Reservation Management System in PHP
Abstract : The management and booking of Rooms in hotels is a tedious and complicated task especially if it is done manually. Keeping track of large customers and all their details requires an inordinate space for file cabinets, not to mention the time the hotel administrator would spend going back and forth to file cabinets so as to look up each customer’s information. This is why a good hotel reservation system is needed to make this task as easy as possible. This paper shows how the noted complicated human task can be solved by using a database Management System together with scripting and programming languages like Html and PHP respectively as the key tools in the development of a hotel reservation System. The system was developed using the object-oriented software development approach which includes the use of object-oriented analysis, object- oriented design and objectoriented programming. This was done so that the developed software can be maintainable, reliable and scalable.
? The website provides complete information regarding currently running movies on all the screens with details ofshowtimings, available seats.
? Ticket reservations are done using credit card and can be cancelled if needed.
? Our online tickets reservation system is one ofthe best opportunities for those who cannot afford enough time to get their tickets reserved standing in long queues.
? People can book tickets online at any time of day or night. Our reservation system also provides option to cancel the tickets which are reserved previously.
? It solves the problem of the existing system by providing a more efficient, effective and user-friendly way of room reservation.
? This was done so as to know if the system can meet the identified system requirements and solve the problem of the existing system.
? The problem of slow paper filing systems will be solved and also making records and accounts easily accessible to add and retrieve.
? The many-to-many relationship often causes problems in practical examples of normalized databases, so it is better to break many-to-many relationships into a series of one-to-many relationships.
• Design is the first step in the development phase for any techniques and principles for the purpose of defining a device, a process or system in sufficient detail to permit its physical realization.
• Besides tourists from other KSA need to call directly for booking purposes. So they cannot get the chance to view their apartment rooms or hotels rooms before they make book.
• The purpose of this modeling language is to visualize the design of the system.
• It gives a graphic over-view of the actors involved in a system directly. It shows how different functions needed by the actors how they are interacted.
? Reservation is the most important part of any hotel system, this process should be efficient so it can serve the commercial goals of the hotel.
? Performance: the system will be designed in a way to respond to user’s needs quickly through the use of an application server (i.e.WAMP).It can also cope with the required volume of transactions through the use of MySQL database management system.
? This will help hoteliers to control all reservations that come from different sources in a single control system, distribute rooms favorably to different online channels and analyze the contribution each sales channel provides to revenue, identifying the most efficient ones.
? The management of Grand Villa Hotels have seen the need to move from their current system of room reservation to a more efficient and less time consuming method which is already in the system.
