• Enter student information with different categories based on payment reasons/amounts
• Handling payment information bybank card/check as well as Cash
• Proper handling of new Departments/Classes
• Creation of new users and authority management.
• Security Handling
• Database Backup/Database Recovery

• Password management
• Proper Graphical User Interface
• Proper Links with MsWord/Ms Excel
• Internet Usage
• Client/Server Architecture

S/W Requirements:

Part 2

• UsingVisual Studio, create a project for your proposed application.
• Createa sample splash screen for your application (a splash screen is a screen that runs at program startup). This screen should have the application name, your name, the date, and a descriptive note about the purpose of the application. Include a graphic that fits the project; you may use any public domain graphic (i.e.: no licensed or copyrighted material!) or create your own graphic.

Part 3

Update Part 1

It is known that many things can change between the design and implementation. Update your Application Proposal (shown as Part 1) and complete the following tasks.

• What items you will be able to create and how you will create them?
• Createa storyboard (graphic) and list of menu and screen items to delineate your proposed user screen(s) and menus. Include a starting list of the classes you believe will be useful to your application.
• Listand describe any user data inputs and outputs your application will require and produce.
• If you will be using data validation as one of your techniques, list and describe the criteria needed for each proposed field.
• Using Visual Studio,create sample classimplementations. These will be code stubs that provide the basis for the classes you will be using.

Part 4

Create the Final Application proposed in Part 1.

• Compile and test the application before you submit it.
• If your final project does not match the proposed design exactly, document the differences.

List the differences between the design document specification and the final implementation.

• the application plus all project files (code files and other project files);
• documentation of differences between proposed design and final product.
