ABSTRACT
Salon Management system is a online website that shows saloons and their services to its users and allows booking appointments online. The aim of the study is to Design and Implement an Online Salon Management System. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out as follows to design and develop an application software that will convert the manual process of salon management into an online platform with mobile app support, hassle free accounting and inventory management system for salon and provide a user-friendly environment for the management of salon and its customers.
The motivation that led to the implementation of the proposed system is the problem faced with the ongoing salon management process is that it requires quite a lot of manual and paperwork. People wait a lot in queue for his/her turn but our website is probably based on reducing that problem, as the students/peoples will be able to directly made an appointment in their favorite salon and manage their appointment according to their convenient.
The methodology adopted in this study is the structured system analysis and design methodology (SSADM) which is a technical approach for analyzing and designing an application or system by applying object throughout the software development process. The programming language used is HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT, PHP, SQL and JQUERY. The reason why web programming languages was used is because, it is platform independent and it is a web based application. This project will be of benefit to Management of the salon, Employees of salon and Customers and clients. This system provides the user with the saloon details, their images, rates, services, and even portal for customers' feedback where people can voice their opinions regarding the experience, at a particular saloon. The expected result is an Online Salon Management System that will connect users and Salon in an online platform where user can browse salon and their services and the end-users can also write and read reviews of the salon and its management.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 Introduction
A salon management system is a website that manages the appointment scheduling functionality. This system connects users and Salon in an online platform where user can browse salon and their services. Users can also write and read reviews of the salon and its management. Salon management system helps the industry to fill this void in such a way that is on-demand, easy to use, and effective. The final product will be a functioning web application that can handle use cases like user account registration, login/logout, appointment scheduling, writing, and reading review for specific salon. This system provides the user with the saloon details, their images, rates, services, and even portal for customers’ feedback where people can voice their opinions regarding the experience, at a particular saloon. It also provides salon search and discovers various services. It provides its customers a platform to evaluate choices for a great salon for grooming.
As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
1.2 Background of Study
The 21st century is said to be century of inventions, century of development, century of globalization because no one can end up the day without using any kind of embedded system products. It makes human life very smarter and to feel comfortable. Being a salon client today is inconvenient. The customer have to remember that the customer need to make an appointment, then hope he or she remember during business hours, and finally scramble to find the phone number and take time out of his or her busy day to make the call. And never mind finding user reviews of local salons, tracking those down somewhere on the web is a headache that most don’t even attempt.
This is the experience of countless salon-visitors every day. As traditional methods of hair salon are inefficient, therefore proposed system is known as “smart hair salon management system” is considered here. The proposed system is based on embedded system. In this system, first the customer messages or call to the salon then worker at the salon accepts this message or call. Worker first calculates how many customers are waiting as well as predefined time for particular activity to give reply of that message. When the customer comes in particular given time, worker give service to it according to their demand. Similarly, the process is continues and queue is formed based on the functions.
The traditional system of hair salon was manual and insecure because there was no any counting system of customers coming in the salon which creates sometimes major issues. The customer as well as the owner faces the problems (Yonan, 2009). These early systems are dependent on paper- pencil systems for billing purpose that means the records of bills of customer and the workers working in their salon are in written form. The records may get wrong due to anyone’s mistake. There is difficulty in maintaining records of all these tasks manually. Hence, proposed system is the best solution of avoiding all these problems. Salon manager are often responsible scheduling staff members, training new front desk workers (Nevonprojects, 2021). Since salon is a service sector, so the success of hair salon depends on the satisfaction of customer. The business of salon is totally dependent on customer satisfaction.
1.3 Statement of Problem
The problem which is being faced with the ongoing salon management process is that it requires quite a lot of manual and paperwork. People wait a lot in queue for his/her turn but our website is probably based on reducing that problem, as the students/peoples will be able to directly made an appointment in their favorite salon and manage their appointment according to their convenient.
1.4 Aim and Objectives of the Study
The aim of the study is to Design and Implement an Online Salon Management System. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out as follows to design and develop an application software that will:
- Convert the manual process of salon management into an online platform with mobile app support.
- Hassle free accounting and inventory management system for salon.
- Provide a user-friendly environment for the management of salon and its customers.
- Provide and generate timely and accurate reports.
- Provide a better searching facility for the management and customers.
- Organize and secure the records in proper implementation and design of the database.
1.5 Significance of Study
The relevance of the proposed research work will be beneficial to the following;
- Management of the salon: with the implementation of this platform, it is believed that it will enhance the business process of salon, it will also somehow a way to promote its business in digital world.
- Employees of salon: employees of the salon can also be the beneficiary of this study because with the use of this system they will no longer record the transactions manually and rest assured that the records will be safe and accurate.
- Customers and clients: news, promos, updates and setting of appointment is one click away. The project will also be available in mobile devices which mean that the implementation it is very convenient on the part of the customers.
