ABSTRACT
Theme/Purpose:
As there is need of sending reports , assigning work, one can do this without working that there offices .Developing A Web based application for sending and receiving reports and excepted work from Project Managers ,Team leaders
Project description:
Project Management Tool (PROJECT MANAGMENT TOOL) is an automated system that can be useful to employees and the managers in any functional organization. PROJECT MANAGMENT TOOL gives the facility to define the tasks in the organization and also allows the managers to track the efforts spent by the employee for that particular task. A report generation facility is supported in 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 Project estimation per task. This tool helps employees to document their efforts and analyze
This project aims at creation of a Project Management System. This project will be accessible to all developers and its facility allows developers to focus on creating the database schema on the basis of JSP while letting the application server define table based on the fields in JSP and relationships between them. This system provides the following facilities.
INTRODUCTION
Motivataion:
A Project Management Tool has been known to unravel even the best project plan. A good project management Tool needs to know how to harness the initial excitement that comes with starting a project and use it to maintain motivation - leading to success throughout the project’s lifecycle. We now know that contemporary project managers need to be more than just schedulers and contract managers. They need excellent skills in managing those complex human elements that have the potential to bring any project that should be completed within a given period of time.
Motivation In Companies is regarding through the Project Managers,Team Leaders,and the Testers who in all guide the programmer through the Software Lifecycle.
Background:
There are so many softwares available in the market like Open Source,Microsoft Project, Open Workbench, OpenERP, OpenProj etc .Microsoft Project (MSP, MSOP or WinProj) is a project management software program, developed and sold by Microsoft, which is designed to assist a project manager in developing a plan, assigning resources to tasks, tracking progress, managing the budget, and analyzing workloads.
MS Project was the company's third Microsoft Windows-based application, and within a couple of years of its introduction it became the dominant PC-based project management software. Project creates budgets based on assignment work and resource rates. As resources are assigned to tasks and assignment work estimated, the program calculates the cost, equal to the work times the rate, which rolls up to the task level and then to any summary tasks and finally to the project level
Project Management Tool has background in Open Source Software , but the problem is that we have no such solution to get all charts and symbols regarding the process of our overall project in just one click.
Need:
Recent present system are generally contains the work of doing manual entry with Excel sheet. At the time when Manager needs employee Information he has to search for particular employee And make the use of the worksheet for their performance in Project ,and they will access that file for report generations.
This project is aimed at developing a Project Management Tool that is of importance to an organization. The PROJECT MANAGMENT TOOL is used to track the programmers activities, project work flows and summarize all related activities with the total hours spent and percentage efficiency utilized and generate a report for the same.
Our aim is to make a Web Based Application that can help the users of our system to see their Record performance & they can transmit their Projects to Projects Manager .The Project Management Tool is a web-based application for primarily providing training to the employees who provide customized solutions to meet organizational needs .This application software has been computed successfully and was also tested successfully by taking “test cases”. It is user friendly, and has required options, which can be utilized by the user to perform the desired operations.
Project Managment Tool may incorporate a method for collecting time for customer billing,project time tracking, and/or attendance. The needs of the organization should drive the requirements of the Project Managment Tool . For example, an Information Systems department may bill only for 40 hours per week when 60 hours are worked. If the billing information is used to plan the next project, there is a very real risk that the project effort will be underestimated.
a. Projects Manager: This module will be responsible for adding new projects and allows updating the previous projects according to their project ID.
b. Tester: This module is responsible for testing the modules of particular project and submitting the test details on the server.
c. Reports: Display the current status of all projects or modules in details in different
formats.
Project creates budgets based on assignment work and resource rates. As resources are assigned
to tasks and assignment work estimated, the program calculates the cost, equal to the work times
the rate, which rolls up to the task level and then to any summary tasks and finally to the project level.
De Wit (1988) and other writers distinguish between project success (measured against the overall objectives of the project) and project management success (measured against the widespread and traditional measures of performance against cost, time and quality). The second distinction is also important – it is the difference between success criteria (the measures by which success or failure of a project or business will be judged) and success factors (those inputs to the management system that lead directly or indirectly to the success of the project or business).
Project management is an important department in an organisation. Project manager is a sort of connecting link between senior and junior level management. A project management means a process of planning, managing resources and working together to achieve a common goal. Furthermore, Project management includes five steps of system development life cycle i.e. initiation, planning, controlling, closing and development. (Project_management)
Definitions:
A project management can be defined as “A process of planning, monitoring, control and reviewing projects by using principles and techniques.” (http://www.businessdictionarydefinition/...ement.html)
“A phenomenon where definition, control, planning, deployment and monitoring comes together to get a common benefits is known as project management.” (Definitions.asp)
“A project management is a summation of all models and methodologies which needs individual task completion.A project undertaken by well known university in New Zealand is to design and develop complaint management system for students in a university.
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. Existing project work often involves lots of paper work, sheets and other manual data entry tasks. There is also little visibility among team members as to what the status of each task is during the course of a project.
