CSC8416 Advanced Java Programming: Payroll System Project Plan

This document presents a project proposal for a Payroll Management System developed using Advanced Java (Java Swing) with NetBeans 8.0 for the front-end and XAMPP server for the database. The system aims to assist small businesses in managing employee wages, taxes, and salary details efficiently, reducing manual effort and saving time. Key features include managing employee details, user authentication (employee/HR login), and easy data modification. The project plan outlines activities from research to implementation and testing, addressing challenges such as GUI design and database connectivity. The application seeks to provide an interactive GUI with efficient data management options and database backup. Desklib offers this and other solved assignments to aid students.

Payroll Management System
Abstract
“Payroll Management System” Project will be designed to help HR of the
company to manage all the employee payment details and manage the
employee tax payment details. The system is designed on basis of
business. The project will help to reduce the efforts to calculate wages,
taxes, and salary. It will help to save the time of HR and also help to
manage all the details very efficiently.

small size business. A small businessman can use the system which will
reduce efforts and time to manage details of employee. Proper
authentication is required in payroll system (Hughley C.W. 2016, p. 977-
981).
Motivation
To help the small businessman I get motivated to design a payroll system
which will help to manage employee wages, taxes, and salary details. The
payroll system also helps to reduce efforts to manage details.
System structures
Hardware requirements for the system:
Harddisk: 80 GB RAM: 512 Mb or more, Processor: Intel i3 5 generation.
Software requirements for the system:
Web Server: phpMyAdmin server, Database: XAMPP server.
Language used: Advanced Java (Java Swing) and for front-end NetBeans
8.0.
Functions
a. The system helps to manage employee wages, tax, and salary details.
b. Easily add and remove employee details in the system (Cates S.V.
2015, p.1-5).
User requirements
The only user requirement for the “Payroll management system” is the
operating system. It can be Windows 7, Windows XP or Windows 8.

Additional features
a. In the system, users can login as an employee or as an HR.
b. The details can be modified very easily without taking many efforts.
Inherent complexities and challenges
To manage all the employee details and to design user-friendly GUI for
“Payroll management system” application and to establish java database
connectivity are the challenges.
Project Plan
Items Activity date range Activities
1. Week 1- Week 2 Research work for application
2. Week 3- Week 5 Find all requirements for
application.
4. Week 6- Week 10 Practical implementation of
the application.
5. Week 11- Week 13 Run application for the various
test case.
Conclusion
In this application, there is only one critical area that to reduce the effort
for calculating the wages and tax details of employee. The application will
have an interactive GUI having various options to manage the details
efficiently. Database connectivity will be established for the system and
also there will be a backup for the application and database.
