1 Introduction

Overview:
Walmart is a group of retail stores, supermarkets, discount centers, and small grocery
stores that was founded by Sam Moore Walton in Oklahoma, USA in March 1918.

become one of the favorite choices for many people and it forms a significant
importance for many companies, and it highly helped making customers' lives easier as
the site contains everything you can imagine in all sections such as food products,
household, health and many more. Therefore, the site aims to facilitate customers' lives
and reach them in every place and time

Problem:
It's sometimes be difficult for people to go shopping for themselves, especially under
there circumstance with COVID-19 and curfew, therefore more people are directed
toward e-grocery such as Walmart website. A number of problems have been noticed
through using Walmart website:

 Customers receive their orders with missing items, either because it's out of
stock and there's a delayed in updating products in the site or it was an
employee mistake.
 Inefficient estimation of the delivery time.
 Some payment methods may be disrupted, which not allowing the customer to
complete the purchase.

Factional requirements:
Defining the roles of site participants and users:
Wal-Mart: It puts the products on the site with a description of them and also divides
them into categories according to their nature and displays them to the site's visitors
with a virtual shopping basket and payment methods.
Users: Users can create their own account that contains their information, also users
can save the finished products from the stock in the wish list and refer to it whenever

3
they want, and the electronic cart is available so that the products are loaded for them
until they finish shopping and complete the payment by the available methods.
Employees: takes care of the technological aspect of the site and keeps it from breaches
while ensuring its continuous development.

2.1Input Design
- Users login/create account
Description: Walmart provides the ability to create an account for its new users where
they initially fill only important information which are first and last name, e-mail
address and create an account password. If users already have an account, they can log
using their e-mail and password. For more usage convenience, users can keep the sign
in by checking the "keep me signed in" checkbox. Also, in case of forgetting password,
users can click on "forgot password?" hyperlink.
Achieved input objectives:
 reduce input volume - only essential information are asked
 Ease of use - high user readability
Simplicity -2 steps process

- Searching/Adding items to the cart

Description: Walmart website provides users with variety of search options, users can
look for a particular item either from (departments) and select the wanted section, or by
typing item name, brand or type in the search bar. Once users find items they want,
they can specify the quantity of each item and then add it to the shopping cart.
Achieved input objectives:
 Flexibility - users have different methods to search for items
 Consistency of information – items of the same type are grouped in one
department/section

5
- Checkout fulfilment
Description: Once items have been selected and submitted, detailed
information are requested from users for delivery purpose. Users are
required to fill their delivery address details in addition to the payment
method.
Achieved input objectives:
 Accuracy - validation checks and inputs control, whenever the inputs are
inappropriate the textbox will be colored red
 Flexibility - users are supplied with many different payment methods
 Security –before completing the order, users can ask the site to not sell their
personal information

2.2Output Design
-Search result
Description: based on users search, number of products that meet the specifications
will be shown on the screen. Results can be filtered by users to match their needs and
wants.
Achieved input objectives:
 Effective results that match users requirements and ability
for further filtering and adjustment of results
 Deliver appropriate quantity of products that may be
suitable for users
-Invoice
Description: as soon as user confirms order, an invoice will
appear that contains order details including: subtotal,
shipping/delivering fees, taxes, order total and payment
summary.
Achieved input objectives:
 Output is delivered on time – once user click the confirm
button the invoice is shown promptly
 Output is where it's needed and directed to the right user – Walmart site provides
an effective methods to ensure presentation of information on the right place to
the right person

2.3.3 Details of normalization

The term "database normalization" refers to a process of organizing data in a

database. Normalization is a method of decomposing tables in order to remove
duplication (repetition) and undesirable characteristics.

First normal form(1NF):

First, columns should all be single valued it should not contain multiple value.
customer Customer Customer Product product price Quantity total Invoice Invoice
name address name code num date
num
Maha 9662323 Abqaiq TV ca6 300$ 1 300$ 123 24-Nov

 Second, remove repeating groups, the primary key with repeating attributes are moved
into a new table.

Second normal form (2NF):

Remove any partially dependent attributes and place in another relation. Partial
Dependency occurs when an attribute in a table is dependent on only a part of the
primary key rather than the entire key.

Third normal form (3NF):

Removing any transitive dependency which is when a non-prime attribute relies on
other non-prime attributes instead of relying on prime attributes or the primary key.
