Saint Louis University On-the-Job Trainees Bachelor of Science in Information Technology JULY 2018 Red Cross MAAB System Overview This Section provides a description of the Red Cross MAAB system including its definition, primary goal, context, capabilities and utilization. Definition The Red Cross MAAB System is an intranet Web based system unifying the personnel of Philippine Red Cross Baguio City Chapter to have the privilege to register new memberships, monitor memberships and handle renewal of membership with the use of either mobile phones, tablets, laptops or computers which are connected on the system's network. Objectives To help Philippine Red Cross Baguio City Chapter in: • Automating their manual membership system. • Lessening the use of paper and save it for other paper works. • Properly monitoring membership most especially those Expiring Membership. • Having a backup of every data. • Having a protection against data loss, and in order to avoid the risk of losing paper works or folders caused by misplacement, fire hazard and water hazard. • Make the registration more easy and reliable. External Hardware In this section, all of the hardware components to be used for the implementation of the system will be specified. These are following external hardware needed: • Client Hardware: o Employee Workstations - personal computers used by the employees to perform the tasks for Red Cross MAAB System. o User Client - personal smartphones/MSO MAAB registration computer used by clients to communicate with the Red Cross MAAB system over the intranet. • Server Hardware: o Authorized Staff Workstation - a computer used by authorized staff in keeping the data and facilitating the MAAB System. MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS These are the necessary specifications of the server computer to have, in order to the run the Red Cross MAAB system. • • Windows 7 (32/64 bit) Intel Processor or AMD Processor • Built in discrete Graphics Card • 1 GB RAM • 5 GB available hard drive space • Broadband Internet/ Intranet Connection Networks: o Local Area Network - the Red Cross MAAB internal local area network (A network that associates devices and share a common communication line) that will be used for computer communication among employees, clients and the Red Cross MAAB system. Software This is the necessary software of a computer device to run the Red Cross MAAB system. • Browser - a software tool that runs on employee and user personal computers/mobile devices that allow them to communicate with the Red Cross MAAB system over the network. • WAMP Server - software tool that runs on the server computer that hosts the Red Cross MAAB system and its database. External Roles The Red Cross MAAB system interacts, either directly or indirectly with the following significant roles: • Employees - any person from Philippine Red Cross Baguio City Chapter o Accountant - authorized staff who performs accounting functions. o Cashier - authorized staff that handles the receiving and disbursing of money in a establishment. o System Administrator - any authorized staff that ensures the data in the system are correct. • Users - any person that will avail Philippine Red Cross Memberships. o Clients - Users that will register and renew their membership to Philippine Red Cross. Rationale for Project Development At the day of the orientation, one of the task that was demonstrated to the onthe-job trainees is facilitating the red cross membership. Upon observing, the client will write the necessary information to the membership form. After gathering the necessary details, the process will proceed to SI and payment. At the end of the day all of the data in membership forms will be encoded to a single excel file. The current MAAB registration relies on the use of paper in recording data of the clients availing the membership. There is a backup for every data recorded, but only with the use of a spreadsheet application. During our duty at the Multi Service Office, we encountered and observed some problems at the MAAB registration. These are the problems that we assessed: 1.) Not all information and new membership are recorded. 2.) Some of the details of are incomplete. 3.) Some of the unrecorded membership forms are missing. 4.) The company doesn't have complete past records that may be used for future references. 5.) The company’s way of monitoring expiring memberships is by retrieving the data one by one from a spreadsheet application and by having a list of contact details and to easily notify the person. During the orientation it was also suggested to the on-the-job trainees to automate the MAAB registration process. With all of these observations, we decided to create a system that may help the development of Red Cross Membership process. We aim to help the Red Cross Baguio City Chapter to ensure the integrity of the information, monitor the recording of membership and also to lessen the workload and stress to missing papers. The system was designed to bind both clients and staffs, to make the Red Cross Membership process faster and efficient. The system can be accessed through a browser with the use of either a mobile phone or a computer that is connected within the same network as the server and it is only accessible within the Multi-Service Office. With the implementation of the Red Cross MAAB system, paper works will be lessened and the system will provide a better way of registering, managing and monitoring the information of the client memberships. The system’s data is stored in a centralized database which provides data uniformity across the authorized staff terminals and it can handle large data without affecting the performance of the computers connected to the system. The database can only be accessed within the server computer in order to secure the information of the clients. Server computers will be managed by the authorized staff wherein the data can be accessed, remove and updated through the system. This is also to ensure the security of database. Features of Proposed Web-Based Application In order to help Red Cross Membership, we designed the system into simple way to use it. The system capabilities are the following: • Easily create membership and save the information to the database. • The application can be used through mobile phone browser. • Deletion of data upon registration is available. • With the same network, Computers/mobile phones can access the homepage of the system. Clients can only view the registration while the system’s database can only be viewed on the server computer. • Membership accommodated to the current date can be easily seen at the “Registration” page of the system. • Active membership can be seen at the “Membership List” page and it is automatically sorted out based on the membership type or level. • A table of the list of Expiring members for the next month is also available to the “Expiring Members” tab. • “Save to excel” button is provided, in order to easily save a copy of a specific table to the computer of the staff. • An “Archive” tab is provided, in order for the company to easily identify expired memberships. System Flow of Proposed Project Upon the deployment of the proposed project, the new system will be utilized only for the Red Cross Membership. Refer to Figure 1.0. With the use of available computers and mobile phone, the user can easily access the system. For the Membership, the staff will assist the client through the registration. If the client had already chose a specific type of membership, they will be asked to personally input their information or will be needing the assistance of the staff to guide the clients on entering their information whether using a mobile phone or with the use of the MAAB registration computer. Figure 1.0 The flowchart for the flow of designed system If the user will use mobile phone, they will be tasked to connect to the network, open the browser and type the URL ”192.168.2.112” and it will automatically redirect them to the registration page. On the other hand, if the user is using a computer simply open the “PRC MAAB System” icon and it will redirect to the registration page. After which, simply click the create new membership button and input all required data. The client should ensure all the data inputted is correct before adding. In case that the client inputted wrong details, the client should approach the staff for the deletion of the data and input the data again by clicking “Create New Membership” button. After that, the client’s data will now proceed to SI and payment. After completing the process of the membership, the staff or the client should input the OR Number and ID Number. The staff should take note that the OR Number and ID Number is filled up and correctly or else the data or information will not be inputted to the database. In case the data is not recorded to the system, there is a possibility that the ID Number is already existing or duplicated and/or there are important details that are not filled up. After ensuring all data is correct, it will now be saved to the database. If the staff would like to access membership list and expiring membership simply click the tab and the database will be accessed easily. The staff can sort search and save the following data to excel. If the Staff would like to see the past records simply go to archive tab to see all expired memberships. Authorized staff can only see the all of the records regarding Membership List, Expiring Membership List and the Archived Memberships.
