EXPENSE MANAGER SOFTWARE
Introduction
An expense manager software is a crucial need for the modern day chain of works. In
this report, the design and development of on such software is going to be discussed, with fair
importance to the implementation changes and other choices.
Software Functionalities
The Expense Manager software is being designed and developed using the C#
programming language. The following forms are being implemented:
 A view page for all the options available.
 A view to add new Payees to the system.
 A view to add new expenses to the system. This is to be made dynamic to assess the
user’s needs.
 The financial report view to allow the user to set date ranges and get the expense
records that fall in the same.
 A prediction view page to predict the expense to be made by the user on the
following date.
Software Design
Interface Design
The interface for the program has been designed with keen attention to User Interface
paradigms. Most preference was given to invalid data handling and inter-page navigation or
reversal of action. This was done by adding a Back or Cancel button to every page. Also,
message boxes have been used to respond to erroneous user inputs.
