web application and it is restricted to only limited types
of users. In this application, different types of managers have been given access
rights and they are restricted up to their functionalities, so that the data is
maintained securely and redundant data is prevented. As the Data is stored
electronically, it is necessary to have a computer and network connection to
access the application. Here the details of Drivers are not maintained but the
account of car details and booking details done by user is maintained. In this
application only admin can make all types of updates. User can only search car
and book car on required date. Admin can only manage availability of car. There
is no option of getting password if user forgot their password. In such case User
should re-register and login again by different username.

35
12: FUTURE ENHANCEMENT

Add new car is representing the car list.

The user payment can be done as cash on delivery and online payment.
Add the current project for booking easy.
System uses for user become friendlier.
Detail of car more unified.
User easily gets their login password if user forgot their password.
