ABSTRACT


University Student Payment System ‘USPS’ is an online base bespoke application system. It is mainly an accounting system but it is not a conventional accounting system. It has some specialty; it is specific only for student. Students will be able to pay their tuition and other semester fees online using this system. Guardian will able to pay their students fees through online and able to see the student financial statement. It has various message options to notify transaction information like as mobile, emailing also own messaging system. On demand University Student Payment System users will be able to view receipts, payment statement from anywhere in the world using Internet.

At the primary stage of developing University Student Payment System, we have studied similar systems. Most of systems are e-commerce system. USPS has some similarity with e-commerce system, because students have payment their fees using their bank account, credit or debit card and using their mobiles through third party payment gateway.

Requirement collection, analysis and design are the part of the software development process. It is discovering the purpose of the system its help to design application. In this system uses various methods. Interviewing is one of them. Use case, Data flow diagram, flow chart are design base on system analysis.

Iterative methodology has been used to develop University Student Payment System. Iterative methodology is one of the most uses software developing method in Software engineering field. It is very suitable for bespoke software application. Because its allow more flexibility for changes. Planning, Requirements, Analysis and Design, Implementation, Deployment, Testing and evaluation are the part of iterative methodology.

University Student Payment System very scalable and secure system and it is easily customizable on future demand. It has some limitations. University Student Payment System uses Oracle Platforms and Oracle are not free it’s required a licenses from Oracle corporation, USA. USPS (University Student Payment System) has no integrated payment gateway but it has an option to interface with third-party payment gateway service provider. Develop own payment gateway and incorporate within University Student Payment System is our future plan. In future University Student Payment system transfer to open source technology for relieves software licensing issue and open the access for new software engineer.



CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION


1.1 University Student Payment System (USPS)


University Student Payment System (USPS) is an online based application software that integrates account related issues for students, guardians, and the accounts department of an University. At present World University of Bangladesh (WUB) is using manual account payment system. But it has many limitations. The present manual system is not capable of providing quick complete account details on request of students, guardians and exam control. Due to manual processing of payments, long ques are often created in front of accounts department. As a consequence this student often misses their classes and exams. In order to get rid of those problems we have developed University Students Payment System.

Using this University Student Payment System student and their guardians will be able to pay various university fees online using their debit or credit cards. Students and their guardians will be able to see all payments records any time they wish. They will also be able to see future payment schedules. They will be able to print receipts as well. The accounts department of the university will be able to generate various types of reports on a particular student of a batch for a particular month or for any time period. The account department will be able to track down all pending payments of any student with few clicks.

1.2 Justification


In manual system students manually pay their fees in accounts department. Every time long que is generated due to this staffs of accounts dept also faces several problems attending so many students at the same time.

In order to eliminate this type of Problem and saving the valuable time as well as make simple and friendly complete payment system. We recommended online payment system. It is the solution to solve the present problematic system. It may improve the whole process of this WUB especially accounts departments.

The proposed system is online based software. This application securely keeps student information and keeps financial transaction record. Student easily pays their fees and accountant taken the fees from the student very easily. After the transactions system will inform user through various way like mobile messaging, email and application own messaging system.



1.3 Objectives:


The objectives of the project are as follows:

1.      To design & develop an online payment system through which students/ parents will be able to make payments and print/ view receipts, payment history from virtually anywhere.

2.      To enable the accounts department of the University to keep the payment records stored in a secured manner and to generate various types of reports on the basis of the payments of the students.



CHAPTER- 2: OVERVIEW


     2.1 Literature Review


Before starting the analysis and design of USPS we have studied similar systems well. There is no similar research result that covers all the aspects that we would discuss. Most of the research results in the area of payment system are concerned with e-commerce. Nevertheless, the following are some that are related to our proposed model.
 
Discuss a multi-user electronic bill presentment and payment model that enhance the current billing systems as well as overcome the problems of the periodic generation of billing reports and mail volumes. The biller sends the detailed bills to the consolidation website and the summery to the customers. The registered customers (of the consolidation website) could check and pay the bills at any time. Here, the consolidation website could have many registered-biller clients.

Presents a pilot project to determine the feasibility of adopting an application service provider solution to support procurement by multiple federal agencies using a variety of different legacy transaction systems.

      2.2 University Student Payment System (Overview)

      
The simplest way to pay student fees is online, by debit or credit card, using the University’s secure payment system the following cards are accepted:

  • Credit card processing for VISA and MasterCard
  • Debit card processing for DBBL Nexus card, Brac Bank debit card
  • Bank Account processing for Dutch Bangla Bank, Brac Bank
This system is secure and operates in conjunction with SSLCOMMERZ. A receipt will be sent to the e-mail address used when making the payment. Student should keep this as proof of payment. This business process covers the management of student payment system for the University where any fees are managed in the student management system.

  2.3 Scope of the study


The purpose of USPS is to manage and calculate all student financial information, including tuition fees and other charges, receivables, invoices, payments and refunds.

  • Ensures timely and accurate charges are applied to students and sponsors
  • Minimizes or eliminates manual intervention required to charge fees by using a rules based
  • Methodology triggered by attributes of the student, course and units of study enrolled.
  • Informs students and sponsors of their obligations in a clear, accurate and timely manner
  • Facilitates easy payment by students and sponsors
  • Provides ease of access to account information for students, encouraging self-service
  • Students can easily access information about amounts owing, including a breakdown of Charges and payment due dates.
  • Clear and transparent charging methodologies (maintaining quality and integrity of information)
  • Recognition of full fee with any discounts acknowledged as credits on the student account
  • Charges should be automatic based on rules
  • Account posting to Finance should be automatic and daily
  • Account reconciliation should be regular and easy.
  • Minimizes the administrative work for staff.
  • Minimizes or eliminates manual intervention required to charge fees by using a rules based
  • Methodology triggered by attributes of the student, course and units of study enrolled.
  • Information is available to the right people.
  • Reporting capabilities are well developed.
Integrates efficiently and effectively with the Finance System





3.1      Methodology


We have used the iterative methodology to accomplish University Student Payment System web development project. This methodology is designed to take care of such big projects. The large and complicated projects chiefly demand better development and testing procedures. The iterative methodology is well known for its repeated testing process. Hence, we choose iterative methodology for developing software solutions. Iterative development is a way of breaking down the software development of a large application into smaller chunks. In iterative development, feature code is designed, developed and tested in repeated cycles.  With each iteration, additional features can be designed, developed and tested until there is a fully functional software application ready to be deployed to customers.

Typically iterative development is used in conjunction with incremental development in which a longer software development cycle is split into smaller segments that build upon each other. Iterative and incremental development is key practices in agile development methodologies. In agile methodologies, the shorter development cycle, referred to as an iteration or sprint, is time-boxed (limited to a certain increment of time, such as two weeks). At the end of the iteration, working code is expected that can be demonstrated for a customer.

Iterative development contrasts with a traditional waterfall method in which each phase of the software development life cycle is “gated.” Coding doesn’t begin until design of the entire software application is complete and has gone through a phase gate review. Likewise, testing doesn’t begin until coding is complete and has passed necessary phase gate reviews.

Iterative_development_model_V2
Figure 0:1: Iterative Model



The purpose of working iteratively is to allow more flexibility for changes. When requirements and design of a major application are done in the traditional method (sometimes referred to as BDUF or Big Design Up Front), there can be unforeseen Iterative development prescribes the construction of initially small but ever-larger portions of a software project to help all those involved to uncover important issues early before problems or faulty assumptions can lead to disaster.

Iterative life cycle model does not attempt to start with a full specification of requirements. Instead, development begins by specifying and implementing just part of the software, which can then be reviewed in order to identify further requirements. This process is then repeated, producing a new version of the software for each cycle of the model.

Requirements of the complete system are clearly defined and understood. When the project is big. Major requirements must be defined; however, some details can evolve with time.

Planning


Planning is an objective of each and every activity, where we want to discover things that belong to the project. An important task in creating a software program is extracting the requirements or requirements analysis. Customers typically have an abstract idea of what they want as an end result, but do not know what software should do. Skilled and experienced software engineers recognize incomplete, ambiguous, or even contradictory requirements at this point. Frequently demonstrating live code may help reduce the risk that the requirements are incorrect.

Once the general requirements are gathered from the client, an analysis of the scope of the development should be determined and clearly stated. This is often called a scope document.

Certain functionality may be out of scope of the project as a function of cost or as a result of unclear requirements at the start of development. If the development is done externally, this document can be considered a legal document so that if there are ever disputes, any ambiguity of what was promised to the client can be clarified.

Implementation, Testing and Documenting


Implementation is the part of the process where software engineers actually program the code for the project. Software testing is an integral and important phase of the software development process. This part of the process ensures that defects are recognized as soon as possible.

Documenting the internal design of software for the purpose of future maintenance and enhancement is done throughout development. This may also include the writing of an API, be it external or internal. The software engineering process chosen by the developing team will determine how much internal documentation (if any) is necessary. Plan-driven models (e.g., Waterfall) generally produce more documentation than agile models.

Deployment and Maintenance


Deployment starts directly after the code is appropriately tested, approved for release, and sold or otherwise distributed into a production environment. This may involve installation, customization (such as by setting parameters to the customer's values), testing, and possibly an extended period of evaluation.

Software training and support is important, as software is only effective if it is used correctly. Maintaining and enhancing software to cope with newly discovered faults or requirements can take substantial time and effort, as missed requirements may force redesign of the software.

3.2      Phases / Steps


Incremental development slices the system functionality into increments (portions). In each increment, a slice of functionality is delivered through cross-discipline work, from the requirements to the deployment. The unified process groups increments/iterations into phases: Inception, Elaboration, Construction, and Transition.

  • Inception: Identifies project scope, requirements (functional and non-functional) and risks at a high level but in enough detail that work can be estimated.

  • Elaboration: Delivers a working architecture that mitigates the top risks and fulfills the non-functional requirements.

  • Construction: Incrementally fills-in the architecture with production-ready code produced from analysis, design, implementation, and testing of the functional requirements.

  • Transition: Delivers the system into the production operating environment.

3.3      Advantages


  • Generates working software quickly and early during the software life cycle.
  • More flexible – less costly to change to change scope and requirements.
  • Customer can respond to each built.
  • Lowers initial delivery cost.
  • Easier to manage risk because risky pieces are identified and handled during it’d iteration. 
  • In iterative model less time is spent on documenting and more time is given for designing.                                                                                                         

3.4      Disadvantages

           

§  Needs good planning and design.
§  Needs a clear and complete definition of the whole system before it can be broken down and built incrementally.
§  Each phase of iteration is rigid with no overlaps.

 

 



CHAPTER- 4: REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS AND DESIGN

 

4.1 Requirement:


Requirements process is the part of software development in which people attempt to discover what is desired. This presupposes that there is some objective need, and analysis will reveal what that need is. To make things more complicated, any project has a number of different stakeholders with different interests, and it is usually not feasible to incorporate all desires of all stakeholders. Choices have to be made and somebody has to put some effort into making the stakeholders accept the resulting requirements specification.

          Finding out what the problem is, and what kind of solution is desired (steps 1–3)
          Drawing up a requirements specification for the desired solution (steps 4–6)
          Maintaining the requirements specification when requirements change later on in the project (step 7) In each phase we can distinguish four different kinds of activities:
·          Preparation: getting organized before you start, finding out what you are going to do and whom we may want to talk to, etc.
·           
          Elicitation: going out and finding requirements, by asking people, observing, reading documents, etc.
           
          Engineering: putting things together: specifying what elicited and observed, organizing and combining things. There is always an element of design involved.
           
          Negotiation and decision making: This is politics, rather than engineering, but is an inevitable part of getting a requirement specification accepted. The complete life cycle model is shown in Figure 1. The phases cycle through the different activities, yielding our seven steps:
Figure 0:1 the Requirements Life Cycle



In order to find out the requirements we have used interviewing techniques.

4.2 Interviewing


Total number of interviewing people 10 (Ten)
  • Students – 05
  • University Accountant - 01
  • Exam Control Executive - 01

The interviews Questions are Below:

§  University Accountant
o   Question:  Sir, we are developing a Student Payment System (SPS) for our thesis project. Can you describe how to collect various fees from student and how do you store it in the register?
o   Answer:   I cannot answer this question. I require permission from higher authority.

§  Exam Control Executive
o   Question: Sir, we are developing a Student Payment System (SPS) for our thesis project. How to collect student financial statement; please describe the statement collection procedure?
o   Answer: It is a university internal matter. So cannot describe you. It’s requires permission from high authority of the university.

§  Students
o   Question: How do you pay your tuition fees?
o   Answer:  Every student tell us they pay their tuition fees in accounts sections.

o   Question: Do you feel any bothering to pay your fees?
o   Answer: Most of them students tell they feel nuisance, because almost in accounts sections student maintain a long queue to pay their fees.

o   Question: Do you pay you fees all at once or in installment per semester?
o   Answer: All most every student pay their fees in installment and a few of them pay all at once.

o   Question: Is there any option to pay fee online or any other method?
o   Answer: No, There is no option to pay fee online. All fees are collected by accounts department.




o   Question: Is there any option to collect or view previous financial statement?
o   Answer:  There no easy way to collect or view previous statement. It is very painful when students lost their payment receipt.

o   Question: Is there any option to guardian know financial statement?
o   Answer:  Options available not so easy.


Findings from the interviews:

Everybody keep their viewpoint like student’s wants to pay their fee in online they are not very comfortable with the current system. That works very lengthy. And reporting opportunity is very low.

Guardian wants to keep update themselves that his/her boy/girl gives tuition fee timely and they also wants to view total transaction history at a glance. 

University Accountant have many problem to keep fast and secure the student payment record as per their customize reporting.

Exam Control Executive has dependency on accounts department manual reporting. They want online system to see real-time transaction update.

After considering all of requirements we develop a system design to overcome all complexity of current system.

CHAPTER- 5: DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT


The purpose of design phase is to plan a solution of the problem Specified by the requirements document. This phase is the first step in moving from the problem domain to solution domain. The design activity often results in three separate outputs: architecture design, high level design and detailed design.

5.1      Design specification


The topic provides idea regarding general structure of application keeping system constrains and functionality, in view. The design mean to plan or sketch out the form and method of a solution. The design represents the major characteristics of the final system and determines the upper bound in quality for the system. System design emphasizes on two aspects of a system:

  1. Dividing the system into component.
  2. Defining interrelationship between systems.

System design consists of two steps:


  1. Logical design
  2. Physical design

Logical design


The logical design of a system pertains to an abstract representation of the data flows, inputs and outputs of the system. This is often conducted via modeling, using an over-abstract (and sometimes graphical) model of the actual system. In the context of systems design are included. Logical design includes ER Diagrams i.e. Entity Relationship









 

 

Diagram and Use case Diagram



 

 

 

Physical design


The physical design relates to the actual input and output processes of the system. This is laid down in terms of how data is input into a system, how it is verified/ authenticated, how it is processed, and how it is displayed as In Physical design; the following requirements about the system are decided.

  • Input requirement.
  • Output requirements.
  • Storage requirements.
  • Processing Requirements.
  • System control and backup or recovery.

Put another way, the physical portion of systems design can generally be broken down into three sub-tasks:

  • User Interface Design
  • Data Design
  • Process Design

We divided the project design into four modules


  1. Input design
  2. Output design
  3. Database design
  4. Control design

Input design


Once the output requirements have been finalized, the next step is to find out what data need to be made available to the system to produce the desired outputs. The basic documents in which these data are available need to be identified. If necessary, these documents may have to be revised or new documents may have to be introduced.

Output design


The starting point of the design process is the proper knowledge of system requirements which will normally be converted in terms of output.

Database design


Database design is the process of producing a detailed data model of a database. This logical data model contains all the needed logical and physical design choices and physical storage parameters needed to generate a design in a Data Definition Language, which can then be used to create a database. A fully attributed data model contains detailed attributes for each entity.

The term database design can be used to describe many different parts of the design of an overall database system. Principally, and most correctly, it can be thought of as the logical design of the base data structures used to store the data. In the relational model these are the tables and views. In an object database the entities and relationships map directly to object classes and named relationships. However, the term database design could also be used to apply to the overall process of designing, not just the base data structures, but also the forms and queries used as part of the overall database application within the database management system (DBMS).

 

Control design


The control design indicates necessary procedures which will ensure correctness of processing, accuracy of data, timely output etc. this will ensure that the system is functioning as per plan.

5.4      Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)


An entity-relationship (ER) diagram is a specialized graphic that illustrates the relationships between entities in a database. ER diagrams often use symbols to represent three different types of information. Squire box commonly used to represent entities. Oval represents attributes. Diamonds represent operations. Lines represent relationships between entities.
