RECORD ENTRY SYSTEM
ABSTRACT
The objective of the record entry system is to develop a login-based record keeping system, which has nested menus and different interfaces for different sets of users.
The application contains separate interfaces defined for an administrator and employees. The application provides a basic menu, which has menu options for both types of users. According to the selection made by a user, the user is prompted to enter his login name and password. On successfully validating the user name and password, a menu is displayed to the user according to his level. For example, an employee after logging into the system, can record his Log In and Log Out timings.
The project demonstrates working with date and time in C, showing ‘*’ characters when user types the password, user authentication and two levels of menus for each type of user. The project also adds validations on user input to ensure proper data entry into the database.
The project uses various C concepts, such as while loop, if statement and switch case statement to display the required functionality.
