INTRODUCTION

Defect Tracking for Improving Product Quality and

Productivity (DTS) is an automated system that can
be useful to employees and the managers in any
functional organization. DTS gives the facility to
define the tasks in the organization and also allows
the managers to track the defects spent by the
employee for that particular task. A report
generation facility is supported in DTS that allows
the managers to analyze which are those skills by
employee are utilized and those which are not
utilized. This tool can help managers for defect
estimation per component. This tool helps
employees to document their defects and analyze

This project aims at creation of a Defect Tracker

System. This project will be accessible to all
manufacturers and its facility allows manufacturers
to focus on creating the database schema and
while letting the application server define table
based on the fields in JSP and relationships
between them. This system provides the following
facilities.

OBJECTIVE
To keep track of employee skills and based on the
skills assigning of the task is done to an employee.
Employee does defect capturing. It can be done on
daily basis.
Various Reports are generated by this System for
an employee and as well as to a manager

VISION

The purpose of Defect Tracking for improving

product quality and productivity is to provide better
service to the administrator or useful for
applications developed in an organization.

SCOPE

The Defect Tracking for Improving Product Quality

and Productivity is a web based application that can
be accessed throughout the organization. This
system can be used for logging defects against an
application/module, assigning defects to individuals
and tracking the defects to resolution. There are
features like email notifications, user maintenance,
user access control, report generators etc in this
system.

EXISTING SYSTEM

The

existing system consists of entering the

details in the Microsoft Excel Sheets for the
storing of the data. When a manager needs
information of the employee he searches for
the specified file in the file system. He
opens the file and takes the information.
Report Generation done manually by
copying the content of the different files into
another file. The Manually generated report
was then printed.

LIMITATIONS IN EXISTING
SYSTEM

Information retrieval is a very big process.

Lack of organization of the files may prone to
information loss due to accidental deletion of files.
No security because the files are visible to the
users.
Report generation will be a big task.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

The

Proposed system is a web-application

which is completely related to online
system, which provides the centralized
database. It stores defects data and
description of the particular defect data. It
can also create Excel reports and PDF
documents based on the information in its
database.

ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM

The performance is increased due to well designed

database.
Security is increased
Time saving in report generation
Easy to update the details

EMPLOYEE MODULE:
This

module is mostly targeted on the

requirements of the employee, where the
employee can view and update his
performance. Some of the activities of an
employee that were integrated in this
module are, an employee can register him
self to the system, an employee can log in
to the system. An employee can change his
password and he can update his profile, he
can Update his Skills, he can prepare a
schedule for his tasks, he can view the task
status, he can change his manager.

MANAGER MODULE:
The

manager modules deal with the roles of

the manager which are integrated into the
system. A Manager can do all the tasks that
the employee can do in his module in
addition to that some special tasks that a
manager can do are Add/ Delete
employees, Add / Delete tasks and View
Bench.
