 PREFACE
The Online Shopping Mall (OSM) application enables vendors to set
up online shops, customers to browse through the shops, and a
system administrator to approve and reject requests for new shops
and maintain lists of shop categories. Also on the agenda is
designing an online shopping site to manage the items in the shop
and also help customers purchase them online without having to
visit the shop physically. Our online shopping mall will use the
internet as the sole method for selling goods to its consumers. The
consumer will be in complete control of his/her shopping experience
by using the “unique storefront” concept. Shopping will be highly
personalized and the mall will provide lower prices than most
competitors. This, in brief, is a description of our product which will
showcase a complete shopping experience in a small package.
 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

for providing me the excellent opportunity to do a project Online
Shopping Mall and providing me with all the essential elements
required for the completion and enhancement of this project.

I am also grateful to MR. AJAY KUMAR SHARMA (CO-ORDINATOR

M-TECH(CSE) & HOD (IT )), for his expert guidance and cooperation
in making my project a learning and worthwhile experience.

I would like to thanks those respondents who have taken pain in

 INTRODUCTION
Online Shopping Mall System is a web-based application intended
to provide automated solution and services to customer. Consider
a Business organization which have all of its business through
INTERNET i.e., WEBSITES.

The Business Organization has its offices in few states and

normally use courier facility to deliver the product .If possible
home delivery is also possible.

This Business Organization mainly has two sectors first one is sale
which sale the product to the customer and second is service
which is provided to the customer.
BUSINESS ORGANIZATION

SALE
SERVICE

Online Shopping Mall provide sales and service to customer by

interaction with customer. The success of a company is mainly
based on its satisfied customers, which in turn gives huge profits.

Retaining existing customers is also an important job of a

company. Online Shopping Mall concentrates on the retention of
customers by collecting all data from every interaction, every
customer makes with a company from 'all' access points whether
they are phone, mail, web or field. The company can them use
this data for specific business purposes viz., marketing, service,
support or sales
 REQUIRMENTS

 ANALYSIS AND DESIGN

Online Shopping Mall offers a platform for people to read product

reviews online. So they can research well about the particular
product they wish to buy in future. Now a days people depend on
internet much more for shopping products online. But they are
not sure whether the product they are purchasing is good or bad.

At My Online Shopping Mall Reviews, people can research the

products and later they can buy it from the same website itself.
We have good list of product reviews for all categories such as
clothing, garments, men's accessories, women's accessories,
health and beauty products, electronic products, mobile phones,
computer and laptops, books and magazines, furniture, sports
goods, jewelry, office supplies etc.

System Analysis is a management technique, which helps in

designing a new system or improving an existing system. System
Analysis is the process of gathering and interpreting facts,
diagnosing problems (if any), using information to recommend
improvements to the system. There are four basic elements of
system analysis:-Output, Input, Files, processes. For
computerization of any system, the existing system must be
thoroughly being understood to determine “how the computer
can be best used to make its operation most effective”. This is
acquired by analyzing existing system.

UML Diagrams :
Why Use UML?

As the strategic value of software increases for many companies,

the industry looks for techniques to automate the production of
software and to improve quality and reduce cost and time-to-
market. These techniques include component technology, visual
programming, patterns and frameworks. Businesses also seek
techniques to manage the complexity of systems as they increase in
scope and scale. In particular, they recognize the need to solve
recurring architectural problems, such as physical distribution,
concurrency, replication, security, load balancing and fault
tolerance. Additionally, the development for the World Wide Web,
while making some things simpler, has exacerbated these
architectural problems. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was
designed to respond to these needs

1.USE CASE
A use case is a set of scenarios that describing an interaction
between a user and a system. A use case diagram displays the
 relationship among actors and use cases. The two main
components of a use case diagram are use cases and actors.

An actor is represents a user or another system that will interact

with the system you are modeling. A use case is an external view
of the system that represents some action the user might perform
in order to complete a task.

Activity Diagram:
Activity diagrams describe the workflow behavior of a system.
Activity diagrams are similar to state diagrams because
activities are the state of doing something. The diagrams
describe the state of activities by showing the sequence of
activities performed. Activity diagrams can show activities
that are conditional or parallel.

 FUTURE SCOPE FOR ENHANSEMENT
1. The Online Shopping Mall at present not provide service
through telephony, but in Online Shopping Mall we can
provide it in future.
2. Automatic mail sending facility is provided to the customer
,that purchases the product
3. Live help will be provided in the future
4. Websites will be mounted using secure http connection.
5. Shopping Mall employees are responsible for internal affairs
like processing orders, assure home delivery, getting
customer's delivery-time feedback, updating order's status
and answering client's queries online
 CONCLUSION
After completing this project I came to a conclusion that the
computer programming appears catchy if and only if the problem
is difficult. I concluded that the approach, which is predefined and
presumed.

From a proper analysis of positive points and constraints on the

component, it can be safely concluded that the product is a highly
efficient GUI based component. This component can be easily
plugged in many other systems. Also the component is user
friendly.

Neither the help nor the beautification of the problem says

anything. It is the common logic, which is applied with some
common sense, which blends together to develop the mental
approach of person.
