    Efficient Courier Tracking System Project

    This document proposes a courier tracking system that allows customers to track packages at each point in the distribution process. The system would have modules for administrators and users. Administrators can view user and package status information, while users can login to view the current status and location of their packages by entering a tracking number. Each distribution point would have a system to manually enter package information as it passes through, updating a central database so customers can track progress in real-time.

    Efficient Courier Tracking System Project

    Courier service providers usually have a very large network across countries. A
    courier goes through several places including distribution center and delivered
    using transportation services like, aero plane, ship, road transport etc. All
    customers would like to track their consignment through online or via email or
    SMS, whatever options that might be convenient to them. Customer can track
    his/her order, till where the courier has been reached just by logging in and
    entering courier number to track the location of the package. Here we propose a
    dedicated courier tracking system where customer may check the status and
    location of his/her courier. Here every distribution channel terminal has a system
    operated by authorized people at that particular point of distribution. Each
    distribution has login access. On logging, the person needs to make an entry of a
    package number that should be reaching to him/her. This data is directly
    uploaded to the main system that now keeps track of latest location and status of
    the package through an active internet connection. The data stored on server can
    now be used for live package status tracking by customers. Customers may login
    in to the server in order to enter their unique courier tracking number. On
    entering the number system, they get the last recorded status of that particular
    package and shows this data to the user. The user may now track his package as
    and when needed. The courier tracking system can be further improved by adding
    a barcode to every package so that every point just needs to scan the barcode
    instead of doing a manual entry of package number.
     Modules:

    The system comprises of 3 major modules with their sub-modules as follows:

    1. Admin:

     View User: Admin can view all information about the user.
     View package status: Admin can view the package status.

    2. User:

     Login: User can login his account using id and password.


     View package status: User can view the package status.
    Project Lifecycle:

    Description
    The waterfall Model is a linear sequential flow. In which progress is seen as
    flowing steadily downwards (like a waterfall) through the phases of software
    implementation. This means that any phase in the development process begins
    only if the previous phase is complete. The waterfall approach does not define the
    process to go back to the previous phase to handle changes in requirement. The
    waterfall approach is the earliest approach that was used for software
    development.
     Hardware Requirement:

     Processor – Dual Core


     Hard Disk – 50 GB
     Memory – 1GB RAM

     Software Requirement:

     Windows 7
     Python
     Django framework
     MySQL database
     Advantages

     Receiver can track his courier or ordered goods.


     This system can be used in several different domains for tracking
    goods sent by someone.
     It even helps the authority to keep an eye on sent goods.

     Limitation
     Authority at every point has to manually enter the location of the
    goods.
     User does not get the exact location of its order.

     Application
     This can be used by Online Shopping companies to provide online
    tracking of order to their customers.
     This System can also be used by Courier companies to let the receiver
    track his courier.
